Evacuation Diagrams for Warehouses & Industrial Facilities
Clear evacuation diagrams for warehouses, factories, distribution centres, workshops and other operational facilities.
COAD88 EVAC PLAN can assess complex layouts, establish suitable evacuation routes and prepare diagrams for individual display locations across the facility.
On-site assessment, drafting, printing and installation are available across Melbourne and much of Victoria. Remote drafting is available Australia-wide for suitable projects.
Do Warehouses and Industrial Facilities Need Evacuation Diagrams?
Evacuation diagrams are an important part of emergency planning for warehouses and industrial workplaces. They help employees, contractors and visitors identify their location, emergency exits, evacuation routes and assembly areas.
Large floor areas, storage racking and machinery can make routes less obvious, particularly for people unfamiliar with the site.
Are the Requirements Different for Industrial Facilities?
The core diagram requirements in AS 3745–2010 — Planning for emergencies in facilities apply across different facility types. However, the number, placement and information shown need to reflect the individual site, including:
Racking aisles, storage areas and production floors
Machinery, fixed plant and restricted-access areas
Mezzanines, adjoining offices and staff facilities
Loading docks, service yards and pedestrian exits
Separate buildings and external assembly areas
Evacuation routes need to follow usable paths through the facility. Changes to racking, machinery or internal partitions can affect these paths and trigger the need for an update.
COAD88 EVAC PLAN prepares diagrams using current plans and confirmed site information. Where evacuation routes, assembly areas or display locations have not been established, we can assess the facility and assist in determining suitable arrangements.
Industrial Facilities We Work With
Warehouses & Storage Facilities
Location-specific evacuation diagrams for warehouses, storage facilities, racking areas and adjoining offices.
Factories & Production Facilities
Clear diagrams for manufacturing, production and processing sites containing machinery, plant and multiple operational areas.
Distribution & Logistics Centres
Evacuation diagrams for distribution centres, transport depots, loading areas and large logistics facilities.
Workshops & Service Facilities
Site-specific diagrams for mechanical workshops, maintenance facilities, trade premises and service centres.
Data Centres & Technical Facilities
Evacuation diagrams for data centres and technical facilities with secure areas, plant rooms and controlled-access spaces.
Industrial Estates & Multi-Building Sites
Industrial complexes with separate buildings, shared access and multiple tenancies or operational areas.
New Diagrams, Reviews and Site Changes
Warehouses and industrial facilities frequently change as operations develop. Whether you are establishing a new facility or updating an existing site, evacuation diagrams should accurately reflect the current layout, exits, evacuation routes and emergency equipment.
For new facilities and existing sites without suitable diagrams. We assess the available plans and site information, confirm display locations and prepare diagrams for each area.
Review and revalidate existing diagrams at intervals not exceeding five years under AS 3745, checking that the information remains current.
Update diagrams when racking, machinery, mezzanines, layouts or emergency equipment change. We can also revise diagrams originally prepared by another provider.
How We Work
A clear process allows each evacuation diagram to be prepared around the facility’s current layout and emergency arrangements.
01 — Review the Facility
We review available plans, existing diagrams and relevant emergency arrangements to confirm the project scope.
02 — Confirm the Requirements
Where required, we inspect the facility to verify layouts, exits and emergency equipment. We can also assist with evacuation routes, assembly areas and diagram locations.
03 — Prepare the Diagrams
Each diagram is drafted for its intended location, oriented to the viewer and submitted for review before final production.
04 — Supply & Installation
Diagrams can be supplied digitally or printed, framed and installed. On-site service is available across Melbourne and much of Victoria, with remote drafting Australia-wide.
Discuss Your Industrial Facility
Whether you need evacuation diagrams for one warehouse or a coordinated package across multiple industrial sites, COAD88 EVAC PLAN can help determine the appropriate scope and next steps.
