Description
Enforce a hard access boundary around hazardous work zones using the DANGER format specified in AS 1319. This sign is appropriate for excavations, demolition perimeters, and active construction areas where entry could result in serious injury or death. It supports the principal contractor's hazard-management duty under WHS Regulation 34 and the Model Code of Practice: Construction Work. Red-oval DANGER design on black background, manufactured in colorbond, polypropylene, aluminium, or vinyl in 300×450 mm to 600×900 mm. Reflective class 1 and 2 options ensure visibility at all times. Platinum Signs provides Australia-wide delivery, trade account pricing, and customisation for site-specific hazard descriptions. Pair with physical barriers and spotters for maximum protection.
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
When should I use DANGER format instead of Notice format?
AS 1319 specifies DANGER (red oval) for situations where entry could cause injury or death—excavations, demolition, active machinery, and high-voltage zones. Use Notice (blue) for informational boundaries without immediate hazard. If you're unsure, consult your site safety officer.
Can I customise the hazard text below 'Keep Out'?
Yes. Specify alternative text such as 'Excavation Hazard', 'Demolition in Progress', or 'Unstable Ground' when ordering. We'll ensure it remains AS 1319 compliant and legible.
What size is best for a deep excavation perimeter?
Available sizes are 300 x 450mm (Medium), 450 x 600mm (Large), 600 x 900mm (Extra 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.
Should I use reflective material for a temporary excavation?
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 dispose of the sign when the hazard is removed?
Remove the sign and store it for future use or recycling. Aluminium and colorbond are fully recyclable; polypropylene and vinyl can be disposed of via general waste. Do not leave the sign in place once the hazard has been eliminated.
