EVACUATION DIAGRAMS PROCEDURE
We offer a flexible approach for your site and workplace.
An evacuation planner can visit your site and prepare sketches and mark up the fire equipment on the plan, along with assembly areas and evacuation routes.
Alternatively we can build the diagrams from your sketches or marked up plans.
STEP ONE: ASSESSING YOUR SITE
Evacuation Planner can conduct a site visit to audit your location if you are located in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Cairns or within 4 hours from these main cities.
If you have an existing plan of your building, email it to us for a free quote.
If you do not have an existing plan of the building, we can prepare this with a site visit or shoot us a sketch.
Our online service toolkit enables customers to conduct an in-house audit & plan for Evacuation Planner to produce compliant evacuation diagrams which is a great option for remote locations and is available upon request.
STEP TWO
Once we locate where the diagrams should be hung, we will prepare a draft of the evacuation diagrams for your review.
STEP THREE
PDF's and hard copies if ordered will be shipped to your premises or you can hire us to install them.
