In the UK, emergency lighting exit signs must comply with BS 5266-1 and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which requires illuminated exit signs along escape routes. Signage should also meet BS EN ISO 7010 for standardised safety pictograms.
Yes, emergency exit signs in the UK should be green with a white pictogram, as green is the recognised safe condition colour under BS EN ISO 7010. This makes exit routes instantly identifiable during an evacuation.
Maintained exit signs stay illuminated at all times, while non-maintained versions only light up when the mains power fails. Most commercial and public buildings use maintained LED exit signs, so the route is always visible.
Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician, as an exit sign with emergency lights connects to both the mains supply and a built-in battery backup. We supply the products and can help with the lighting design, though we do not offer installation.
LED emergency exit signs typically last around 50,000 hours, often more than ten years of continuous use. The backup battery usually needs replacing every four to five years.
LED emergency exit sign lights should be tested monthly with a short function test and a full-duration test annually, as set out in BS 5266-1. Keeping a test log helps demonstrate compliance during fire safety inspections.
Our LED exit sign emergency lights are designed to operate for a minimum of three hours during a power cut, in line with UK requirements for most premises. This gives occupants enough time to evacuate safely.
