Safety Signage That Keeps You Compliant - Supply, installation, and compliance for businesses and landlords across Northern Ireland.

Fire safety signage might seem straightforward — but getting it wrong is one of the most common compliance failures we see. Wrong type, wrong location, missing altogether, faded beyond recognition, or not meeting current regulations. Any of these can result in an enforcement notice, an insurance issue, or — worst case — people not knowing how to get out of your building in an emergency.
Central Safety Solutions surveys your premises, identifies exactly what signage you need, supplies it to the correct specification, and installs it in the right locations. We also check and replace existing signage that’s damaged, outdated, or non-compliant.

ONE OF THE MOST COMMON COMPLIANCE FAILURES WE SEE

Safety Signage Is a Legal Requirement, Not an Afterthought

The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) require every workplace and non-domestic premises to display appropriate safety signage. This includes fire exit signs, directional signs, fire action notices, extinguisher ID signs, fire door signs, and hazard warnings.

Signage is one of the first things checked during a fire safety inspection — and one of the first things flagged when it’s wrong. Missing signs, faded signs, incorrect signs, signs in the wrong location — all of these are compliance failures that can appear in enforcement notices.

The good news is it’s one of the easiest things to get right — with the right provider.

Proper signage is required for:

Landlords &
HMO Owners
Offices &
Commercial Premises
Retail &
Shopping Centres
Hotels, Restaurants
& Hospitality
Care Homes
& Healthcare
Schools
& Education
Factories,
Warehouses & Industrial

Protecting your people, your property, your compliance.

Types of Safety Signage We Supply & Install

Every sign your premises needs, supplied to the right specification and installed in the right places.

Fire Exit Signs

Illuminated and non-illuminated fire exit signs to clearly mark every emergency exit in your building. We ensure they meet current regulations and are visible from the correct distance.

Directional Arrow Signs

Arrow / route Directional signs guide people along escape routes to the nearest exit. We assess your building's layout and install arrows at every decision point — corridors, junctions, stairwells — so the route out is never in doubt.

Fire Action Notices

Fire action notices tell everyone in your building exactly what to do when the alarm sounds. We produce notices tailored to your premises — your alarm system, your escape routes, your assembly points, your emergency contacts.

Assembly Point Signs

Clearly marked assembly points are essential for a safe, organised evacuation. We supply and install signs and help you determine the best assembly point location for your building and surroundings.

Fire Extinguisher ID Signs

Every fire extinguisher needs a sign above it identifying the type and what it should be used for. We supply and install the correct ID signs for every extinguisher on your premises.

Fire Door Signs

"Fire Door Keep Shut" and "Fire Door Keep Locked" signs are required on every fire door. We check every door in your building and make sure the correct signage is in place.

No Smoking Signs

A legal requirement in all enclosed workplaces and public buildings. We supply and install compliant no smoking signage in the correct locations.

Health & Safety Signs

Beyond fire safety, we supply general health & safety signage — hazard warnings, mandatory PPE signs, first aid location signs, electrical danger notices, and any other signage your premises requires.

Photoluminescent Signage

Photoluminescent signs glow in the dark and remain visible during a power failure without needing batteries or electricity. We supply and install photoluminescent signage for escape routes, exit doors, and equipment locations — particularly important in buildings without emergency lighting or as an additional safety measure.

Safety Signage FAQs

Yes. The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) require appropriate safety signage in all workplaces and non-domestic premises. This includes fire exit signs, directional signs, fire action notices, extinguisher ID signs, fire door signs, and hazard warnings.

It depends on your premises, but at a minimum most buildings need fire exit signs, directional escape route signs, fire action notices, fire extinguisher ID signs, fire door signs, assembly point signs, and no smoking signs. We carry out a survey to identify exactly what you need.

You can buy signs anywhere — but getting the right type, the right specification, and installing them in the correct locations is where most people go wrong. Incorrect signage is a compliance failure. We make sure everything is right first time.

Photoluminescent signs absorb light and glow in the dark during a power failure. They're particularly useful in escape routes and stairwells where visibility is critical. Standard signs rely on ambient or emergency lighting to be visible. We'll advise which type is appropriate for each location in your building.

Signage should be checked as part of your regular fire safety maintenance — at least annually, or whenever building layouts, escape routes, or equipment locations change. Signs also deteriorate over time and may need replacing. We can schedule periodic reviews.

Absolutely. Send us your fire risk assessment report and we'll quote against the signage recommendations. We can also carry out a full survey if you want a complete review beyond what the assessment covered.
