Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between corflute and colorbond for hazardous areas?
Corflute is lightweight and cost-effective for indoor use; colorbond is heavier-gauge and better suited to outdoor or high-traffic zones where impact resistance matters. Both meet AS 1319 colour and contrast standards.
Should I use reflective versions in confined spaces?
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 multiple signs for different entry points?
Use the bulk order function or contact our trade team directly. We can coordinate delivery to multiple site locations on a single invoice.
Are pre-drilled options available?
Yes. Four-corner pre-drilled holes are available as an optional extra. The configurator shows the current surcharge for the selected material and size before checkout.
What's your return policy if a sign doesn't fit my space?
We offer a 14-day return window on unused stock. For custom sizing or material swaps, contact our sales team—we can often accommodate last-minute changes.
