Building-integrated self-rescue
A New Approach to
Emergency Escape.
EXIT Safety is a building-integrated self-rescue solution that provides occupants with an independent, automatically controlled route to safety.
Designed for modern buildings. Engineered for controlled descent.
The Challenge
What if emergency escape required less infrastructure?
Traditional building evacuation and rescue strategies can require significant space, structural provisions, access routes and external rescue infrastructure.
In dense urban environments these requirements can also influence building layouts, courtyards, landscaping and architectural freedom.
EXIT Safety introduces another approach: a permanently installed self-rescue system integrated directly into the building.
Conventional arrangements
- Stairways and escape infrastructure
- Rescue vehicle access
- External rescue areas
- Structural requirements
- Dependency on rescue access
Building-integrated self-rescue
- Integrated into the building
- Available directly to occupants
- Controlled descent
- Compact installation
- Project-specific design
Emergency escape strategies and regulatory requirements are project- and jurisdiction-specific.
The EXIT Safety Solution
Emergency escape, integrated into the building.
The EXIT Safety descent device is permanently installed in the building and connected to a load-bearing structure. It can be positioned below a designated escape window or integrated near a balcony, and can remain discreetly concealed until needed.
In an emergency, the occupant accesses the system, puts on the evacuation harness, connects to the descent line and exits through the designated escape opening. The device controls the descent automatically.

How It Works
From building to safety.
- 01
Access
Open the designated escape window or balcony access and reveal the EXIT Safety system.
- 02
Harness
Put on the evacuation harness.
- 03
Connect
Attach the harness securely to the descent line.
- 04
Descend
Exit through the designated opening. The device automatically controls the descent.
- 05
Reach safety
Disconnect after landing and move away from the descent area.
The system is designed to operate automatically during descent without requiring the user to manually control descent speed.

Beyond Emergency Escape
Safety can influence the entire building.
Independent escape
Provides occupants with a self-operated route to safety without relying solely on external rescue operations.
Space efficiency
A compact building-integrated solution may reduce the spatial impact associated with certain conventional escape arrangements.
Design freedom
Alternative emergency escape strategies may create new possibilities for building layouts, façades and shared outdoor areas.
Urban environments
Particularly interesting for dense developments where rescue access, courtyards and available space can influence design.
New build & retrofit
The system can be considered during new construction and for suitable existing buildings.
Project-specific engineering
Every implementation is designed around the building, escape strategy and applicable requirements.
Could EXIT Safety create opportunities in your project?
Project Exploration
Could EXIT Safety work in your building?
Every building is different. Building type, height, location, fire strategy, architecture, local regulation and authority requirements all affect whether and how EXIT Safety could be used.

Finnish Safety Innovation
Rethinking how people reach safety.
EXIT Safety develops building-integrated emergency escape technology designed to provide people with an independent route to safety.
The technology has been developed in Finland through product development, testing and real-world demonstrations.
Our goal is simple: make emergency escape safer, more accessible and easier to integrate into the buildings of the future.
Your project may have more options than you think.
Explore whether EXIT Safety could become part of your building's emergency escape strategy.
