Melbourne workplaces are expected to have emergency procedures under Victoria's occupational health and safety laws, and evacuation diagrams drawn to AS 3745 put those procedures on the wall. From the CBD to Southbank, South Melbourne, and the inner-city suburbs, every commercial premises needs current diagrams that meet Australian Standards.
Melbourne's commercial landscape includes the dense CBD grid, the thriving Cremorne tech precinct, major retail strips, and expanding industrial areas in the west and southeast. Victorian regulations around Essential Safety Measures are among the most thorough in Australia, with building surveyors actively checking ESM compliance. The city's mix of heritage laneways and modern towers creates diverse evacuation diagram requirements.

“We were fitting out a new clinic and needed evacuation diagrams before opening. John drew them from our architect's plan, no site visit needed, and the first draft was with us within days. Really easy.”
“We needed five evacuation plans for a client's three-level office fit-out. John drew them from the designer's as-built drawings, no site visit, and the set went to our client the day it arrived. John was responsive, proactive and extremely clear in communication. Extremely pleased with the process and delivered product. Would highly recommend to any landlord or facilities management teams.”
Melbourne FAQ
What is the Essential Safety Measures (ESM) report and how do diagrams fit?
Victorian regulations require building owners to maintain an annual ESM report confirming all essential safety measures, including evacuation diagrams, are operational. The ESM report is logged with the building surveyor who can issue notices for non-compliance. Current AS 3745 diagrams are one of the standard line items checked each year.
Do Cremorne or Richmond fitouts need diagrams before or after occupation?
Diagrams must be in place before occupation, not after. Most building surveyors will not sign off on the Certificate of Occupancy without confirming evacuation diagrams are mounted. Order them at the same time you finalise the floor plan.
Are Melbourne laneway venue diagrams different from standard restaurant diagrams?
They follow the same AS 3745 standard, but laneway venues often have shared exit corridors with neighbouring tenancies and unusual back-of-house configurations. We map the actual usable exit paths from your floor plan, including common-area corridors that are not always obvious from a tenancy-only view.
How much do evacuation diagrams cost for a Melbourne business?
EvacPath diagrams start at A$70 per diagram. A small CBD office, Fitzroy shop, or Southbank cafe usually needs one or two, while a Collins Street high-rise tenancy or an apartment tower needs one per floor plus common areas, so the total depends on your building. Send the floor plan and we confirm the exact diagram count and price before any work starts. The pricing page has the current plans.
Do Melbourne apartment buildings and owners corporations need evacuation diagrams?
Yes. The common property of an owners corporation (lobbies, corridors, lift lobbies, car parks, and plant rooms) should have evacuation diagrams drawn to AS 3745. We map a diagram set covering each level and the shared spaces so the building surveyor can verify compliance.
