Fire Notices and Signs

• Blue and white “What to do in case of fire” fire information notices should be prominently displayed so that all building users can refer to them when necessary.
• Notices and signs should be displayed, above final exit doors, at fire alarm call points, firefighting equipment points and in reception areas. All signs must comply with the Safety Signs Regulations 1996. The following should also be clearly identified with easily visible signs (if required),
  • Manual fire call points also known as break glass call points positioned at exits and storey exits.
  • Fire extinguishers.
  • Fire escape routes.
  • Fire doors.
  • Fire assembly points.

Notices and signs should be checked as part of the weekly fire safety inspection, to ensure they remain relevant and legible.
