Tactiles.ae was proudly selected to enhance accessibility and safety at the prestigious American University in the Emirates (AUE), located in Dubai’s Academic City. The university, known for its modern infrastructure and inclusive campus design, entrusted us to supply and install stainless steel tactile indicators both inside and outside their academic premises.
Execution Highlights:
Installation of Stainless-Steel Tactile Warning Studs across key access points.
Focus areas included parking entrances and main staircases, where tactile navigation aids were most crucial.
Our engineers executed a precision 45-degree arc layout on curved staircase landings, ensuring a smooth transition while maintaining ADA-compliant guidelines.
Outdoor applications were completed with high-durability anchoring to withstand foot and vehicular traffic.
Why This Project Matters:
Universities are spaces of diversity and inclusion. Our mission at Tactiles.ae is to support institutions like AUE in making their campuses more accessible for all students, including those with visual impairments. From safely guiding students at entryways to staircases, tactile indicators play a vital role in inclusive design.
Materials Used:
Stainless Steel Tactile Studs with anti-slip surface
Indoor studs fixed using chemical adhesive
Outdoor installations anchored for durability and slip-resistance
