Placement Guide for Your Emergency Light Fixture

Placing an Emergency light fixture correctly starts with identifying the paths people must follow to reach safety. First, install a Blade type emergency light like the Voyager sign directly above each exit so it is visible from a distance and marks the way clearly. Second, place Emergency light fixture units along corridors and stairwells so the escape route stays lit even if one fixture is blocked. Third, cover open areas with fixtures that provide broad, steady light, such as the Guard Fit downlight, whose round lens suits open spaces and oval lens suits corridors. In a narrow hallway, a Box type emergency light provides continuous coverage along the path. For spaces where a fixed position is difficult, a Portable emergency light gives flexible placement that can be adjusted as needed. By matching each Rechargeable emergency light to its location, you build a dependable system that guides people safely through a building.
