Question for any signs experts out there.

Somebody wants to put a sign on a final fire exit door to the effect that this is a fire exit and must not be used for general egress. My initial reaction is that there is nothing / no 'law' (although I stand to be corrected) against using a fire exit door as a general exit, ands I have advised accordingly, so this is going to be a local in-house instruction.

I cannot see a sign in my catalogue that covers this scenario and am wondering whether any such sign should be Blue for mandatory or Red as prohibited, and also what would be a appropriate wording. At the moment thay have a handwritten sign on the door saying DO NOT USE THIS DOOR - FIRE EXIT ONLY.

All sensible responses welcome.

These guys have it in their standard range (bottom right of page 14) There is also some useful info relating to the changes in legislation on ISO7010):
