The Detex ECL-395 is a peel-and-stick door sign engineered for 15-second delayed egress applications.

Designed specifically for use with Detex ECL-series hardware.

Detex ECL-395 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Detex ECL-395 delayed egress sign actually say?
The printed message is "Push Until Alarm Sounds - Door Can Be Opened in 15 Seconds", in red text on a contrasting background. That's the 15-second wording, so it belongs on a door set for a 15-second delay. A door running a 30-second delay needs different wording, not this sign.
2) Is the delayed egress sign required by code, or is it optional?
Signage is part of a compliant delayed egress installation, not an add-on. The ECL-395 carries the IBC/NFPA-required 15-second delay notification in plain English, which is what an AHJ looks for at inspection on a delayed egress opening. Missing or illegible signage is a common write-up on schools, hospitals, and retail exits.
3) Is the ECL-395 an exit device, or just the sign?
Just the sign. The ECL-395 is a replacement instruction decal for delayed egress openings, with no latching, no rods, and no alarm of its own. If you need the hardware itself, that's a device like the Detex ECL-230D or ECL-600. If you need a straight panic exit device instead, the Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Marks USA M9900VR is a non-handed 36 x 84 vertical rod exit-only device.
4) Can the Detex ECL-395 be used in place of a surface vertical rod exit device such as the Von Duprin 8827-3FT?
No. The ECL-395 is a peel-and-stick door sign that displays the 15 second delayed egress instruction in red text, and it is made to accompany Detex ECL-230D, ECL-230D-PH, and ECL-600 delayed egress hardware. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is the exit device itself, a wide stile surface vertical rod device in the 88 Series, Grade 1, for a 1-3/4 inch door and a 3 ft opening. The sign provides the required user instruction at the door; it does not latch, unlatch, or secure anything. An opening that needs egress hardware needs a device like the 8827-3FT, and a delayed egress opening needs the signage in addition to the hardware, not instead of it.
5) What vertical rod exit device should I order for a fire rated opening if I am only replacing the door sign?
The ECL-395 carries the 15 second delayed egress message for Detex ECL-230D, ECL-230D-PH, and ECL-600 hardware and is applied with an adhesive backing, so it does not change what device hangs on the door. For a fire rated opening the fire labeled vertical rod devices are the Delaney F9100 Series DLY-694300, a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated vertical rod device for a 36 x 84 inch door in aluminum finish, and the Marks USA M9900FVR, a fire rated exit only non-handed vertical rod device for a 36 x 84 inch door. For a 48 inch leaf the fire rated option is the Marks USA M9900F-VR at 48 x 84 inches. Fire rated devices are exit only, which means no outside trim function comes with them as listed.
6) Do I need any tools or drilling to install the ECL-395 door sign?
No drilling, no fasteners. The ECL-395 has an adhesive backing and goes on peel-and-stick to a clean door face. Wipe the surface down first so it bonds. Nothing about the door prep changes, which is why maintenance staff can replace a faded one without a locksmith.
7) I'm standardizing signage across a building with delayed egress doors. Will one ECL-395 cover every door?
Order one ECL-395 per delayed egress leaf, not per opening. Each door someone can push on needs its own instruction, and the message is only correct on doors running a 15-second delay with ECL-230D, ECL-230D-PH, or ECL-600 hardware. Pairs of doors get two. The sign is sold as a single model, so there's nothing to specify beyond quantity.
8) My delayed egress door sign is faded and the inspector flagged it. Can I just replace the sign?
Yes, and that's exactly what the ECL-395 is for. It's a replacement peel-and-stick sign for ECL-series delayed egress hardware, so a faded or peeling decal gets scraped off and a new one applied without touching the ECL-230D, ECL-230D-PH, or ECL-600 device on the door.
9) Is there a Grade 2 vertical rod device option, and does the delayed egress sign apply to it?
The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty Grade 2 surface vertical rod exit device, exit only, with ADA compliance, and it is not fire rated. The ECL-395 sign carries the message Push Until Alarm Sounds - Door Can Be Opened in 15 Seconds and is made for Detex ECL-230D, ECL-230D-PH, and ECL-600 delayed egress hardware, so its wording matches a 15 second delay function. On a standard panic device such as the 9860 the door releases on the first push, so that instruction would not describe how the opening behaves. Match the signage wording to the delay function actually installed.
10) What vertical rod device covers a 48 inch wide leaf?
The Marks USA M9900VR at 48 x 84 inches is an exit only vertical rod panic device for the wider leaf, and the Marks USA M9900F-VR at 48 x 84 inches is the fire rated exit only version. Both are vertical rod devices, so the difference between them is the fire label, not the opening size. The Detex ECL-395 door sign is applied with an adhesive backing to a clean door surface and carries the 15 second delayed egress instruction, so it is chosen by the delay function on the opening rather than by door width.
11) Can I use the ECL-395 sign on an exterior door or a door in a wash-down area?
The ECL-395 uses weather-resistant materials that hold legibility and adhesion across a range of environmental conditions, so an exterior-facing delayed egress door is a reasonable application. It's still an adhesive-backed sign, so surface prep matters more outdoors than in.
