Question : How do I configure the arrows for my sign?
Answer : Many signs come with the ability to set the arrows to your preference at the time of installation. This is called 'infield' applicable arrows. Almost all signs come with field applicable arrows. Here is how they differ. thermoplastic signs have pop-out arrows that can be removed or added to your choice. Cast-Aluminum signs have knock-outs. knock-outs are where we indent the back side of the face plate with a cut in the shape of arrows requiring the tap of a screw driver or hammer to 'knock' them all the way out. It is difficult to add back knocked-out arrows because the seams are exposed. It can be done, but it looks nicer when you are accurate. Self-luminous and photoluminescent signs use stencils and/or adhesive arrows. The adhesive arrows can only be applied once. You can remove them after application but the y are designed for permanent adhesion. The stencils can be popped out. Edge-lit exit signs can have the arrows pre-specified, adhesive, or static. Our signs use either static or pre-configured in general, as the panels for edge-lits are prone to smudges and fingerprints. Our signs look great because our chevrons are designed for easy and clean installation, minus the smudges.
Question : How do I know if this exit sign is approved for use in my city/county/state?
Answer : The UL listing (Underwriters Laboratories) for of our exit signs ensures that these signs are code compliant. UL tests our exit signs and then gives their approval. This approval comes in the form of a listing. As long as your exit sign is UL listed it will work for your jurisdiction. Two exceptions exist: New York City and Chicago, which have their own exit sign specifications in addition to the UL listing.
Question : Does it matter if I choose red or green letters for my exit sign?
Answer : It only matters that you be consistent. If you have green exit signs now, purchase more green; if you have red, purchase more red. What you want to avoid is a mismatching of exit sign colors. Pick one color and stick with it. Recent studies have suggested that green exit signs are better choices because the green color makes people think, “go” whereas red makes people think, “stop”. Always check with you building/fire inspector for local/regional codes that might require red or green letters specifically. This does no apply to New York City and Chicago, as they have their own specific specifications for exit signs.
Question : How do the “EXIT” letters on the Edge-Lit types of exit signs illuminate?
Answer : The light source is LED and is contained within the housing (surface or recessed). The LEDs are on a strip that is aligned with the top of the acrylic EXIT panel. The light from the LED strip shoots through acrylic panel, illuminating the word EXIT.
