The Photoluminescent Push to Open Sign (EMS-PO115) places clear PUSH TO OPEN instructions directly on push-bar door hardware. Its 1.5"H x 15"W LaserGlow design remains visible during low-light emergencies and power loss without requiring electrical power.
Key Features
- Clear Push-Bar Instructions: PUSH TO OPEN messaging tells occupants how to operate the door at the point of use.
- High-Visibility Photoluminescent Material: Glows in the dark to keep door-operation instructions visible when normal lighting is reduced or lost.
- Durable LaserGlow Construction: Made from 0.125" (1/8") thick, non-toxic Rowmark LaserGlow material for long-lasting performance.
- Matte, Non-Glare Finish: Helps maintain message visibility without reflected glare.
- Digitally Printed Green Text: High-contrast graphics make the PUSH TO OPEN instruction easy to identify.
- Push-Bar Format: Measures 1.5"H x 15"W for installation directly on compatible push-bar hardware.
- Zero-Energy Operation: Requires no wiring, batteries, or electrical connection.
- Interior or Exterior Use: Suitable for indoor and outdoor qualifying egress applications.
Ideal Applications
Use this sign on doors equipped with push-bar hardware where occupants need a clear PUSH TO OPEN instruction that remains visible during low-light conditions.
Potential applications include doors within exit stairways, exit passageways, and other required egress paths in healthcare facilities.
Installation
Install the sign directly on compatible push-bar hardware where the PUSH TO OPEN message remains clearly visible and does not interfere with operation of the actuating bar or touchpad.
Foam tape strips aid installation. Larger or challenging applications may require silicone adhesive; follow the installation guide for the specific mounting surface and door hardware.
Compliance
The Photoluminescent Push to Open Sign meets the UL 1994 Standard for Luminous Egress Path Marking Systems and is ETL listed to UL 924.
2024 IBC Section 1025.2.6.2 addresses luminous markings on panic hardware and requires the luminous material to extend along the actuating bar or touchpad as specified by the code.
Because it measures 15 inches long, confirm the dimensions and configuration of the push bar, the product listing, and locally adopted requirements when specifying it as part of a required luminous egress path marking system.
