Property signage requirements come from three published Ontario sources. Here is exactly what each one calls for — verify the specifics for your building with your local authority.

We are a private decal & sign supplier. These are the published display requirements — your building’s approved occupancy load and any local bylaw conditions are confirmed by your municipality or fire department.

§ VDefinition & Glossary

What is an
occupancy load sign?

An occupancy load sign states the maximum number of persons permitted in a specific assembly occupancy space at one time. Under the Ontario Fire Code (O.Reg 213/07) and the Ontario Building Code, it is required for restaurants, event venues, gyms, theatres, meeting halls, and any space designated as an “assembly occupancy.”

The number on the sign must match the occupancy load approved by your local fire department and municipality during building permit and fire safety plan approval. It is not a suggestion — it is a legal limit designed to ensure safe egress in an emergency.

Without a properly posted occupancy load sign, an assembly space may be found non-conforming, which can lead to municipal fines or an order to remedy from a Fire Marshal or building inspector.

WHERE TO FIND IT

Your approved occupancy load is listed in your fire safety plan, building permit documents, or can be confirmed by your local fire department. For existing buildings, the original occupancy load can be retrieved through municipal property records or a Fire Marshal's compliance report.

§ VI⚠ Notice

Your building is
due for inspection.

Ontario Fire Marshals routinely audit commercial buildings. Fire route and occupancy load signs are first-check items — missing signage can lead to an order to remedy.

Signage Requirements Guide
§ VIIProperty & Building Q & A

Frequently asked
questions.

Q. 01

When is an occupancy load sign required in Ontario?

Under the Ontario Fire Code (O.Reg 213/07) and the Ontario Building Code, assembly occupancy spaces — including restaurants, event venues, gyms, theatres, and meeting halls — generally display maximum occupancy load signs in a conspicuous location near the main entrance. The sign must state the approved occupancy load as determined by the Fire Marshal or building inspector.
Q. 02

What must an Ontario occupancy load sign say?

An Ontario occupancy load sign must state the maximum number of persons permitted in the space, reference "Maximum Occupancy" or equivalent, and be clearly legible from the entrance. While the Fire Code does not mandate a specific font size, the sign should be readable and conspicuously placed. Our signs use high-contrast, AODA-accessible formatting built to the published display requirements.
Q. 03

Are your occupancy signs AODA accessible?

Yes. Our AODA-accessible occupancy and building signs use high-contrast colour combinations, accessible font sizing, and can include Braille inserts where required under the AODA Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation (customer-provided accessibility specification). We build to the published accessibility display requirements; confirm any building-specific conditions with your accessibility coordinator or local authority.
Q. 04

Can you produce fire route signs and no parking fire route signs?

Yes. Fire route signs are built to match the Ontario Fire Code text format and are typically mandated by local municipal bylaw. Our signs use the standard "NO PARKING FIRE ROUTE" wording, reflective options for low-light visibility, and durable aluminum, PVC or ACM substrates for exterior mounting. Confirm your municipality’s specific fire-route designation before ordering.
