Section 01

Overview

EvacPath makes AS 3745-compliant evacuation diagrams for factories and manufacturing plants from A$70 per diagram (Basic A$280 for up to 4 diagrams, Standard A$420 for up to 8), delivered as print-ready PDFs in 3 to 5 business days with no site visit. You see your first draft before you pay.

Factories and manufacturing plants combine large floor areas, heavy machinery, chemical and fuel storage, and shift workers, which makes clear evacuation diagrams essential. AS 3745 requires current diagrams showing exit routes, fire equipment, and assembly points for every production facility regardless of size.

Section 02

Why manufacturing need diagrams

  • Large production floors and long travel distances to exits
  • Machinery, hot work, and flammable or chemical storage raise fire risk
  • Shift workers, contractors, and visitors all need clear evacuation guidance
  • WorkSafe and insurer inspections check for current diagrams and an evacuation plan
  • Plant changes and new production lines alter exit paths and equipment positions
Section 03

Where to install diagrams

  • Main production floor entry and along the floor
  • Near each emergency exit and roller door
  • Loading docks and the dispatch or warehouse area
  • Chemical, fuel, or dangerous goods stores
  • Amenities, lunchrooms, and the site office
Section 04

Common challenges

Manufacturing layouts change as production lines are added, moved, or re-tooled, and large open floors with racking, plant, and mezzanines can obscure exit sightlines. Diagrams need to map the real, current floor and read clearly from the work area, which is where a fast remote service helps.

What clients say
Read case studies
We had no formal plans for our commercial shed, just a rough hand drawn sketch and some photos. John transformed that into clear, accurate emergency diagrams and guided us on the best emergency equipment locations and evacuation routes. The whole process was fast and very easy. I happily recommend John and EvacPath.

I would highly recommend John from EvacPath. The entire process of preparing evacuation diagrams for our two-storey clinic was seamless, professional and efficient. John was responsive, easy to work with and provided excellent quality diagrams at a very reasonable price.

FAQ

Manufacturing FAQ

Do manufacturing plants need diagrams for dangerous goods areas?

Yes. Areas storing flammable liquids, gases, or other dangerous goods should be shown on the evacuation diagram along with the relevant fire equipment, and the diagram needs to make the exit path away from those areas clear. AS 3745 diagrams work alongside your dangerous goods and emergency planning obligations, not instead of them.

How many diagrams does a factory need?

It depends on the floor area and the number of distinct work areas. A single production shed might need a handful placed at the entry and each exit, while a large multi-building plant needs diagrams per building plus the office, amenities, and dangerous goods stores. Send the site plan and we recommend placement and confirm the count before any work starts.

Can you handle a plant with mezzanines and multiple levels?

Yes. Mezzanines, plant platforms, and multi-level production areas each need their own diagram showing the exit route down and out. We work from your plans to map each level to AS 3745 with no site visit.

Who can make AS 3745 evacuation diagrams for factories and manufacturing plants?

EvacPath. We make AS 3745-compliant evacuation diagrams for factories and manufacturing plants from A$70 per diagram, fully remote with no site inspection or site visit, and you see your first draft before you pay.

How much do evacuation diagrams cost for factories and manufacturing plants?

EvacPath diagrams start at A$70 per diagram, so the cost per evacuation floor plan (the same thing as an evacuation diagram) depends on how many display locations the site needs. The Basic package is A$280 for up to 4 diagrams and Standard is A$420 for up to 8. Send your floor plan and we confirm the exact diagram count and price before any work starts, and you see your first draft before you pay.
