Intermediate and Final Exit Doors (§ 2.2.9) – reentry doors Q – How do I mark reentry doors?
A – LL 26/04 does not mandate the upgrading or replacement of existing signs previously required pursuant to LL 5/73 or LL 16/84. Therefore, “reentry” signs and “no reentry” signs may remain as is. If you choose to replace them with photoluminescent signs, then these signs must be MEA-approved pursuant to § 2.5. Similarly, RS 6-1 does not mandate door hardware or door frame markings for reentry doors – however, if you voluntarily mark the door frame or hardware of a reentry door, then the reentry signage must be replaced with an MEA-approved reentry sign pursuant to § 2.5.
