During a fire, closing all doors behind you can be crucial to limiting the spread of flames and smoke. To ensure that people are aware of the importance of closing doors during a fire, appropriate signage must be installed in highly visible areas.

Aluminum signs measuring 4x12 inches are an ideal size for this purpose, as they are small enough to be installed in tight spaces, yet still highly visible. The signs are made from durable aluminum material, which is resistant to rust and corrosion. This ensures that the signage remains in good condition even in harsh weather conditions.

The sign has a white background, which makes it easy to see even in low light conditions. This is particularly important during emergencies, when visibility is critical. The use of bold, black lettering ensures that the message is easily readable, even from a distance.

In summary, installing aluminum signs measuring 4x12 inches is an effective way of reminding people to close all doors behind them during a fire. The signs are highly durable and long-lasting, which makes them a cost-effective solution for maintaining a safe environment. Additionally, the use of bold, black lettering ensures that the message is easily understood, even in an emergency situation. Remembering to close doors during a fire can help limit the spread of flames and smoke, potentially saving lives and minimizing property damage.

Local Law 115 directed FDNY to require owners of multiple dwellings to post a notice in conspicuous locations indicating that those escaping a fire should close all doors behind them to limit smoke and contain the fire. The “Shut the Door” notice must be maintained by promptly replacing any missing or damaged postings.

 

Local Law 115 directed the Fire Department to require owners of multiple dwellings to post a notice in conspicuous locations indicating that those escaping a fire should close all doors behind them.

 

When escaping a fire, an apartment resident and the members of their household should close all doors behind themselves, including all doors within the apartment through which they exit.  At all other times, public hallway corridor doors and all stairwell doors should be kept closed (except, of course, when using it to enter or exit the apartment or floor).

Some stairwell doors, and some public hallway corridor doors serving as fire and smoke barriers, are held open by a magnetic device that releases when a smoke detector on the floor activates.  Such doors will close automatically, provided that there is nothing blocking them.  Such doors do not have to be kept closed, but once they are released by the fire alarm system they should be allowed to close.

 

The rule establishes the design and content of a “Close the Door” notice and require its posting on the public hallway side of stairwell doors.  The notice is to read:

In a Fire, Close All Doors Behind You!

Keep Fire and Smoke Out of Building Hallways and Stairs.

 

Keep Apartment and Stairwell Doors Closed at All Other Times.

Protect Your Neighbors and Your Home!

 

The message is visually reinforced by an image of a door ajar, with flames behind it.  The final rule includes the image to be reproduced and both versions of the sign, in color; slightly modifies the size of the sign and image; and clarifies the lettering and background requirements.  The final rule also clarifies that the notice must be maintained by promptly replacing any missing or damaged postings.
