Oh ok. So it is part of the escape route plan?The door takes you directly outside
Yes it isOh ok. So it is part of the escape route plan?
Its basically like those glow in the dark stickers you get for kids.I don’t get out much now, but never seen one of these. I am doubtful that it will meet the relavent standards. Do you have a link to the product?
does this “sticker” light up in the event of a power failure?
Will it remain illuminated for 2 hours?
How does it “recharge” itself?
Ps. As this is an exit door, does this open on to an illuminated exit area, or will you also need an emergency light outside?
Sorry no. There is no lighting or signage directing you to that door. Basically we want to use the door as a means of going outside for fresh air but they say we can't as it's a fire exit door. I say it isn't because their is no signage and emergency light above or near the door.Oh ok. So it is part of the escape route plan?
If it's not part of the escape route then it's just a door. Has it got a push bar or handle opener on it or does it need to be unlocked before you open it?Its basically like those glow in the dark stickers you get for kids.

Well the plot thickens. Lol. It has a break glass lock on it. But also has a padlock on it which you can use to open it without breaking the glass. (But one of the managers has hide the key) It is also the only disabled access to the first floor.If it's not part of the escape route then it's just a door.
