What is Area of Refuge?

An area of refuge is a location in a building designed to hold occupants with mobility challenges to wait for assistance from fire or other first responders in the event of a fire or other emergency when evacuation may not be safe or possible. Buildings with barriers to exit are required to have these designated locations offering protection for occupants and communication with firefighters or emergency personnel. A great example of when Area of Refuge would be required would be any multi-level building with an elevator or stairwell(s).
