What is a Safety Way Guidance System?

Safety Way Guidance Systems (SWGS) according to ISO Standard 16069-3.17 Safety Way Guidance Systems (SWGS) provide continuous luminous markings and direction information, for safely and effectively guiding people evacuating a location. Non-electrical SWGS, known as Non-electrical luminous egress path marking, and low location escape route lighting systems, are now commonly installed in tall buildings, under the most commonly used code- International Building Code (IBC) 2009, which followed behind the original New York City Local Law 26 R-S 6-1. Safety Way Guidance Systems shall provide the users of the building with consistent and coherent visual information, so that they can evacuate efficiently from any occupied unit, all the way to a relatively safe area. Safety Way Guidance Systems can be installed in addition, and as an essential back up to, traditional electrical high-located emergency lighting, and associated high-located escape route signs. Safety Way Guidance Systems shall be installed and activated in risk situations that have been identified by formal risk assessment. Examples of such situations include, blackout of the electrical exit path and escape route signs, due to potential failure of the power supply to the escape route lighting, the risk of smoke obscuring the exit path and emergency exit doors, or areas not protected by any form of electrical escape route lighting, due to infrequent occupancy.

Components for Non-electrical Luminous Egress Path Marking & Low Location Escape Route Lighting, for Safety Way Guidance Systems Components for Safety Way Guidance Systems are installed to form a comprehensive array of visual elements, predominantly at low level, that clearly identify the boundaries and direction of the escape path, as well as essential emergency equipment locations. In the event of a fire, smoke can block high mounted signs and luminaires (lights), and conventional electrical systems can and do fail. Evacuees and first responders may well need to crawl at floor level. Low location escape route lighting systems, with mid and low-located escape route signs, remain visible in close proximity to evacuees, marshals, rescuers and firefighters. Obstacles along the escape route are marked with photoluminescent Hazard Warning Tape or Corner-edge Trim Markers, to highlight them in all light conditions; essential if normal or all power fails. Floor mounted signs can also help in an evacuation, especially if you have difficulty making high mounted exit signs conspicuous, due to overhead obstructions. Identifying doors along the escape route, especially closed fire doors, using photoluminescent safety signs and frame markings, to clarify the route and the method to open them, is essential on the escape path, for fast and efficient evacuation. Professionals will refer to the detail in Standards, i.e. ISO 16069, IBC/ICC/IFC 2009 Section 10.24, for the code of practice and good practice for escape route signs. The UK and other jurisdictions also use BS 5499-4. Orientation; you need to know where you are in a building! JALITE emergency escape and evacuation plans with floor identification in stairways, help people locate themselves in relation to an escape route in an unfamiliar building.

Non-electrical low location lighting systems have been a legal obligation in high rise buildings, offshore oil exploration platforms, trains, passenger ships, and high-risk entertainment premises, for many years. The reasons for this are simple- it works, can save lives, and is the only system that works under all conditions. If escape paths and stairwells fill with smoke and obscure the lighting, the low location lighting system is a life saver. This easy to install and cost-effective system, requires no power, and very little maintenance, is easy to clean, and even if it gets damaged in an evacuation, it will still work.

What Standard ISO 16069 States: 5.1.3 Visual reinforcement Escape route signs positioned at low location shall be close to the way guidance lines or be incorporated in the guidance line, wherever practical. Escape route signs located at intermediary level shall be repeated at low location. 5.1.4 Location Low location shall be the principal position for guidance lines, to give perspective over distances of 10m. The height of the low location guidance lines shall be no higher than 300mm from the floor; lower may be preferred. Intermediate guidance lines may be placed at up to 1.20m from the floor, to provide visual reinforcement and to assist in the identification of guide rails, handrails, or other architectural elements along the escape route. This adds further to the perspective of the escape route over medium observation distances of approximately 10m to 20m. 5.2 Guidance lines Guidance lines, together with the luminous marking of the full frame of emergency exit doors, are the prime components of SWGS. Guidance lines shall be realized by line sources of different sizes and luminance or luminous intensities.

The guidance lines shall be as continuous as possible. No break shall exceed 0.2m, unless there are doors along the escape route. In this case the wall or floor guidance line may be interrupted, with a maximum break of 1m, or the lines shall be continued on the floor in front of the door. Door leafs shall never be marked with a guidance line.

Engineered for life safety!

Wall guidance lines which are interrupted by intersecting corridors, should be continued by using floor lines or by continuing the guidance line on the opposite side of the corridor, starting the guidance line with directional signs. The maximum height of low-located wall guidance lines above floor level shall be 300mm. If a low-located wall guidance line is interrupted, it may be continued at floor level for the duration of that interruption. An additional horizontal luminous line can be located on the wall at a height between 0.9m to 1.1m from the floor, to show the configuration of the exit route. It is preferable to provide both sides of the escape route with guidance lines. On escape routes up to 2m in width, it may be sufficient to have only one guidance line. This line may be positioned either on the floor or on the wall. In rooms or open areas escape routes shall be marked on both sides with guidance lines, or the guidance lines shall be used to define a travel path through that area.

Handrails JALITE vinyl handrail and marking tapes are second to none; installed now for well over 10 years in New York City, these tapes are durable, low profile and stay there! You really need the best! What Standard ISO 16069 States: 5.4.1 Marking of stairs, ramps and ladders A guidance line should be installed on the handrail and central supports.

Floor & Stairway Identification System Engineered for life safety!

Evacuees using unfamiliar escape stairways need total confidence in their location, in particular the floor they are on, at any point in time during an evacuation. It is vitally important therefore, that these stairways are clearly identifiable, and that each floor access is clearly numbered. It will also assist key fire personnel with their evacuation plans, enabling them to quickly locate and identify any potential risk to staff, and visitors, contained within any area in an emergency. This information must be visible under all lighting conditions. What Standard ISO 16069 States: 5.1.9 Multi-level facilities SWGS in multi-level facilities shall include a floor/level numbering and stair identification system, on all levels, at each level adjacent to the access point, and exit points within the stairwell.

Planning Escape & Evacuation for People with Special Needs requiring (PEEP) Specific Plans Current legislation requires that organisations must ensure that adequate consideration is taken for those that are challenged in anyway. This specifically includes those with mobility difficulties, the hard of hearing, visually impaired, and persons with mental health difficulties.

Part of an organisation’s fire risk assessment might show safe areas for those with disability, particularly Code: 4528K Size: 150 x 400mm wheelchair users; an effective part of the evacuation strategy. Appropriate signing for these persons is vitally important and should be inclusive for all evacuees.

5.4.6 Marking of escape routes for the specific use of disabled persons If there are escape routes designated for the specific use of disabled persons, they shall be specifically signed as such. If refuges and equipment for the assistance of persons with special needs are provided, then these shall be specifically signed as such in accordance with ISO 7010 (e.g. ISO 7010-E024 “Evacuation temporary refuge” or ISO 7010-E060 “Evacuation chair”).


Assembly Area Identification JALITE AAA photoluminescent Assembly point signs will enable evacuees to report to their designated point in a quick and timely order. The end of the escape route, in a managed evacuation is not the final exit, rather it is at an assembly point or points, where auditing of evacuees and other information may be collected. The safety management system and evacuation strategy will address, the location, use of assembly points, and use signs to make the route and location conspicuous.

5.4.5 Marking of assembly areas and safe areas at the end of the escape route. Areas intended to be used for the assembly of occupants shall be identified by safety signs in accordance with ISO 7010-E007. Escape route signs shall lead occupants from all exits to assembly areas.

Charging & Activation of Non-electrical Luminous Egress Path Marking & Low Location Escape Route Lighting, for Safety Way Guidance Systems JALITE products are manufactured to become charged and activated, even at very low levels of light; very quickly compared to competitive products. The property that characterises photoluminescent materials is called luminance decay, and is tested according to ISO 16069, ISO 17398, IBC Code, and the international American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) E 2703. JALITE AAA is classified under ISO 17398 C Class and is third party tested to conform to the requirements of IBC Code 2009 Section 10.24, and New York City Code, when charged/activated with lighting, from light intensity normally associated with emergency lights of only 10.4 lux (1ft cdl) for 2 hours. This performance level is a “worst case scenario” for any photoluminescent system, and indeed should not be taken as the service conditions. Photoluminescent materials always perform dramatically better when they are activated and charged with lighting at normal illumination levels expected on escape paths. The brightness can be increased by factors in excess of 10-20 times, in the critical first 15 minutes when power is lost, if activated with 100 lux or more. Escape paths would normally be illuminated with no less than 50 lux of lighting at floor level, and ideally more under normal non-emergency conditions. Further improvements can be achieved, when lighting is from a light source with a high colour temperature greater than 4500K. Although daylight at 6500K is optimum.
