Emergency Exit Signs

Emergency exit signs are signs, which feature the word “EXIT,” that are used to guide occupants out of a building during emergencies such as fires. Emergency exit signs are required by building and fire codes for all commercial, office, and industrial facilities. Over time the technology of exit signs has evolved, improving efficiency and extending product lifespan. Today there are many different types of exit signs. To figure out which model is right for you, consider the application environment, product cost, and accessibility to electricity.

For indoor applications where electricity is available, LED emergency exit signs are the most cost-effective choice. LED (light emitting diode) exit signs use between two and four watts of electricity and last for 8 to 10 years. The EXIT series is the most affordable LED exit sign that we manufacture, beginning at less than $20. The EXIT series is made from durable thermoplastic and is available in housing color choices of black or white. The EXIT series is easy-to-install and can be top, side, or back mounted. Two faceplates and one backplate are included for single and double-sided configuration.

For more durability, exit signs constructed from cast aluminum are a great choice. Cast aluminum exit signs are available in black, white, or brushed aluminum and feature the same energy efficient LEDs as the EXIT series. For high-end, indoor applications, Edge-Lit LED exit signs are the choice of architects, lighting designers, and building managers. Edge-Lit exit signs feature a recessed or surface mounted housing that contains an internal LED light strip. The light strip provides powerful illumination to a high-grade acrylic panel that is screen-printed with the word “EXIT.” Edge-Lit exit signs are available in multiple housing colors and can be customized with the wording of your choice.

Photoluminescent exit signs use eco-friendly, industrial-grade glow-in-the-dark pigment to provide reliable exit face illumination. Self-luminous exit signs are the most universally applicable exit sign available today and utilize a naturally glowing form of hydrogen. Self-luminous exit signs can be placed both inside and outside. All Exitsigns.net emergency exit signs are code compliant throughout the United States, Canada, and abroad.
