Check the sign format before ordering
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.

Frequently asked questions
When should I use Type B instead of Type A?
Type B designates high-speed or restricted-access forklift zones where unauthorised personnel must not enter. Use Type A for general mixed-traffic areas.
Do I need multiple signs around a large yard?
Yes, AS 1319 requires danger signs at every entry point to the hazard zone. Plan for one sign per entry and consider additional signage at 15–20 metre intervals in large areas.
What is the typical lifespan of a polypropylene sign?
Polypropylene lasts 3–5 years outdoors without lamination, and 5–7 years with lamination. Colorbond steel can last 10+ years in most climates.
Can signs be installed on chain-link fencing?
Yes, use cable ties or zip ties through pre-drilled holes, or apply self-adhesive vinyl directly to the mesh. Ensure the sign is taut and visible from both sides if needed.
Do you offer emergency replacement for damaged signs?
Trade customers with standing orders can request expedited replacement shipments. Contact our support team with your account number for priority processing.
