Fire Escape Signage: Buying Guide


Where possible, fire exits should be kept clear at all times, and to enforce this, our emergency exit keep clear (man and mandatory symbol) signs show that fire escapes should not be obstructed, as well as indicating the route to follow to the nearest emergency exit. Such a multi-message sign is ideal for use where space is limited but you want to get more than one message across to staff and visitors.

A fire door sign informing everyone on site that an area is to be kept clear of all obstructions will help to reinforce your message and to ensure egress from a building in an emergency is not impeded.

Emergency evacuation chair signs indicate to employees and visitors where transit chairs can be found to help less-abled people to exit a building in an emergency. These signs should be placed wherever you store your transit chairs so that they can be easily found. For chairs that are tucked up out of the way, then ideally a projecting sign such as our 3D emergency evacuation chair sign should be used so that it can be easily seen from all angles in an emergency situation.

For environments where first impressions are everything, deluxe metal-look escape route keep clear signs combine prestige with value for money. Available in a choice of brushed metal finishes and a range of sizes, these signs come with an adhesive backing as standard for quick and easy installation – there is no need to drill holes in walls.

Xtra-Glo photoluminescent fire escape signs are perfect for areas indoors where bad or low light can be experienced at times, and for outdoor areas where the sign needs to be seen in the dark. Our Xtra-Glo signs are extra bright when lighting fails and will stay illuminated for 24 hours with only five minutes of charge in normal lighting conditions.

What are Fire Escape Route Signs?


Signs that direct people to the closest exits in the event of an emergency, such as a fire, are known as fire escape route signage. Fire safety signs are most commonly located in multi-storey commercial and public buildings wherever there are stairs on each floor. You may also come across them in private homes.

These signs are an integral aspect of building safety. In order to ensure that building occupants can leave safely and promptly in the event of an emergency, fire escape route signs are made to offer simple, unambiguous instructions printed on brightly coloured labels or stickers.

Local building authorities and relevant safety codes may have different requirements and regulations regarding fire escape route signs. As such, building proprietors and managers should ensure that their signage complies with these regulations and is functional in an emergency by consulting with them.

What Colour are Fire Escape Signs?


In most cases, the fire escape signs that are placed inside buildings are green. This is because the universal colour of emergency exit signage is green. The colour green is also used to point out the location of where the emergency first aid is stored. However, in some cases, you will also find a few buildings with red-coloured fire escape signs, as the second most used colour to attract the attention of people in case of an emergency is red. The meaning behind red-coloured fire escape route signs is to alert people and inform them to stop whatever they are doing, shut down and evacuate immediately.

Key Features and Types of Fire Escape Signs


  • You will often find that simple pictograms or symbols are used in fire escape route signage to indicate activities or directions. These symbols are easily recognisable by all people and do not require anyone to know how to read a specific language. In other words, the pictures on the labels are self-explanatory and easy to comprehend.

  • Fire escape keep clear signs may also consist of arrows to show the way to the closest escape route or exit. The main goal of arrows is to indicate the road to safety, making it easier for individuals to find the right route swiftly.

  • These signs also consist of minimal text-based instructions. In most cases, it’s a single word that attracts attention, or a short two-to-three-word phrase followed by an exclamation mark.

  • A key feature of fire escape signs at Seton is that they are made with special material that enables them to glow in the dark. Xtra-Glo Acrylic Emergency Evacuation Chair signs, Xtra-Glo Aluminium Fire Escape Keep Clear signs and other similar signs are beneficial when the fire causes smoke and blurs the vision of people in a building.

  • Fire escape signs are always placed at a location where they are at eye level so that in case of an emergency, they can be located immediately. Some buildings also use 3D signs such as the Emergency Evacuation Chair Projecting ‘3D’ Sign available at Seton.
