Let’s break down your project needs step by step- think of this as your
friendly guide to code-compliant, durable, and visually intuitive tactile systems in Canada.
Where Are You Installing? Indoors, Outdoors, or Both?
The location of your project matters! Canada’s weather can be harsh, and indoor vs. outdoor tactile systems have different needs:
- Outdoor Tactile Warning Systems: Need something that laughs in the face of snow, rain, and salt? Our cast-iron and stainless steel tactile domes are built to withstand Canadian winters while providing reliable slip resistance.
Perfect for sidewalks, transit platforms, and parking lots.
- Indoor Guidance Solutions: For hospitals, office buildings, or schools, our polymer or porcelain tactile tiles offer a sleek, low-profile design that blends seamlessly with interiors. Bonus:
They’re easy to clean and maintain!
- Mixed-Use Spaces: Combining indoor/outdoor flow? We’ve got hybrid options that keep safety consistent across environments
How Will You Install? Let’s Talk Practicality
No two projects are the same. Choose an installation method that fits your timeline and surface:
- Wet Concrete/Cast-In-Place: Building new? Embed our ADA and AODA-compliant tactile domes directly into fresh concrete for a permanent, tamper-proof solution. Ideal for new construction or major renovations.
- Surface-Applied/Retrofit: Working with existing walkways? Our heavy-duty adhesive or epoxy-backed tactile tiles install in minutes without tearing up concrete. Great for quick upgrades or temporary setups.
- Recessed Installation: Need a flush finish? Recessed tactile indicators work wonders in high-traffic areas like mall entrances or subway stations.
What Material Fits Your Needs? Durability Meets Design
From budget-friendly polymer to rugged stainless steel, we’ve got materials to match your priorities:
- Stainless Steel:The gold standard for outdoor durability. Resists corrosion, vandalism, and heavy foot traffic. (Popular for transit hubs and public parks.)
- Polymer:Lightweight, cost-effective, and available in contrasting colors for high visibility. (Perfect for indoor wayfinding in hospitals or schools.)
- Porcelain/Ceramic: Sleek, architect-friendly, and fire-resistant. (Loved for modern office buildings and retail spaces.)
- Cast Iron: Unbeatable strength for extreme weather. (A go-to for snowy sidewalks and industrial zones.)
