Frequently asked questions
When would I use the alternative format instead of the standard variant?
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 both formats equally compliant?
Yes. Both variants meet AS 1319 and WHS requirements for smoking-permitted signage. Choice between them is operational, not regulatory.
What's the typical installation height?
Mount at eye level (1.4–1.7 m) near zone entrances so the message is visible before someone enters. For gate posts or fence lines, position to be legible from the approach path.
Can I laminate polypropylene for extra durability?
Yes. Lamination is available as an extra and adds weather protection and gloss finish. It's recommended for high-traffic areas or outdoor locations exposed to salt spray or UV.
Do you customise text or graphics for internal site zones?
Standard designs are printed as-is. For custom text (e.g. zone names or specific rules), contact sales to discuss custom print options and lead times.
