This meant that the three floor evacuation maps for the 450 N. Livermore Avenue property were sized as such. The individual room maps were sized at 8 \u00bd\u201d by 11\u201d and produced using card stock\/styrene because the thickness and wear characteristics are very similar. The floor maps were 2<sup>nd<\/sup> surface mounted to the required non-glare acrylic lens.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years SignWorks has become a go-to source for evacuation maps in the greater bay area and this is because we understand the guidelines and the approval process, even though the process has become more fluid as a result of COVID 19. Although the client (Gunkel) managed the Fire Department approval process themselves, it is worth noting that the Fire Department desk review process in both San Francisco and Oakland is no longer handled on a walk-in basis. Both Fire Departments have reverted to a digital desk review process which continues to evolve over time.<\/p>\n<p>The attached final map proofs reflect finished signs that we mailed to the site manager earlier this week and we hope to be able you update our post with pictures as soon as the evacuation maps are installed, and we have pictures to share. And, we are already working with another repeat client on another evacuation map project for their apartment project in downtown Oakland.
