WHY CHOOSE BUILDING MAPS?
At Building Maps we never use a one-size-fits-all approach when preparing for an emergency situation. We design our safety plans and maps around a building’s location, industry, and populace. That’s how we ensure that our maps provide clear and concise directions while following industry requirements and safety regulations.
We also understand that the psychology of a person changes in an emergency situation. Simple tasks like reading a map or finding an exit can be difficult for an individual or group who is panicked or injured. Taking that into consideration, it’s essential to create concise and accurate instructions for a building’s occupants to follow to safety. Because above all, we plan to protect and save lives.
