Detention Grade LED Exit Sign | Red Lettering | 16 Gauge Cold Roll Steel | 100-277V
This fixture is a strong choice for commercial and industrial spaces where impact resistance and tamper resistance are priorities, thanks to its IK10 rating, 16-gauge cold rolled steel housing, and tamper-resistant T25 Torx fasteners. The powder coated finish and clear polycarbonate lens offer durability and corrosion resistance, while the integrated emergency backup battery ensures illumination during power loss – critical for egress and safety lighting. Surface and wall mounting options, along with compact dimensions, support installation in tight or institutional environments.

Product Overview
This detention grade LED exit sign provides red exit lettering for emergency exit marking in secure facilities. It is built with a 16-gauge cold roll steel housing, clear polycarbonate optics, and tamper-resistant T25 Torx fasteners with center pin reject.
The fixture supports 100-277V input and includes an emergency backup battery. Surface and wall mounting support installation where protected exit marking is required.
The IK10 impact rating and steel enclosure address the physical demands of detention facility lighting and correctional facility lighting.
Core Performance and Output
This exit sign operates on 100-277V input. The supplied product data does not state wattage, lumen output, efficacy, or beam distribution.
Clear .125 polycarbonate optics protect the red lettering assembly. Exit sign placement should maintain clear visibility of the exit marking from the intended path of egress.
The emergency backup battery provides backup operation during a loss of normal power. Battery runtime is not stated in the supplied product data.
Adjustability and Control Options
This fixture is configured for surface or wall mounting. No adjustable optics, dimming capability, control input, or network control option is stated in the supplied product data.
The 100-277V input supports installation on common commercial and institutional electrical systems within that voltage range. Verify the available supply voltage before installation.
Longevity and Reliability
The powder-coated 16-gauge cold roll steel housing provides a rigid enclosure for the exit sign components. T25 Torx fasteners with center pin reject limit routine access to the enclosure.
The IK10 impact rating identifies the fixture’s impact resistance classification. Clear polycarbonate optics protect the internal exit marking components.
The fixture includes a 5-year warranty. The emergency backup battery is included with the sign.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The white fixture housing measures 16 3/16 inches by 12 7/8 inches by 2 13/16 inches. Confirm the available wall or surface area before mounting.
The enclosure uses 16-gauge cold roll steel with a powder-coated finish. The face uses .125 clear polycarbonate optics.
T25 Torx fasteners with center pin reject are part of the fixture construction. This hardware should be retained during service and reinstallation.
Where This Product Fits Best
This exit sign is intended for secure facilities requiring protected emergency exit marking and impact-resistant construction. Its steel housing, tamper-resistant fasteners, and IK10 rating align with detention-grade installation conditions.
- detention facility lighting
- correctional facility lighting
- secure area lighting
- holding cell lighting
- secure corridor lighting
- psychiatric facility lighting
- vandal resistant lighting
Surface and wall mounting allow the sign to be positioned at designated exits and along secure circulation routes. The fixture is ETL certified.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Install the fixture using the specified surface or wall mounting arrangement. Confirm that the mounting surface can accept the fixture dimensions and that the supply voltage is within 100-277V.
Maintain access to the T25 Torx fasteners for inspection and service. The emergency backup battery should remain connected and available for periodic testing under the facility’s life safety procedures.
Protect the clear polycarbonate optics from damage or obstruction so the red exit lettering remains visible. Replacement or service work should preserve the tamper-resistant fastener arrangement.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
In detention facility lighting and correctional facility lighting, this sign is mounted on a wall or surface at designated emergency exit locations. Secure corridor lighting installations use exit signs as part of the marked egress path.
Holding cell lighting and psychiatric facility lighting projects use detention-grade construction where protected fixtures and tamper-resistant access are required. Placement follows the facility exit marking layout and the required viewing direction.
Mounting height and spacing depend on the exit layout, visibility requirements, and building configuration. Surface mounting may simplify placement where recessed mounting is not part of the project design.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This fixture is ETL certified. It is rebate eligible.
The fixture has an IK10 impact rating. It includes an emergency backup battery.
The warranty period is 5 years.
