Fire Door Signs are universally recognised notices to ensure the protection of others and are often mandatory. Examples of fire signs include Fire Exit Keep Clear and Fire Door Keep Shut notices which are intended to help keep Fire Escape routes from becoming blocked or obstructed, and to prevent a fire from spreading. All workplaces and public spaces are obliged to have these signs on all fire exit doors in compliance with the Regularly Reform (Fire safety) Order 2005. Utilising labels on fire doors that would otherwise be disregarded as regular doors can largely reduce the extremely harmful and even fatal risks that are associated with fires.

Many Fire Door signs are available in a self-adhesive or rigid plastic with self-adhesive back materials to ensure easy application. They are also a low-cost option with the added benefit that they do not compromise the integrity of a Fire Door with drilling or screws. Fire Door signs are usually marked on both sides of the door for optimum safety and are made from a photo-luminescent material that are visible in both light and darker situations which can often still be seen in light-smoke filled environments.

As Fire Doors are designed differently, it is important to remember that they must be marked with the appropriate Fire Door safety signage according to whether the door is:

a: To be kept closed when not in use (Fire Door Keep Shut Sign)

b: To be kept locked when not in use (Fire Door Keep Locked Shut Sign)

c: Held open by an automated release mechanism (Automatic Fire Door Keep Clear Sign).
