Egress Maps

Egress Maps and Evacuation Signs for NYC Buildings

Name: Egress Map Signs
Brand: Gogi Signs

An egress map should show people where they are, where the exits are, and how to leave the building from that location. Gogi Signs creates location-specific evacuation maps for offices, apartments, hotels, healthcare facilities, schools, commercial properties, and managed buildings across New Jersey.

Building Evacuation Maps

Egress Maps for Offices, Apartments, Hotels, and Commercial Buildings

Egress maps turn a floor plan into a quick visual reference for evacuation. The map is simplified so the viewer can identify the current location, nearby exits, stairs, and the route information relevant to that posting point.

Each building is different. We work from the supplied floor plan, life-safety information, route direction, map location, and required emergency content to produce a clear sign for the property.

Egress Map Options

Printed Rigid, Photoluminescent, and Framed Egress Maps

The map artwork may stay similar across these options, while the substrate, visibility treatment, and mounting change with the building and project requirements.

Printed Rigid Egress Maps

Full-color evacuation maps printed on a rigid sign panel for offices, corridors, lobbies, residential buildings, schools, and commercial properties.

Photoluminescent Egress Maps

Glow-in-the-dark material can be used for selected projects where a photoluminescent map is specified or requested for low-light visibility.

Framed & Standoff Egress Maps

Selected interiors may use a protective frame, acrylic cover, or standoff-mounted presentation where the map needs a more finished architectural appearance.

Map Content

What Goes on a Building Egress Map

The exact content depends on the property and the requirements supplied for the project. The goal is to remove unnecessary floor-plan detail and keep emergency information easy to understand.

Stairs & Building Features
Stairways, corridors, elevators, rooms, or other features may be shown where they help orientation or are required.
Emergency Equipment
Fire extinguishers, alarm stations, AEDs, or other safety equipment can be included when supplied and required for the map scope.
Emergency Instructions
Short building-specific instructions, contact information, or emergency notes can be added when provided by the property team.

Location-Specific Maps

Each Posting Location Can Need Its Own You Are Here Map

An egress map is most useful when it is oriented to the place where the person is standing. Larger buildings may need several map versions even when they share the same base floor plan.

You Are Here Marker

Move the current-location marker to match the exact wall, room, corridor, or floor position where the sign is posted.

Route Direction

Adjust the route and orientation so the viewer sees the correct path from that posting point.

Floor-Specific Information

Change room names, stairs, corridors, exits, and other information when floors do not share the same layout.

Map Numbering

Use a sign schedule or map ID so each finished map is installed at the correct location.

Source Files

Floor Plans and Building Information Needed for Egress Maps

Accurate source information is critical. The map artwork should be based on current building information supplied by the property team, architect, engineer, fire-safety professional, or other authorized project source.

Helpful Project Details

Outdated Floor Plans Create Bad Maps

If walls, exits, rooms, or routes have changed, send the current approved layout rather than an older tenant or leasing plan.

Materials

PVC, Plastic, Metal, and Photoluminescent Egress Map Options

Gogi’s live egress-map offering lists plastic, PVC, metal, and photoluminescent materials. The final choice should follow the installation location, required format, mounting, expected wear, and property preferences.

PVC

Rigid printed panels for many standard indoor wall-mounted evacuation-map applications.

Plastic

Lightweight rigid sign material for selected office, residential, institutional, and property applications.

Metal

More substantial sign panels for high-traffic areas, commercial properties, and selected framed or mounted formats.

Photoluminescent

Glow-in-the-dark material for specified or requested evacuation signs.

Compliance & Approval

Egress Map Requirements Vary by Building and Jurisdiction

Evacuation-map content and placement can vary by occupancy, property type, local fire requirements, building rules, and project specifications. We fabricate maps from the approved information supplied for the property rather than applying one universal layout to every building.

Where a code official, fire-safety professional, architect, engineer, property manager, or other authority has issued map requirements, those project-specific requirements should control the final artwork and placement.

Send the Required Building Information

Current plans, posting locations, approved exits, routes, symbols, and required instructions help us build the correct map set for the property.

Building Map Sets

Egress Map Sets for Floors, Rooms, and Multiple Locations

Larger properties often need several map versions built from the same floor plan. A controlled map schedule helps keep each You Are Here marker, route, floor, and sign location tied to the correct finished piece.

Commercial Applications

Egress Maps for Offices, Residential Buildings, Hotels, Healthcare, and Schools

Evacuation maps are used across properties where occupants, visitors, guests, patients, students, or staff may need a clear visual reference during an emergency.

Corporate Offices

Office floors, corridors, suites, shared spaces, elevator areas, and multi-tenant business properties.

Residential Buildings

Apartment buildings, condominiums, mixed-use properties, corridors, common areas, and managed residential portfolios.

Hotels & Hospitality

Food-service menus, cafe counters, grab-and-go areas, breakfast menus, and changing offers.

Healthcare Facilities

Hospitals, clinics, medical office buildings, treatment areas, corridors, and public spaces.

Schools & Universities

Academic buildings, residence halls, offices, classrooms, corridors, and campus facilities.

Government & Public Buildings

Administrative buildings, civic facilities, public offices, community buildings, and other shared properties.
