Exit Down Symbol Signage

Exit Down Symbol Signage is designed to clearly indicate that the safest way out during an emergency is located straight ahead and downwards. These signs use internationally recognised BS EN ISO 7010 symbols for immediate understanding and are legally required under the Safety Signs & Signals Regulations 1996. Installing them ensures staff, visitors and contractors can evacuate quickly and safely.

Our range of Exit Down Symbol Signs is available in rigid plastic, aluminium and self-adhesive vinyl, making them suitable for a wide variety of workplaces. Photoluminescent options are also available to ensure visibility during power failures or smoke conditions. Each sign is manufactured to a high standard to deliver long-lasting performance indoors and outdoors.

Placing Exit Down Symbol Signage in the correct positions helps reduce confusion during fire drills and emergencies. By guiding people effectively, these signs minimise panic and support safe evacuation procedures. They are an essential part of a business’s fire safety strategy and demonstrate compliance with UK regulations.
