Product details
Identify the installed hose reel
Place the sign at, above or immediately beside the fire hose reel it identifies. Confirm that the equipment is actually present at that point and keep the complete pictogram and FIRE HOSE REEL legend visible on the normal approach.
Choose the material and readable size
Polypropylene is the default rigid material for routine indoor and general site use. Vinyl suits a prepared smooth surface, Corflute suits temporary placement, and Colorbond steel provides a stronger mechanically fixed face. Choose 225 × 300 mm for close-range identification, 300 × 450 mm for greater prominence, or 450 × 600 mm for larger or visually busy approaches.
Use separate directional signs where needed
The approved artwork has no arrow. Use it to identify the hose-reel location rather than to imply a route. Where the equipment cannot be seen from a doorway, corridor junction or other decision point, add directional signs only after confirming the actual path and arrow direction.
The sign is not the fire-safety system
A location sign does not supply, install, inspect, maintain or certify the hose reel and does not replace access control, emergency planning, staff instruction or fire-safety servicing. Keep the sign aligned with the installed equipment and the site's current fire-safety documentation.
Check the sign format before ordering
This printed sign identifies a fire hose reel location. It does not include, install, inspect, maintain or certify the equipment and does not replace emergency planning, access, staff instruction or fire-safety servicing. Confirm the site-specific equipment, placement and applicable requirements before ordering.

Before ordering
- Confirm that a fire hose reel is installed at the location the sign will identify.
- Check that the exact pictogram and FIRE HOSE REEL legend match the required site message.
- Choose the material and size for the mounting surface, exposure and normal approach.
- Add separately verified directional signs if the equipment cannot be seen from route decision points.
- Confirm access, installation, inspection, maintenance and site fire-safety requirements separately from the sign order.

Frequently asked questions
What is printed on this Fire Hose Reel sign?
The approved portrait artwork has a red field with a white hose-reel pictogram and the exact legend FIRE HOSE REEL. It has no directional arrow.
Does the sign include a hose reel or fire-safety service?
No. This product is the printed location sign only. It does not include a hose reel, cabinet, pipework, installation, inspection, maintenance, certification or fire-safety service.
Where should the Fire Hose Reel sign be installed?
Install it at, above or immediately beside the hose reel it identifies, where the complete face can be seen on the normal approach. Confirm the position with the building's fire-safety documentation and the competent person responsible for the equipment and site.
Can this sign direct people to a hose reel around a corner?
Not by itself. The approved artwork has no arrow, so it identifies the equipment location rather than a route. Use separately verified directional signs at genuine decision points when the reel cannot be seen from the approach.
Which material and size should I choose?
Polypropylene is the default rigid option for routine indoor and general site use. Vinyl suits a clean, smooth surface, Corflute suits temporary placement, and Colorbond steel provides a stronger mechanically fixed face. Choose 225 × 300 mm for close-range identification, 300 × 450 mm for a more prominent approach, or 450 × 600 mm for larger or visually busy areas.
What volume discounts apply?
Automatic volume pricing is 5–9 signs: 8% off, 10–24 signs: 15% off, 25–49 signs: 24% off, 50–99 signs: 32% off, 100+ signs: 40% off. The configurator is the source of truth and updates the unit price as quantity changes.
