Description
This sign uses the formal legal term "Closed Circuit" to signal surveillance compliance in regulated environments. The "cameras in operation" wording satisfies Privacy Act APP 5 notice obligations and aligns with state Surveillance Devices Act definitions. Preferred by financial institutions, pharmacies, and critical-infrastructure sites where formal language is required or expected. Supplied in colorbond, polypropylene, aluminium, and vinyl across three standard sizes (225×300 mm to 450×600 mm). Reflective Class 1 and Class 2 options, lamination, and pre-drilled mounting holes are available. Trade pricing and bulk discounts apply for multi-location deployments. Platinum Signs delivers across Australia and stocks materials rated for both internal lobbies and external perimeter use.
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
Why is 'Closed Circuit' the preferred wording in some industries?
'Closed Circuit' is the formal legal term used in surveillance-device definitions across state legislation. Regulated industries (finance, pharma, critical infrastructure) prefer this wording for clarity and consistency with regulatory frameworks. For retail and hospitality, 'CCTV In Operation' is equally valid and more widely recognised.
Is this sign suitable for ATM lobbies?
Yes — the formal wording and professional appearance suit ATM lobbies and bank entry points. The sign meets Privacy Act APP 5 requirements and is commonly used in financial settings.
Do I need different wording for different areas of my building?
No — one standard notice at each entrance satisfies the requirement. If your site has multiple access points, you may order multiple signs; Platinum Signs offers bulk discounts for this.
What size should I choose for a narrow entrance?
Available sizes are 225 x 300mm (Small), 300 x 450mm (Medium), 450 x 600mm (Large). Viewing-distance notes are a practical selection aid, not a substitute for checking the approach distance, lighting, mounting position, wording and site risk assessment.
Are there industry-specific compliance differences I should know about?
Financial and pharmaceutical premises may have additional signage or disclosure requirements under their own regulatory bodies. Platinum Signs recommends verifying your specific industry obligations; we can assist with custom wording if needed.
