Individual Tactile Letters & Numbers
Safety Media's Individual Tactile Letters & Numbers are essential for clearly marking floor numbers and stair exit designations, fully compliant with Building Codes across Canada and the NFPA standards. According to the Ontario Building Code states (OBC 3.4.6.18.):
- NUMBERS (Arabic) indicating the assigned floor number and
- UPPER CASE LETTERS indicating the designation assigned to each exit stair shaft shall:
(a) be mounted permanently on each side of doors to exit stair shafts,
(b) be not less than 60 mm high, raised approximately 0.7 mm above the surface
(c) be located 1 500 mm from the finished floor, and
(d) be contrasting in colour with the surface to which they are applied.
Product Specifications:
- The raised (tactile) letter is plastic with a bevelled edge and is approximately 2.75"H (69.9 mm) x 0.04"D (1 mm).
- All letters are equipped with double-sided tape for ease of installation on most smooth surfaces
