Frequently asked questions
Is this sign suitable for both indoor and outdoor alarm stations?
Yes, though material selection matters. Use Colorbond for outdoor or high-moisture areas; polypropylene works well indoors where cost is a priority.
What does 'Type C' mean in the fire alarm standard?
The appropriate safety-sign category, wording, placement and supporting controls depend on the product purpose, site risk and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with your WHS adviser or regulator; a sign alone does not discharge WHS duties.
Are reflective options available for low-light areas?
Reflective grades provide different visibility performance. Choose the grade required by the project specification and site conditions, and confirm any road, traffic or high-risk requirement with the relevant authority before ordering.
How do I order in bulk for a large facility?
Volume-pricing examples are 5 signs: 8% off, 10 signs: 15% off, 25 signs: 24% off, 50 signs: 32% off, 100 signs: 40% off. Savings increase gradually between these quantities. The total increases as you add more signs, while the average price per sign falls or stays the same. The configurator calculates the total for your selected quantity.
Can the sign be customised with site-specific text?
Standard designs are pre-printed to AS 1319 specifications. Custom text or logos require a separate quotation—email your requirements to our design team.
