Suspended Exit Sign Installation Guidance for Safety Managers
- ❌ Installing hanging exit signs too close to ceilings where they cannot be seen from distance
- ❌ Suspending signage where lighting cannot recharge the photoluminescent surface
- ❌ Using incorrect arrow directions that do not match the escape route
- ❌ Mounting overhead signs away from the actual evacuation path
- ❌ Installing signage where suspended objects obstruct visibility
- ❌ Positioning hanging signs too far apart along long corridors
- ✅ Suspend signage above the evacuation route for maximum visibility
- ✅ Ensure ambient lighting can recharge the photoluminescent material
- ✅ Position double-sided signs where occupants approach from both directions
