Quality, safety, ease of installation, and long-term reliability are designed into each product from the beginning, ensuring excellence. All products undergo functional testing using our specialized quality inspection facilities. All ABB emergency lighting products are manufactured to North American quality standards. Did you know, that fire exits are protected pathways out of the building. Exits, such as stairwells, must be protected from other parts of the building by fire-resistant materials. These materials must have a one-hour fire-resistance rating if the exit connects three or fewer floors in a building.

Peace Of Mind

Exit signs are important to have installed in every facility. In addition to making it clear how you should exit, these signs can play important roles in safety, security, communicating accessibility and more. For example, luminescent signs that are mounted over doors and are part of the emergency lighting system and serve as beacons (even if the smoke is beginning to thicken), as long as people can see the signs and know which direction to go, they have a better chance of getting out of the building without injury in an emergency.
