Key Features & Benefits
Multiple Material Options
Available in 3M Engineer Grade Labels, Laminated Plastic Labels, 3M Engineer Grade Aluminum, Plastic, and 40 mil Aluminum, this sign can be specified for temporary job site use or permanent facility installation. Contractors can select the material that best suits exposure conditions and longevity requirements.
Three Size Options
Offered in 5" x 7", 7" x 10", and 10" x 14", the sign can be matched to the viewing distance and wall or door space available at the installation point. Larger formats improve visibility in wide corridors or high-traffic areas.
High-Contrast Black and Red Color Scheme
The black and red horizontal design ensures the sign stands out against most wall and door surfaces, drawing immediate attention to the emergency exit restriction. High contrast coloring supports quick recognition in low-light or emergency conditions.
Horizontal Format
The horizontal orientation is optimized for placement above or beside doorways and exit routes, fitting standard architectural clearances without requiring custom mounting solutions.
