Fire Safety Signage FAQs
-
UK law requires that non-domestic premises and communal areas in residential buildings have clear, visible fire safety signs. These must comply with the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 and BS 5499 standards.
-
Red: Fire equipment and prohibition (e.g. no smoking, fire extinguisher)
Green: Safe condition (e.g. fire exit, first aid)
Blue: Mandatory actions (e.g. fire door keep shut)
Yellow: Warnings (e.g. flammable materials)
-
Yes — landlords must ensure that tenants can safely evacuate during a fire. In HMOs or buildings with shared spaces, clear fire exit signs and door signage are typically required.
-
Mandatory signs include fire exit signs, fire door instructions, fire extinguisher locations, and fire action notices. The exact requirements depend on your layout and fire risk assessment.
-
A fire extinguisher sign should be positioned clearly above or adjacent to the extinguisher, helping people quickly identify its type and use in an emergency.
-
Not usually — but in some cases (e.g. converted properties, HMOs, or homes with vulnerable residents), signage can be recommended as part of a fire risk assessment.
