Exit Signs

Exit Signs & Exit Lights – LED


Exit signs are essential for guiding occupants to safety during emergencies. Required by building codes in all commercial and public-use facilities, exit signs must remain visible and illuminated under both normal and emergency conditions. Whether hardwired with battery backup or using self-powered LED technology, these fixtures help maintain safe egress and code compliance.

We offer a full range of exit signage solutions to meet NFPA 101, UL 924, and OSHA standards — including LED models with backup batteries, self-diagnostic exit signs, and weatherproof exit signs for outdoor or high-humidity applications.

For more architectural or rugged applications, explore premium-grade die-cast exit signs, or pair your signage with our emergency lights for a complete egress solution.

What is an exit sign? It’s a life-safety fixture that clearly marks the path of egress and remains visible — even during a power failure — using internal batteries or self-powered LED or non-powered exit sign technology.

FAQs About Exit Signs

❓ How long must exit signs remain illuminated during a power outage?

Exit signs must remain illuminated for at least 90 minutes during a power failure, as required by UL 924, NFPA 101, and OSHA regulations.

❓ What’s the difference between red and green exit signs?

Both colors are acceptable in most U.S. jurisdictions. Red is more common in older buildings, while green is often preferred in newer construction and some state or international codes.

❓ Are exit signs required to have battery backup?

Yes. Most signs use internal batteries to provide illumination during outages. Browse our LED exit signs with backup battery for compliant options.

❓ Can I install exit signs outdoors?

Only if the sign is outdoor-rated exit signs with a sealed housing. Otherwise, use damp-rated fixtures for covered but humid areas.

❓ What is a self-testing exit sign?

It’s a model that automatically runs monthly and annual tests required by code. See our self-diagnostic exit signs for details.

❓ Do exit signs need arrows or directional indicators?

Yes — if the path to the exit isn’t obvious. Most signs include field-selectable arrows (chevrons) that can be knocked out during installation.
