Ceiling Mount Exit Sign and Light Combos – Overhead Egress Solutions with Integrated Emergency Lighting

Ceiling-mounted exit sign and emergency light combos provide an effective, space-efficient solution for marking egress routes in commercial and institutional settings. These dual-function fixtures combine a clearly visible LED exit sign with integrated emergency lamp heads in a single unit that mounts overhead—ideal for use in hallways, stairwells, lobbies, and open-plan corridors where wall space is limited or visibility from both directions is essential.

All models are UL 924 listed and meet NFPA 101 and OSHA requirements for emergency lighting systems. During a power failure, the built-in battery backup system delivers at least 90 minutes of emergency illumination, ensuring safe egress from the building. LED illumination provides high brightness and energy efficiency, while adjustable lamp heads offer directional lighting to cover floor areas and exit paths effectively.

Ceiling-mounted configurations typically support universal mounting plates or canopy kits that attach easily to standard junction boxes. These units are available in single-face or double-face options, with field-selectable chevrons for customizable directional guidance. Many models also offer self-testing diagnostics, helping maintenance teams automate inspections and stay compliant with monthly and annual testing protocols.

For spaces where exit visibility is needed in both directions, double-face ceiling mount fixtures are an excellent choice. If you're considering other mounting options based on your building layout, explore our full selection of end-mount exit sign and light combos for projecting from walls, or wall-mounted combos for compact, side-facing egress coverage.
