Montgomery County, PA code requires exit signs mounted low to the ground in all buildings. However, as I have found out, there are lots of buildings and structures in Montgomery County that do not comply with this code. Hence this should be the law statewide. No significant structural alterations would be needed; there would just need to be electricity wired up to power the exit signs, which will not alter structural integrity.

Low-mounted exit signs can save lives during emergencies when smoke rises and obscures higher-mounted signs. Ensuring visibility at lower levels can guide people safely out of dangerous situations. This simple change could make a significant difference in emergency evacuations across Pennsylvania.

Sign this petition to help make low-mounted exit signs a statewide requirement for safer evacuations!
