Exit Sign Installation & Hardwiring in Charlotte, NC

Exit Sign Installation and Hardwiring in Charlotte, NC

Touchstone Electric recently completed a safety-focused lighting project for Child Care Netwrok in Charlotte, NC. Our Matthews-based Charlotte team supplied and hardwired eight illuminated exit signs and ran new power to support safe, code-compliant egress lighting throughout the property. The work was completed on September 14, 2024 by technician Christian Cedillos.

This project enhances visibility along exit routes and helps the facility meet local life-safety requirements, ensuring that staff, families, and visitors can quickly locate exits during an emergency or low-visibility event.

What We Did

• Supplied eight high-visibility, illuminated exit signs appropriate for egress pathways
• Hardwired each unit and ran new power to the signs where needed
• Positioned signage at designated doors and corridor intersections for clear sightlines
• Secured and protected wiring with a code-first approach to routing and support
• Performed functional testing and final walkthrough to verify illumination and placement

As a local contractor experienced in lighting installation and egress lighting, we coordinated the work to minimize disruption, kept pathways clear, and delivered clean, professional finishes around each sign location.

Why Code-Compliant Egress Lighting Matters

Exit signs are a critical part of any life-safety plan. Properly installed, continuously illuminated signage helps occupants orient quickly and move toward safe exits. For properties in Charlotte, meeting current electrical and life-safety standards isn’t just best practice—it supports inspections, insurance requirements, and everyday peace of mind.

• Visibility: Clear direction during power interruptions or low-visibility conditions
• Safety: Marked egress routes reduce confusion during evacuations
• Compliance: Installation aligned with local code and safety guidelines
• Reliability: Professionally hardwired circuits and verified connections

Our Local Process in Charlotte

From our Matthews branch serving the greater Charlotte area, we begin with a site walk to confirm sign count, placement, and power needs. For this project, we installed eight illuminated exit signs, routed new power where needed, and verified that each unit was clearly visible from approach angles in corridors and at final exit doors.

After installation, our technician tested illumination and functionality and reviewed the layout with the facility contact to confirm readiness for daily use and future inspections.
