Description
Warn workers and contractors that roof surfaces cannot support body weight and present a fall hazard. Essential for renovation projects, maintenance work, heritage buildings, and any site with lightweight or deteriorated roofing.

Available in corflute, polypropylene, colorbond, and vinyl across three sizes (300×450 mm to 600×900 mm). Reflective Class 1 and Class 2 finishes enhance visibility on high roofs or in poor light.

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
Is this sign a legal requirement on building sites with fragile roofing?
Yes, AS 1319 and Australian workplace safety standards require hazard warnings on fragile roofs. This sign fulfils that obligation and protects your liability.
What's the best way to mount a sign on a pitched or sloped roof?
Use the holes option with corrosion-resistant fasteners or adhesive-backed vinyl for smooth surfaces. Ensure the sign is visible from ground level and access points.
Can I order multiple signs for a large renovation project?
Absolutely. Trade customers and bulk orders receive tiered discounts. Provide your project scope for a competitive quote.
Which material withstands roof-top weather exposure best?
Colorbond is the most durable for exposed roof environments; vinyl with lamination also resists UV and moisture. Avoid corflute in direct, prolonged sunlight.
How quickly can you deliver to regional or remote building sites?
We dispatch within 2–3 business days and deliver Australia-wide via courier and freight. Regional sites typically receive orders within 5–10 days.
