PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
The GT157 Series is the most eco-friendly option for exit signs; constructed from 99% aluminum and completely non-electrical, the GT157 Series can be fully recycled at the end of its 25-year lifespan. The GT157 Series utilizes non-electrical photoluminescent (glow-in-the-dark) technology, which illuminates the word EXIT when dark conditions are present. EXIT is surrounded with a face color choice of red, green, or black. The GT157 Series has a UL924 Listed for the United States and Canada with a 50 foot viewing distance.
The GT157 Series is a great choice for new construction LEED projects and existing buildings that working toward LEED certification or need exit signs installed where there currently is no electricity. The cost to run electrical conduit is expensive, and the GT157 avoids this hassle while insuring fire and building code compliance. The GT157 eliminates the dependence on electricity for emergency exit signage.
The GT157 comes standard with a 3/4" black or brushed aluminum picture frame frame or 3/16" flush mount low profile brushed aluminum frame. Installs in minutes with the surface mount hardware kit (included). Overall, the GT157’s aluminum construction and non-electrical photoluminescent technology make it a superior exit sign choice for both high and low level applications.
