Detectable Warning Checklist
Enacted in 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) has changed the public accommodations of businesses and public spaces everywhere.

These regulations provide accessibility with ramps, handicapped parking and wide hallways.
One of the assistive technologies required by the ADA is the installation of detectable warnings at a curb ramp, hazardous vehicle ways, reflecting pools, and transit platform edges. Detectable warnings have bumpy surfaces that warn a blind individual or a person with visual impairments of a possible danger.
When installing or inspecting detectable warnings, this app provides a checklist of ADA compliance regulations. Some ADA standards are: Do detectable warnings contrast visually with adjoining surfaces (light-on-dark or dark-on-light)? Is the material used to provide contrast an integral part of the walking surface? This mobile form also includes fields to document items such as date, facility name, location of detectable warning, technical requirements and comments.
The Detectable Warning Checklist Mobile App allows the user to replace a paper ADA checklist with an Android, iPhone, tablet or Windows desktop computer. This app is part of a comprehensive package of GoCanvas’ electronic applications that provide solutions for ADA compliance. Although the ADA is federal law, it’s often the local governments that must oversee ADA regulations regarding businesses and public accommodation for people with disabilities. These ADA checklists help people understand and follow the guidelines to assist individuals with disabilities. Once the mobile app is filled out a secure PDF is generated. The PDF is easy to share, and a copy is stored in your account for your accessibility records. You can also use the App Builder to personalize and customize this mobile form.

“I’m not a tech guy and I was able to pick this thing up in probably an hour, and actually start to build apps. I’ve done them over lunch when I’ve gotten frustrated with a process that didn’t exist in our company. So for non tech people who’ve got a problem, the support here is awesome and I’d recommend it to anybody, not just in our industry.”
