Fire Door Signs for Safer Buildings

Fire doors play a critical role in slowing the spread of fire and smoke during fire emergencies, buying staff and visitors valuable time to escape. However, fire doors can only play this role if everyone follows the correct procedures. 

Our range of Fire Door Signs ensures everyone knows exactly how fire doors should be treated, whether they must remain closed, kept locked or must not be obstructed at all times

Far from just being a helpful tool, Fire Door Signs are legally mandated under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. This piece of legislation requires businesses and organisations to provide clear safety information across their premises, including proper fire door signage to support evacuation plans and fire risk assessments.

By displaying fire door signage across your site, you demonstrate compliance with these regulations, minimise legal risks, and ensure fire doors can play their intended role in the event of a fire emergency.
