Will installing these signs make the building compliant?
Compliance depends on the complete building and the applicable approvals, systems and operating
arrangements. Signs should be supplied against the approved schedule; a signage order alone does not
establish compliance.
Who should approve an evacuation map?
The responsible building or fire safety team should validate the route, exits, equipment positions and
the viewer's location. The artwork should be checked against the approved plan before printing.
Can every exit sign use photoluminescent material?
The appropriate sign and performance requirements depend on the building design and approved safety
specification. Photoluminescent products should not be treated as automatic substitutes for required
illuminated systems.
Can the sign schedule be prepared floor by floor?
Yes. Use a list containing floor, location, sign message, quantity, size, material and mounting. The
client's responsible safety team should verify that the schedule matches the approved requirements.
What should I send for an accurate quotation?
Provide the approved fire and evacuation plans, equipment locations, area names and the sign schedule
issued by the responsible consultant or facility team. Sign types, symbols, placement and performance
requirements should be confirmed by that team before artwork and production are approved.
What affects the price and delivery programme?
Dimensions, quantity, materials, finishing, lighting, site access and installation requirements affect
the quotation. Share the project deadline early. The production and installation programme is confirmed
after the scope and artwork are agreed.
