First I want to say that the retail store shown in today’s Fixed-it Friday photo is one of my very favorite stores.  It’s a great company and I love their products and the friendly service their employees provide.

When I saw this secondary exit in one of their stores recently, I noticed the way they had marked certain doors as “NOT AN EXIT”, with the exit door clearly marked and equipped with code-compliant hardware.  Ok…the boxes and cart probably shouldn’t be there, but I’ll give them an E for effort, especially since the extra signs would not typically be required by the model codes.

What do you think?  Are the “NOT AN EXIT” signs a nice-to-have or a need-to-have?  If you were an AHJ…WWYD?
