What is an edge-lit exit sign combo?
A compact life-safety fixture that combines an edge-lit EXIT panel with integrated emergency lamp heads—delivering clean aesthetics and code-ready egress lighting from a single unit.

Each fixture features a laser-etched acrylic EXIT panel—clear, mirrored, or frosted—illuminated from the edge by low-wattage LEDs. Built-in emergency lamp heads activate during power loss, providing at least 90 minutes of battery-backed lighting in compliance with UL 924 and NFPA 101 standards. Adjustable heads ensure targeted coverage along exit paths or stairwells.

Edge-lit combo signs are often used in place of bulky plastic fixtures when architectural integration matters. Their minimalist appearance complements upscale interiors while still delivering critical life-safety functionality.
