Disabled Refuge Points

Do these need specific signs to comply with BS 5499 or are the signs on the intercom adequate( wheelchair logo on green backgound)?

    Very rarely will a guide recommend a specific sign for a situation, they usually provide options and rely on the common sense of the user to decide the best option. With a refuge the first thing would be to let everybody know the purpose of the space, they have just entered. If it has communication point, then its purpose and how to use it. A fire procedure notice to instruct the disabled person what actions they need to take and any other notices that may be useful.

    Check out the web to see what disabled refuge signs are available.
