When to Use Photoluminescent No Exit Signs

Photoluminescent NO EXIT and NOT AN EXIT signs help distinguish doors, corridors, and other pathways that occupants could mistakenly follow during an emergency.

They are especially useful where low-light visibility is important and the surrounding egress system uses photoluminescent markings. The signs continue communicating the non-exit condition if normal lighting is reduced or power is lost, helping prevent occupants from following the wrong route.

LaserGlow Photoluminescent Sign Features

Signs in this assortment use photoluminescent Rowmark LaserGlow material engineered for visibility during low-light conditions and power failures. The material provides passive illumination after exposure to normal lighting, with no wiring, batteries, or electrical connection required.

LaserGlow signs feature durable construction and matte, non-glare finishes for interior or exterior use. Products in this assortment meet UL 1994 requirements for Luminous Egress Path Marking Systems and are ETL listed to UL 924.

No Exit Sign Requirements

NO EXIT or NOT AN EXIT signage may be required where a door, passage, or other opening could reasonably be mistaken for part of the means of egress. The required wording, letter size, placement, and luminous characteristics depend on the applicable code and the location of the sign.

The compact photoluminescent NO EXIT sign in this assortment is designed for doors leading to dead ends that could be confused with the egress path. It is intended for low-level installation below the smoke line, centered on the door with the top of the sign no more than 18 inches above the floor.

For additional code guidance, review our fire code signage requirements and confirm locally adopted requirements with the authority having jurisdiction.
