At Morgan Fire Protection, we provide comprehensive signage solutions that not only ensure your legal compliance but also enhance the safety of your staff, visitors, and property. Our expert team delivers clear, durable, and regulation-compliant signage tailored to your specific premises and requirements.
Understanding Fire and Safety Signage: Your Legal Obligation
The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 make it a legal requirement for businesses to display appropriate safety signs wherever there is a significant risk that cannot be avoided or controlled in other ways. For fire safety specifically, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires clear signage for:
- Fire exits and escape routes
- Fire-fighting equipment locations
- Fire alarm call points
- Fire action notices
- Assembly points
- Fire doors that must be kept shut
- Areas of specific fire risk
As the responsible person for your Norfolk business, failure to display adequate signage can result in serious consequences, including:
- Substantial fines
- Potential prosecution
- Business closure until compliance is achieved
- Invalidation of insurance policies
- Increased risk to life and property in an emergency
