Exit Signs & Emergency Lights for Commercial Buildings
JCELighting exit signs and emergency lights are designed for commercial buildings, offices,
warehouses, retail stores, schools, hotels, corridors, stairwells, utility rooms, back-of-house
areas, and other spaces that require clear exit identification and emergency egress lighting.
This collection includes LED emergency lights, LED exit signs, and combination exit sign emergency
lights with 90-minute battery backup, AC120V-277V or AC120V/277V input, cETLus models, and
5-year warranty coverage.
Choose JCELighting emergency lighting products when your project needs reliable backup illumination
during a power outage, visible exit signage, dual adjustable emergency light heads, red or green
exit lettering options, and contractor-friendly multi-pack purchasing for commercial installation
and replacement projects.
LED Emergency Lights
Dual adjustable head emergency battery backup lights help illuminate exit routes, corridors,
stairwells, service areas, utility rooms, and building egress paths during power failure.
LED Exit Signs
Double face LED exit signs with red or green emergency exit lettering help clearly mark exits
in offices, warehouses, retail spaces, schools, hotels, and commercial facilities.
Exit Sign Emergency Light Combos
Combination exit signs with emergency lights provide exit identification and backup lighting
from one fixture, helping simplify commercial egress lighting installations.
How to Choose the Right Exit Sign or Emergency Light
The right emergency lighting product depends on the building layout, exit route, mounting location,
required letter color, voltage, backup runtime, and whether the project needs a standalone emergency
light, a standalone exit sign, or a combination exit sign with emergency light heads.
| Selection Factor |
What to Check |
JCELighting Recommendation |
| Product Type |
Confirm whether the location needs exit signage, emergency illumination, or both. |
Use LED exit signs for exit identification, LED emergency lights for backup path lighting, and combo units when both functions are needed in one fixture. |
| Backup Runtime |
Check emergency battery backup duration. |
Choose JCELighting models with 90-minute battery backup for commercial emergency lighting and exit sign applications. |
| Voltage |
Verify the building electrical system before ordering. |
Use AC120V-277V or AC120V/277V models based on the voltage listed in the selected product specification. |
| Letter Color |
Check whether the project requires red or green exit lettering. |
Choose red or green LED exit sign options based on local code, building standard, or project specification. |
| Single or Double Face |
Determine whether the sign must be visible from one direction or two directions. |
Use double face exit signs where visibility is needed from both sides of a corridor, hallway, or open area. |
| Emergency Heads |
Check whether adjustable emergency light heads are required. |
Use dual adjustable head emergency lights or combo exit signs with emergency lights to direct backup illumination toward the egress path. |
| Pack Quantity |
Confirm how many fixtures are needed for the building or project phase. |
Use 14-pack options for bulk replacement, contractor installation, commercial upgrades, or multi-location projects. |
| Certification |
Check project and inspection requirements. |
Choose cETLus listed models where commercial emergency lighting project specifications require listed fixtures. |
