Detectable warning plates

Thanks to their distinctive texture, detectable warning plates are used to alert visually impaired pedestrians of approaching danger to ensure their safety (e.g. on street corners). Designed with Canada’s difficult climate in mind, Laroche Foundry’s detectable warning plates are made to be resistant. They are manufactured to ADAAG (American Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines) standards and are delivered unpainted to improve visual contrast with surrounding elements.

Additionally, to help facilitate the drawing and installation process, our tactile surfaces are designed in the metric system.
