Overview

If "Caution Electric Vehicles Are Operating in Area" needs saying clearly, this is the sign, and caution electric vehicles are operating in area sign printing is what we do. It tells people on foot that vehicles are moving and turning close by, and you will find it in site access roads, depots, loading bays and yards.

Reading the sign

It reads "Caution Electric Vehicles Are Operating in Area". Yellow triangle, black border: the shape everyone reads as "watch out". The layout is a yellow triangle above black wording, plus the ISO 7010 W014 symbol (forklift trucks and other industrial vehicles). The CAUTION heading tells people to watch out; the line beneath says for what.

Where to fix it

Where walkers and vehicles cross, readable from both sides. Give people time to react: the sign should come before the hazard, not after it.

Sizing your caution electric vehicles are operating in area sign printing comes down to distance. Rule of thumb from ISO 3864-1: each 25 mm on the short side of the sign gives roughly a metre of reading distance. That makes A4 to about 8 m, A3 to about 12 m, A2 to about 17 m and A1 to about 24 m. Anything read from a distance or a moving vehicle wants the larger sizes.

Boards for caution electric vehicles are operating in area sign printing

For caution electric vehicles are operating in area sign printing, pick the board to suit the spot:

  • 3mm Foamex, a rigid PVC foam board that screws or sticks up easily and is happiest indoors or out for a season
  • 3mm Dibond, aluminium skins on a solid core, the one to pick for a sign that stays outside for years
  • self-adhesive vinyl, which sticks flat to smooth walls, doors, glass and machine guards

Inside, Foamex or vinyl does the job. Outside for the long haul, go Dibond.

A warning sign sits alongside your risk assessment and other controls; it does not replace them.

Under the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996, employers put up a safety sign wherever a risk is still there after other controls. Warning signs take the yellow triangle with a black edge.

Which size do I need?

A safety sign must be large enough to read from where people will see it. Our conservative guide, based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1, is about 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25 mm of sign height (the shorter side). Use it with your own risk assessment.

SizeReadable from up to about
A4 (210 × 297 mm)8 m
A3 (297 × 420 mm)12 m
A2 (420 × 594 mm)17 m
A1 (594 × 841 mm)24 m

Well lit or internally lit signs can be read from further away; dim areas need larger signs.

Questions

Quick answers about caution electric vehicles are operating in area sign printing.

It depends what "Caution Electric Vehicles Are Operating in Area" is going on. Brick or plaster: screws through holes near the corners, washers under the heads, and a light hand (Foamex especially). Painted doors and smooth walls inside: foam tape or sticky pads, no drilling needed. Fences and railings: two or four holes, then cable ties. Glass and glossy panels: the vinyl version, pressed on after a wipe and a dry. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

Which material is cheapest for the Caution Electric Vehicles Are Operating in Area Sign?

Taking the smallest size, A4 (210 × 297 mm), as the example: self-adhesive vinyl at £50.78, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £47.35 and 3mm Foamex at £26.33. Larger sizes follow a similar pattern, and the full grid sits in the size table further up the page. Think about where it is going first: a cheap material in the wrong spot can end up costing more. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.33. Material choices for Caution Electric Vehicles Are Operating in Area Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

Do we legally have to display a Caution Electric Vehicles Are Operating in Area Sign?

Not in every case. The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 require employers to put up safety signs where a risk is left over once other controls are in place. So whether you need "Caution Electric Vehicles Are Operating in Area" on display, and where it goes, comes out of your own risk assessment. A sign adds to other safety measures and never takes their place. The symbol on this sign follows ISO 7010, reference W014.

Will my logo colours come out the same as on screen?

Very close, but not always identical. A screen glows, print reflects light, so a small difference is normal. Sending CMYK artwork keeps it nearest; RGB is changed to CMYK before printing and the brightest greens, blues and oranges can look a touch flatter. For an exact brand colour, give us the Pantone reference and we get as close as the material allows. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 4 in all.

Can I cut this sign down to size, or drill fixing holes, at home?

Foamex and Correx cut cleanly with a sharp craft knife run along a metal rule: score it a few times, then cut or snap along the line. Dibond is aluminium on both faces, so use a fine-tooth saw and take it slowly. Holes for screws or ties can be made with a normal drill bit at low speed; keep each hole 10 mm or more in from the edge.
