Evacuation diagrams for daycare centres and schools
Licensing inspectors and fire marshals expect a posted evacuation diagram in every room children use. Each one has to show the way out from that room, so a centre with ten rooms needs ten different maps. That's exactly what EvacPlan makes for you.
Upload a floor plan, photo or sketch. The AI makes a map for every room.
What to put on each map
- "You are here" for the room
- A primary and a secondary (alternate) escape route
- The outdoor meeting point or relocation site
- The severe-weather or tornado shelter area, where your plan has one
- Fire alarm pull stations, extinguishers and first aid
- Never mark your lockdown room on a posted map
How many do you need?
One map in every classroom and room children use, near the door, plus corridors and the entrance. Most centres need 5 to 30.
Tips
- Hang maps at the children's and staff's eye line by each door.
- Use the dashed "second route" style for the alternate way out.
- Review the maps after any room change and at each licensing renewal.

Questions
Does every classroom need its own map?
In most US licensing rules, yes: the map must show the way out from that room. EvacPlan's AI makes a map for every room in one go.
Should the lockdown room be on the map?
No. Guidance says not to show lockdown locations on posted maps.
Can we show a tornado shelter area?
Yes. Mark the shelter area with a label or text box on each map.
