ADA Compliance Built In from Day One
ADA compliance isn’t an afterthought—it’s built into our design and production processes.
We ensure all ADA signage includes:
Proper tactile letter heights and font styles
Grade 2 braille, precisely placed and tested
Color contrast and non-glare finishes for maximum legibility

You don’t want to spend weeks waiting for drawings or chasing vendors for shop details. At A.R.K. Ramos, we deliver submittals that are:
Clear and complete, including mounting diagrams and material specs
CAD-ready, fully aligned with your architectural drawings
Available with physical samples or mock plaques for client review
When changes arise—as they often do—we provide revised shop drawings quickly and clearly. Our responsiveness ensures your submittal log stays on schedule and your GCs stay happy.

& more
Our team handles everything from standard nameplates to multi-piece building signage across campuses, stadiums, and government facilities. If your project demands high detail, weather resistance, or brand fidelity—we’re equipped for the job.
Fabrication That Respects Your Timeline

We commit to:
Short lead times, with casting starting in as little as 5 business days
In-house finishing, from patinas to protective coatings
Detailed quality control, so what arrives on site is right the first time

Stud locations, hardware types, and spacing diagrams
Phone support in case site conditions differ from plan
We also offer tips on field touch-up, caulking, or anti-theft mounting options when appropriate.
This level of support helps your field teams install quickly—and correctly—the first time, reducing delays and warranty calls.
Long-Term Support and Reorders
Projects change. Names get added to walls. New rooms get labeled. Donors get recognized. That’s why we keep a record of every order and production file.
Post-installation, we offer:
Easy reorders, matched exactly to your prior specs
Finish and font consistency, even years later
Repair or refinishing options if plaques are damaged on site
Updates to ADA signage as tenant needs evolve
We become an extension of your team—available whenever you need us.

Best Practices for Your Next Division 10 Signage Scope
Before we wrap up, here are a few ways to ensure a smooth signage process:
Engage us early. We can flag code or mounting concerns before they hit your installer.
Use our finish samples. These can streamline approvals and eliminate design disputes.
Call out wall blocking early. Especially for heavy plaques or dimensional letters.
Build in expansion space. For donor walls, directories, and campus maps.
Coordinate with other trades. Especially if signage overlaps with lighting or wall graphics.
Our job is to make you look good—and deliver signage that installs easily, lasts for decades, and reflects your company’s commitment to quality.
