Fire Exit Arrow Right Tactile Braille Signs combine raised tactile letters, tactile symbols and Grade 1 braille with a right-pointing fire exit direction. Designed to support blind and partially sighted users, they provide inclusive route guidance beside exit doors and along accessible escape routes.

Where Fire Exit Arrow Right Tactile Braille Signs Should Be Installed

Install these signs beside exit doors, corridor decision points and route changes where occupants need to confirm that the escape direction continues to the right. They are especially useful in accessible buildings, care settings, offices and public premises where touch-readable route guidance is needed.

What Better Inclusive Route Guidance Delivers After Installation

When these signs are fitted in the right places, they help make fire-exit direction easier to confirm by touch as well as by sight. In practical terms, that supports more confident decision-making, clearer route understanding at doorways and turns, and a more inclusive escape system for users who rely on tactile information.
