The number one priority for your school is safety for all. There may be rules and regulations to follow, but when it comes to best practices for overall security, enter and exit signs are critical. Every school must be in compliance with local fire codes, and enter and exit signs can be beneficial in many ways.
Some benefits to having proper enter and exit signs are:
- Keeping your school occupants safe. All adults are familiar with “in case of emergency use the stairs” signs. These need to be posted in every staircase.
Because enter and exit signs are of such importance for everyone’s safety in stairwells, lighted signs are often used. Occupants of the school need do nothing more than follow the signs to safety. If power is off, these signs can glow in the dark and still provide guidance to everyone who is exiting.
- Self luminous signs are always on. There’s never a need to feel a concern that someone shut the signs off. Enter and exit signs such as these do not rely on battery power, electricity or external power sources for their illumination. These types of signs are the most dependable of any signs you can have in your school.
- Help visitors and first responders. In addition to everyone who works and attends school, enter and exit signs are also a great help to visitors.
They are especially helpful to first responders. Illuminated signs can point the way when police or fire fighters enter a wet, smoky or dark building. In the event of an emergency, lit enter and exit signs help emergency workers navigate an unfamiliar building.
