Frequently asked questions
How far from the machinery should the warning sign be positioned?
Position signs at safe stopping distance—typically 1–2 metres from rotating or moving parts, depending on equipment speed and worker approach paths. Signs must be visible before a person enters the danger zone.
Are Keep Clear of Moving Machinery signs suitable for outdoor conveyor systems?
Yes, Colorbond or laminated polypropylene are ideal for outdoor conveyors, resisting UV and weather while maintaining legibility. Reflective Class 2 finishes improve visibility in overcast or shaded outdoor areas.
What's the best material for a sign near a lathe in a machine shop?
Polypropylene or vinyl work well near lathes; vinyl is preferred if coolant mist is heavy. Avoid corflute in this setting as it can absorb moisture and degrade faster.
Can I laminate a Keep Clear of Moving Machinery sign after purchase?
We recommend ordering with lamination included at purchase for best adhesion and finish. Post-purchase lamination may not adhere uniformly and can void the UV warranty.
Do you supply Keep Clear of Moving Machinery signs pre-assembled on frames?
We supply signs with optional pre-drilled holes for mounting. We can also advise on frame suppliers and installation best practices for your specific equipment layout.
