- Do I need glow in the dark fire action signs?
Yes, especially in buildings where emergency lighting may be limited or could fail during a power outage. UK fire safety regulations require that fire action instructions remain visible during emergencies. Photoluminescent (glow-in-the-dark) fire action signs ensure critical evacuation procedures are visible even in complete darkness, helping occupants follow proper safety protocols.
- What’s the difference between 3-point and 5-point fire action signs?
3-point signs cover the basic actions: raise the alarm, call the fire brigade, and evacuate. 5-point signs include extra steps, such as “Do Not Use Lifts” and directions to the assembly point. 5-point signs are ideal for multi-storey buildings, hotels, and more complex premises where detailed evacuation instructions are needed.
- How long do glow in the dark fire action signs stay illuminated?
Our photoluminescent signs glow for 8+ hours after just 15 minutes of exposure to normal lighting. Made with durable materials, they have a 25-year lifespan, requiring no electricity or maintenance.
- Are your fire action signs compliant with UK regulations?
Yes. All our glow in the dark fire action signs comply with BS 5499-4:2013 and ISO 3864 standards. They meet UK building and fire safety regulations for use in commercial, residential, and public buildings.
- Which fire action sign do I need for my building?
- Hotels / Guest Houses: Use hotel-specific fire action signs
- Flats / Apartments: Choose “Stay Put” signs for buildings with fire compartmentation
- Multi-storey Buildings: Use 5-point signs with “Do Not Use Lifts” instructions
- General Premises: 3-point signs are suitable for most standard applications
- Where should fire action signs be installed?
Place signs at key points, including entrances, reception areas, near lifts, stairwells, and along evacuation routes. They should be installed at eye level and be visible. Signs with “Do Not Use Lifts” should always be located near lift entrances.
- What sizes are available for fire action signs?
We offer a range of standard sizes to suit different spaces and visibility needs, from 150mm x 200mm for smaller areas up to 300mm x 400mm for large, open spaces. Custom sizes are available on request.
- Do you offer Welsh/English bilingual fire action signs?
Yes, we stock glow in the dark fire action signs in Welsh/English bilingual versions to comply with Welsh language legislation. Custom signs are available on request.
