Hotel evacuation maps are available through Building Maps! Hotels, motels, dormitories and boarding houses and senior living center operators have a responsibility be prepared for potential emergencies that may require a swift evacuation of their occupants. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) asks that organizations in these industries create and regularly update an Emergency Action Plan (EAP). An important component of any organization’s EAP is the fire evacuation maps.
International Fire Code (IFC) classifies hotel rooms and dormitories as “transient occupancy buildings.” These are defined as dwelling or sleeping units designed for use of 30 days or less at a time. For transient occupancy buildings, the IFC states that an evacuation map should be placed on the back of every room’s door and by every elevator.
Building Maps can help you meet industry requirements by providing fire code compliant evacuation maps for each room of your transient occupancy building. We have nearly a decade of experience and thorough training to help you prepare your residential or transient occupancy building for these emergencies. Our services are customized to the needs and desires of your organization and/or your branding guidelines.
