Accessible Wayfinding Strategy
Developing navigation systems that consider accessibility throughout the visitor journey.
Inclusive Navigation & Accessibility
Creating environments that are accessible, understandable and independently navigable through thoughtfully designed tactile, Braille and inclusive wayfinding systems.
Accessibility is more than meeting regulatory requirements—it is about ensuring every individual can navigate spaces confidently, safely and independently.
At AL RIZQ, we design, manufacture and implement inclusive navigation systems that integrate tactile information, Grade 2 Braille and accessible wayfinding principles into the built environment. Our solutions are developed to support healthcare, education, government, hospitality and commercial projects where accessibility is an essential part of the user experience.
Rather than treating accessibility as an additional requirement, we believe it should be integrated into every navigation strategy from the beginning.
- People with visual impairments
- People with low vision
- Elderly visitors
- First-time visitors
- International visitors
- People with temporary mobility or sensory challenges
When accessibility is considered early in the design process, environments become easier to understand, safer to navigate and more welcoming for everyone.

What is Grade 2 Braille?
Grade 2 Braille is a contracted form of Braille that uses abbreviations and short-form words. It is the standard used for public signage and wayfinding because it is more compact and widely recognised by Braille readers.
What is tactile signage?
Tactile signage combines raised characters, pictograms and Braille so information can be read by touch as well as sight. It supports independent navigation for people with visual impairments.
Where should Braille signage be installed?
Braille and tactile signs are typically installed at consistent heights beside doors, at lifts, washrooms, room identifiers and key decision points along accessible routes, in line with project and accessibility requirements.
Can Braille signage be integrated into existing buildings?
Yes. Inclusive navigation systems can be planned for retrofit projects as well as new builds, coordinating with existing finishes, routes and operational needs.
Do you manufacture Braille signage in-house?
Yes. AL RIZQ manufactures tactile and Braille signage using professional ADA-compliant DCS Braille technology, with quality checks before installation.
Do you work with accessibility consultants?
Yes. We collaborate with architects, accessibility consultants and project teams so tactile and Braille systems align with project objectives and applicable accessibility requirements.
Can tactile maps be customised?
Yes. Tactile maps can be designed for specific buildings or destinations to improve spatial understanding through touch and support accessible orientation.
