THE HISTORY OF OUR COMPANY

Old Perkins Braille Machine used by Margie to braille children's books

When Jim was a small child he would marvel at his Mother Margie's skill and generosity as she tirelessly hand punched children's books in braille on thick cardstock paper using an old Perkins Braille Embosser. This monstrosity of a machine looked like an old typewriter with only nine keys. Working as a volunteer, Margie's books were given to blind and sight-impaired children for enjoyment and education. It was hard work. Typing on this old Perkins Braille machine was arduous and difficult, often leading to sore fingers, wrists and shoulders. Margie deserves much credit for her plentiful contributions to the blind. As an adult, Jim was inspired to continue his Mother's legacy, and today, along with his two sons, manufacture braille labels and signage of all kinds for the blind and sight impaired. JustBraillesigns.com is brought to you by SCS Sign Company, a full service manufacturer of ADA braille signage. We are experts in braille signage, and some of us have been making ADA braille signs since the inception of the Americans With Disability Act signed into law in 1990 by President George H.W. Bush.

Back in the day, ADA signs were often simple, hard to find and frankly kind of boring. Even today, finding an ADA Braille sign in your color choice with your custom text for your specific need, in a modern design at a fair price can still be difficult. That's where we come in! JustBrailleSigns.com offers you the flexibility and variety to quickly and easily find the ADA signage you require in sleek customized modern designs.

We have many Sign Series Designs ready to go. Pick the Design Series you like, choose your ADA sign and colors, specify your text, and you're done! Whether you need signs for a restroom, room numbers, directional signs, or stairwell signage, each series is made so that you can purchase a variety of sign types while sticking with the same Sign Design. This keeps all your signs uniform and consistent! What about ADA regulations? Rest assured, we use "best practice" manufacturing techniques that ensure your signs meet or exceed ADA/ABA and CA Title 24 sign requirements and regulations. In fact, we guarantee our signs meet ADA requirements! Factory direct and made in the good ol' USA....it doesn't get any better than that.
