Ecoglo Design Process
Explore the detailed requirements for each stage of our design process below
Ecoglo has designed, supplied and installed hundreds of systems to meet New Zealand Building Code F6 Visibility in Escape Routes. While almost all of these have been completed in-house at Ecoglo’s head office we are now recruiting companies to expand their own capabilities by offering Ecoglo system designs to their clients.
PS1 Documentation
- Name of the building owner / developer.
- Legal address, including Lot No and DP. No.
- Name of the relevant Building Consent Authority.
- Fire report including fire safety drawings.
- Architectural plans and elevations
- If the building is existing or if the areas are built, any photos you have of the stairs, steps, and ramps are useful for our design.
Once we have all the information we need, we normally work to provide the documentation you need within a further 5 working days.
PS4 Documentation
To obtain a PS4 from Ecoglo, please provide the following documents and items:
- Consented Documents: Fire report, architectural drawings, and electrical plans (with council approval stamps).
- Producer Statements: Submit the Ecoglo Construction PS3 form (for non-powered components) and the Ecoglo Electrical PS3 form (for powered components) completed by qualified installers.
- Installation Photos: Include clear photos of stairs, ramps, exit doors, path markings, and exit signs as per Ecoglo’s numbered plan.
Fees for a PS4 are $375 + GST for non-electrical projects, $500 + GST for projects with electrical components, or quoted for larger jobs and site visits.
Following suitable installation and receipt of all the required items applicable to your design, we typically provide the PS4 within 5-7 working days.
