The "In a Fire, Close All Doors Behind You" sign is an essential safety signage that should be displayed in all buildings to remind occupants of the importance of closing doors during a fire emergency. The sign is available in a sticker or PVC material, and it features the text "In a Fire, Close All Doors Behind You" in bold red letters with a white background. It is compliant with the NYC Administrative code 15-135 and Local Law 115, making it an approved safety signage for use in New York City buildings.

The primary purpose of this sign is to remind occupants of the importance of closing doors during a fire emergency. Closed doors can help to contain the fire and smoke, limiting their spread and allowing occupants to evacuate the building safely. By displaying this sign, building owners and managers can promote safety awareness among occupants and encourage them to take proactive measures to prevent fires and minimize damage.

The sign serves as a clear reminder to occupants to close all doors behind them during a fire emergency. It is essential to close apartment and stairwell doors to prevent the spread of fire and smoke to other parts of the building. By doing so, occupants can protect themselves and others and help to minimize damage to the building.

Overall, the "In a Fire, Close All Doors Behind You" sign is a critical safety signage that should be displayed in all buildings. It is a simple yet effective way to communicate important safety information to occupants and promote proactive measures to prevent fires and protect occupants. Building owners and managers should ensure that the sign is displayed prominently in areas where it can be easily seen and read by occupants.

 

In a Fire, Close All Doors Behind You SIGN

Effective Date: 
Friday, November 15, 2019
 
 
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.
