Importance of the Lobby Fire Safety Notice (FDNY Rules & Regulations)

The FDNY requires Fire Safety Notices to be posted in all multiple dwellings to provide clear, life-saving instructions in case of fire. For non-fireproof buildings, the notice emphasizes the importance of immediate evacuation rather than remaining inside, since these structures are more vulnerable to fire and smoke spread. This simple posting helps tenants make split-second decisions that can save lives.

Under § 408-02, Fire Safety Notices are designed to communicate in plain, easy-to-read language so that all residents and visitors know what actions to take in an emergency. For non-fireproof buildings, evacuation is always the safest course of action, and the sign makes this guidance unmistakable.

Failure to display this notice can result in FDNY violations, fines, and liability issues for property owners. More importantly, it can lead to confusion during emergencies, endangering both tenants and first responders. Proper posting of this sign ensures that building management is aligned with FDNY’s fire safety regulations while protecting the lives of occupants.

By installing the Lobby Fire Safety Notice – Non-Fireproof Building, owners demonstrate a clear commitment to fire safety, compliance, and tenant protection. This sign is not only a legal requirement but also one of the most important tools in promoting emergency preparedness and safety awareness in New York City residential buildings.
