Internally illuminated emergency signs are typicallyplaced in elevated locations which are awkward forelectricians to reach, yet must be securely mounted. It istherefore difficult and time-consuming to make wiringconnections after the mounting operation is completed. Inorder to facilitate both quick and easy wiring of the sign,and secure mounting thereof,an improved canopy features a projecting bracket which slipsinto a slot in a side or top of the sign housing, and engagesover horizontally extending screws. Rapid, yet securemounting of the sign is achieved by cantilevering the sign onthe bracket, if side mounting is used, or by use of a lockingpin, if top mounting is used. The locking pin keeps thescrews from sliding laterally with respect to the bracket.
