Custom Evacuation Signs

While generic evacuation signs can point towards exits, they cannot show a person's current location within a complex floor plan. A custom evacuation map provides a "You Are Here" locator, which is essential for occupants to orient themselves and find the safest, most direct exit route. This level of detail is necessary for an effective emergency plan and is often required for buildings like hotels, hospitals, and large office complexes.

Your sign should be simple and clear. Key elements to include are: a "You Are Here" symbol, primary and secondary (alternate) exit routes shown in different colors, the location of fire extinguishers and pull alarms, locations of stairwells, and the final destination, such as an "Outdoor Assembly Point." You can easily add all these elements using our custom sign templates, like the custom evacuation map sign with "You Are Here".

Yes, you can easily upload your own floor plan or architectural drawing directly into our online design tool. Once uploaded, you can add text, draw evacuation routes, and place standard safety symbols (like fire extinguishers or exit arrows) onto your map to create a clear and compliant custom evacuation sign that perfectly matches your facility's layout.

Yes, we offer photoluminescent (glow-in-the-dark) materials for custom evacuation signs. These signs absorb ambient light and then glow brightly for hours during a power failure or if the room fills with smoke. This is a critical safety feature that ensures your evacuation map is visible when it's needed most, helping to guide people to safety in the dark. This technology is a key part of modern egress systems, as outlined by codes like NFPA 101.
