Unlocking the Possibilities in Egress Planning and
Life-safety Performance

Recent tragedies in subway stations, nightclubs, motels, office buildings and theaters have raised awareness for the urgent need for improved emergency exit systems. While hardware products (exit devices, closer/holders, fire doors) have vastly improved the functionality of mechanical devices, stronger and more dependable illumination solutions are needed to address the panic, confusion and poor visibility that often accompany emergency building evacuations.

The LiteGuide system brightly illuminates exit doors and enhances visibility in low-light conditions. In addition, it provides low level visibility for people looking for a way out since rising smoke can often obscure the exit sign required at the top of most exit doors. As a supplement or solution to existing building and life-safety codes, the LiteGuide system effectively improves the safety features of any public building without decreasing security. LiteGuide system components not only help people get through the doorway, but first locate the exit. The LiteGuide system is a true life-safety solution that illuminates exit locations and converts each door into a highly visible pathway to safety.

  • Comprised of the market leading door and hardware elements from CECO, CORBIN RUSSWIN, CURRIES, FLEMING, McKINNEY, SARGENT and YALE, the LiteGuide system presents luminescent egress configurations that provide superior visibility, durability and are designed to save lives
  • In providing a turnkey system, the LiteGuide system leaps over the planning and coordination issues that can bog down installation
  • By including ElectroLynx, the state of the art wiring standard from ASSA ABLOY, the LiteGuide system delivers measurable efficiencies in installation
  • Luminescent technologies provide an innovative choice to meet and supplement code requirements and make buildings safe
