Applications for the EOAV332 door and access sign

The EOAV332 sign can be installed directly on an emergency door, near a service access point, at the entrance to a technical room, in a corridor, near a storage room or around an area where temporary storage may create an obstruction. It helps remind people of the instruction at the exact point where the door must remain clear.

Material choice for an emergency door notice sign

Choosing a sign depends on the right material, reading distance, work environment and required format. Self-adhesive vinyl is suited to clean, smooth and dry surfaces, especially indoors or in a protected location. Plastic can be used indoors or outdoors, but colours may fade faster if the sign is exposed to UV light. Aluminum is often recommended outdoors, in workshops or in areas where impact is possible. UV-protecting lamination may slow fading, without preventing it permanently.
