WHAT IS AN AIRLOCK?


Airlock Braille Signage is used to indicate where a toilet block shares an entryway via the airlock. Airlock Braille signage normally has a divider line between the symbols to indicated the various toilets located within the space. Additional signs with more information will also be required for the doors to the individual toilets ie. Male Toilets & Female Toilets etc.

For example: Access to the toilet area may have a sign indicating that there is Male, Female, Ambulant and Accessible Toilet facilities available. This sign will display the relevant symbols and text Toilets. Upon entering the facility space there will be additional toilet signage to indicated which door provides each facility.

3D Printed Braille Signs

Here at Braille Sign Supplies, we are constantly reviewing the market and the ability for 3D printers to produce quality printed Braille Signage. Whilst we continue our research we would not recommend 3D printing of braille signage for Australian conditions. Due to the extreme conditions of our climate the ability for ink to be durable and long lasting has not been achieved in the printing marketplace.

At Braille Sign Supplies we aim to deliver robust and long-lasting Braille Signage. We will let you know as soon as we find a suitable, sustainable and durable product to provide 3D printed signs.
