Here’s something I bet most people don’t think that much about but can be found in every building everywhere- EXIT SIGNS. Building codes require exits to be clearly marked, whether it’s an office building or restaurant or school. Talk about something we take for granted! We assume that in any public building, we will be able to figure out quickly where the exits are, and that’s where The Exit Store comes in.
Until I reviewed this site, I had NO IDEA how many different kinds of exit signs there are. They come in “thermoplastic”, steel, and aluminum. They can be self-luminous (some kind of glow in the dark material so that the sign glows without need for batteries or an external power source), or lit with LED bulbs. For “high abuse” areas like correction facilities, apartment buildings, and schools, exit signs can be made with tamper-resistant materials and even housed behind steel cages.
Different cities have different requirements for compliance, meaning that The Exit Store carries exit signs that are New York compliant as well as Chicago compliant. This is a scary yet comforting thought- what would you do if you were in a building during an explosion? (YIKES) You’d want to be able to find your way out, right? The Exit Store has an exit sign category called “explosion proof”.
The Exit Store has something for every budget, from value priced to a designer series. They work with governments, schools, businesses both big and large, profit and non-profit. Their site says they can work to find a price and product to suit any need. If you’re reading this and have a need to purchase exit signs for a building, I hope you’ve found this post useful. We might be in a recession, but some things will always be important.

I’ve always noticed there are exit signs everywhere.
They found themselves a nice niche. I wonder how they came up with the idea.
How crazy. I guess I’ve never really thought about the “exits” unless I’m on a plane and they always point them out to us. I guess I’d like to thank the “exit store” for providing such great products.
Thanks! It is indeed helpful! On cinemas I always sit near the exit sign!
