Product details
A pictogram-only Shallow Water warning—the yellow-triangle depth marker without text. This compact format works as a secondary reinforcement sign along pool-deck coping and in multilingual venues where signage clutter must be minimised. Polypropylene is the standard material for this smaller, high-traffic application.
Install every 5–10 metres alongside your primary full-legend sign to maintain continuous depth awareness as swimmers move around the shallow end. Sizes range from 300×450 mm to 600×900 mm. Platinum Signs supplies leisure facilities across Australia with bulk pricing, pre-drilled mounting holes, and lamination options for extended durability in wet environments.

Frequently asked questions
Where should secondary picto markers go?
Space them 5–10 metres apart along the shallow-end coping, change-room exits, and splash-pad perimeter. Position at eye level (1.5–1.8 m) for clear sightlines.
Is polypropylene suitable for outdoor pools?
Polypropylene handles sun exposure well in temperate climates, but in coastal or extreme UV zones, consider lamination for added UV protection or upgrade to marine aluminium.
Can I mix picto and full-legend signs?
Yes. Install the full "Shallow Water" legend sign at the main entry and use picto-only markers as secondary reinforcement around the deck.
What's included in the lamination option?
UV-protective laminate seals the sign surface, reducing moisture ingress and extending lifespan in humid pool environments by 3–5 years.
Do you supply pre-drilled mounting holes?
Yes. Four-corner pre-drilled holes are an optional extra with a base surcharge of $3.00 inc GST per sign for the listed configurations, before any applicable volume discount. Select the option to update the configured total before adding to cart.
