Loading... Please wait...An Emergency exit sign is a sign that produces a lighted version of the word "EXIT". Emergency exit signs are required and mandated to be installed into all types of facilities and buildings throughout the country. Local, state, and federal building codes outline the requirements and regulations for emergency exit signs.
Emergency exit signs are placed over doors and throughout corridors. They provide a visual guide along the path of egress (egress pathway) during emergencies such as fires, earthquakes, and power outages, Emergency exit signs display EXIT in either red or green and are constantly illuminated. Letters must be at least 6 inches high and feature a letter width, or stroke, of at least 3/4 of an inch.
Electrical emergency exit signs are required to be hard wired into the building's electrical system, which constantly charges the battery located within the sign. Battery backup systems are relied upon for EXIT illumination power during emergencies where power is lost. Battery backup systems will provide at least 90 minutes of emergency illumination. Monthly testing of electrical emergency exit signs and their battery backup systems is required on a monthly and yearly basis.
Glow In The Dark Emergency Exit Signs are UL 924 Listed and compliant throughout North America. A great choice if electricity is not available. photoluminescent emergency exit signs last for up to 25 years with no maintenance needed.
Self-luminous exit signs offer the same advantage of a battery operate exit sign, no electricity required! Plus, they have a 20 year lifespan.
There are two types of non-electrical emergency exit signs that meet the same code compliance requirements as electrical emergency exit signs do. Non-electrical exit signs are an ideal solution for emergency exit applications in which electrical power is not easily accessible.
Photoluminescent emergency exit signs glow in the dark, they constantly absorb light when AC power is on and then glow in dark environments. Glow in the dark exit signs are popular for commercial applications where the lighting system is normally on when the building is occupied.
Self-luminous exit signs are the second type of non-electrical emergency exit sign and are ideal for almost any applications. They are completely universal, their self-powered tritium based illumination technology is constantly luminous and lasts for 10 to 20 years depending on the model that is bought. Self-luminous emergency exit signs can be used inside and outside, in hot and cold environments.
LED Exit Signs are popular because of their low energy consumption, long lifespan, and affordable prices. A variety of styles and designs are available, one of which will work for you.
For applications that require an emergency light and exit sign, an emergency exit combo is a suitable choice and sensible solution. Emergency exit combo units are essentially an exit sign with emergency lights attached to the top or side. Only one electrical connection is needed and there is just one battery backup system to test and maintain.
There are a variety of emergency exit signs and combo models available through the online store. All models are UL 924 Listed and approved for use throughout the United States.
