Warning signs

Probably about the only time any of us even briefly consider exit signs is during the safety run-through just before our plane takes off, if even then.

However, though we might not consider them the vast majority of the time, naturally they are pretty important little items if the time does come when they’re needed. That’s when you really appreciate that there’s all kinds of regulations surrounding them stating things like the minimum size of the letters, how often the batteries are changed and so on.

These days some of them (though not all, surprisingly) even come in braille and, of course, you’ll have seen various combinations of colours being used in them all with the intention of producing a sign that’s readable through smoke and so on.
