Our Braille exit signs are designed to support safe evacuation and accessible wayfinding in any building subject to the National Construction Code. Each sign combines raised tactile text with Grade 1 braille characters, meeting the requirements of AS1428.1 and BCA Section D for emergency egress signage.
We stock a complete range, including the standard Exit sign, Exit Ground, Exit Basement, and Exit Level 1 through to Level 10, so you can sign every stairwell and egress door in a multi-storey building from a single supplier. All signs are made from UV-stable, textured, impact-resistant acrylic in Silver/Black and Green/White colour options, suitable for both indoor and stairwell environments.
Under the Building Code of Australia and AS1428.1, braille exit signs are required in most commercial, public, healthcare, and multi-residential buildings approved after May 2011.

Yes. Under the Building Code of Australia (BCA) and AS1428.1, braille exit signs are required in any building that includes an accessible path of travel through emergency egress routes. This covers the majority of commercial, government, healthcare, education, and multi-residential buildings approved after May 2011. The requirement applies to stairwell doors, lift lobbies, and any exit door on an accessible egress path.
The BCA requires that people navigating a stairwell during an evacuation can identify which floor they have reached by touch, without relying on sight. A standard “Exit” sign alone does not meet this requirement in a multi-storey building. Each floor must have a sign identifying that specific level, which is why we stock Exit Level 1 through to Exit Level 10, along with Exit Ground and Exit Basement variants. Choosing the correct level sign for each floor is a compliance requirement, not an optional detail.
The standard Exit sign is used on any floor-level exit door where no specific level identification is required. Exit Ground is used where the stairwell door opens to the ground floor of a building. Exit Basement and Exit Level B1/B2 variants are used for below-ground floors. Using the correct variant ensures your building meets the BCA’s egress identification requirements and would satisfy a building surveyor or certifier on inspection.
Our braille exit signs are available in Silver/Black and Green/White. Silver/Black is the most commonly specified finish for commercial interiors. Green/White is used where the building design or facility manager requires a colour that aligns with standard emergency exit colour conventions. Both options meet the luminance contrast requirements of AS1428.1.
Yes. We supply bulk orders for commercial projects, builders, and facility managers, and we ship Australia-wide. If you are fitting out a multi-storey building, our team can help you build an egress sign schedule to make sure every floor is covered with the correct variant.
