Universal Mount Exit Signs – Flexible Installation for Every Building Layout
Universal mount exit signs are designed to simplify installation by supporting multiple mounting configurations—including wall, ceiling, and end mount—using a single fixture. These UL 924 listed signs come standard with a universal mounting canopy, enabling fast, code-compliant installation in any egress orientation. Ideal for schools, offices, retail stores, medical buildings, and multi-tenant spaces, they offer flexibility during both new construction and retrofit projects.
Each unit includes a clearly visible LED EXIT legend with field-selectable directional chevrons to guide building occupants toward the nearest exit. Battery backup systems provide a minimum of 90 minutes of emergency runtime during power outages, in full compliance with NFPA 101 and OSHA safety codes. Most models are available with red or green lettering, and feature dual-voltage input (120/277 VAC).
Housing options include thermoplastic for general commercial use or die-cast aluminum for architectural and high-abuse environments. Some models are also damp-location rated for installation in vestibules, stairwells, or covered outdoor corridors. Optional self-testing diagnostics further streamline maintenance by automating code-required monthly and annual tests.
