Escape-room injuries are rarely dramatic, but they're real: people move fast in low light, force props that shouldn't be forced, and some guests get anxious in a locked, enclosed space. A good template covers a health/comfort disclosure and sets expectations about handling the set — which also protects your props.

What's inside

What your escape room waiver should include

  1. 1

    Confined-space & health disclosure

    Asks guests to confirm they're comfortable in dim, enclosed spaces and to disclose claustrophobia, anxiety, or conditions affected by low light.

  2. 2

    Don't force the props

    Guests agree not to use excessive force on walls, locks, or props — protecting both them and your set, and reducing your liability for self-inflicted injury.

  3. 3

    Emergency exit acknowledgment

    Confirms guests were shown the emergency exit and understand the room can be opened from inside at any time.

  4. 4

    Release & waiver of liability

    Releases your business and staff from claims arising out of participation, including ordinary negligence, to the extent your local law allows.

  5. 5

    Acknowledgment & signature

    Confirms the signer read and understood the waiver and signs it freely, with a printed name, signature, and date.

FAQ

Escape room waiver template FAQ

Should an escape-room waiver cover claustrophobia?
Yes — a short health/comfort disclosure is wise given the enclosed setting. It lets guests opt out and documents that they were informed before entering.
Can one booking sign for the whole group?
Each adult signs for themselves and a guardian covers minors. Once you move to JustWaiver, a single party link lets everyone sign from their phones.
Is the template free to download?
Yes — free PDF, just leave an email.
Do I need an attorney?
Yes, we recommend it. This is a sample, not legal advice — have it reviewed for your state.
