Description
This AS 2416.1 warning sign alerts swimmers to shallow depths using the standard yellow-triangle format. Essential for above-ground pools, wading areas, splash pads, and the shallow end of public facilities where depth awareness prevents injury. The sign works best alongside a No Diving prohibition marker to address both the hazard condition and the unsafe behaviour it invites. Available in marine-grade aluminium for coastal and outdoor pools, polypropylene for indoor commercial and residential installations, and vinyl for glass enclosures. Sizes range from 225×300 mm to 600×900 mm. Platinum Signs offers bulk pricing for leisure operators, trade accounts with extended payment terms, and Australia-wide delivery within 5–7 working days.
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
What material suits an outdoor coastal pool?
Marine-grade aluminium resists salt spray and UV exposure without corrosion or fading. Specify this option at checkout or contact our trade team for bulk orders.
Can I order custom sizes?
Standard sizes are 225×300, 300×450, 450×600, and 600×900 mm. For non-standard dimensions, contact our sales team with your venue layout and we'll provide a quote.
Do you offer 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.
What's the difference between this and No Diving?
Shallow Water warns swimmers of depth conditions (yellow triangle = hazard awareness). No Diving prohibits a specific action (red circle = forbidden). Most facilities install both to address the hazard and the risky behaviour separately.
Do you offer trade discounts?
Automatic volume pricing is 5–9 signs: 8% off, 10–24 signs: 15% off, 25–49 signs: 24% off, 50–99 signs: 32% off, 100+ signs: 40% off. The configurator is the source of truth and updates the unit price as quantity changes.
