The exit sign with emergency lights (often called a "combo") is the most efficient way to meet two safety codes at once. Instead of installing separate fixtures—one to mark the exit and another to light the floor—an exit light combo handles both tasks. This "2-in-1" design significantly reduces installation time and labor costs because it requires only a single electrical connection. Ideal for locations with limited wall space, a combo exit sign ensures your path of egress is clearly marked and brightly lit during a power outage.
Types of Exit Light Combos
We offer a wide variety of configurations to suit different building layouts and safety needs:
- Standard Combos: The most common style, featuring a thermoplastic housing with a red or green sign and two adjustable lamp heads mounted on the side or front.
- Remote Capable Units: These powerful exit sign combos feature a larger battery capacity, allowing them to power additional remote heads located 10-20 feet away.
- Wet Location Combos: Sealed and gasketed units designed for outdoor use, ensuring your exit sign with flood lights works even in rain or wash-down environments.
- High Output: Models with brighter lamps and stronger batteries for illuminating larger areas or long corridors.
Code Compliance for Combination Units
Integrating your safety systems doesn't mean cutting corners on compliance. All our emergency light exit sign units are built to meet rigorous standards:
- NFPA 101: Meets the requirement for 90 minutes of emergency illumination and visibility from 100 feet.
- UL 924 Listed: Certified for reliability and durability during power failures.
- Adjustable Lighting: The integrated heads are fully adjustable, allowing you to aim the light exactly where it is needed to meet the 1.0 foot-candle requirement on the floor.
