Overview
Mind your step sign printing is for the step nobody expects. A single stair down into a pub snug, a raised threshold on a site cabin, a ramp edge in a warehouse, or cable covers across a walkway. People look ahead, not at their feet, so the warning has to be at eye height and in the right colour.
Yellow means look out
This is a warning sign: a yellow triangle with black text and the ISO 7010 W007 floor-level obstacle symbol. The words "Mind Your Step" are set large and high-contrast, so they read in a second. Fix it immediately before the hazard, at a height people will notice as they approach.
Mind your step sign printing: landscape sizes
All three sizes are landscape, which suits a door frame, a hoarding or the wall above a step:
- A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) reads at about 12 m.
- A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) reads at about 17 m.
- A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) reads at about 24 m.
That works out at roughly 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25 mm of sign height.
Match the board to the job
3.5mm Correx is light, waterproof fluted polypropylene, made for temporary and site signs that move as the work moves. 3mm Foamex is a rigid PVC foam board that is easy to fix indoors or outside for a short while. 3mm Dibond aluminium composite is rigid and weatherproof, the one for a step that will still be there in five years. Each prints full colour, single sided.
On construction sites
The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 make contractors plan, manage and monitor their work so it is carried out without risks to health and safety, so far as is reasonably practicable. Flagging trip hazards across a changing site is part of that. The safety sign colours guide covers what each colour means.
A person checks every order for free before anything is made. Signs are made to order and dispatched from the UK, with production days on this page. UK mainland delivery is £7.95, free on orders of £100 or more after discounts; see delivery. More in construction site signs.

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.
| Size | Readable from up to about |
|---|---|
| A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) | 12 m |
| A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) | 17 m |
| A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) | 24 m |
Well lit or internally lit signs can be read from further away; dim areas need larger signs.
Questions
Quick answers about mind your step sign printing.
Which size of Mind Your Step sign can be read from across the room or yard?
Measure the distance first, then match it: 12 m calls for A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm), 17 m calls for A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) and 24 m calls for A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm). Traffic, dim corners or glare all justify going one size bigger. The largest, A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), is the choice for wide open spaces.
Does "Mind Your Step" come with a recognised safety symbol?
It does. The pictogram is ISO 7010 W007, Floor-level obstacle, drawn from public domain artwork and paired with the "Mind Your Step" wording.
Where should the "Mind Your Step" message go so people act on it?
The right place is just before the hazard, at a height people notice as they walk. Check nothing will stand in front of it, like open doors, stacked stock or parked vans.
Is there a legal rule behind the Mind Your Step sign?
Under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 the principal contractor has to stop unauthorised people getting onto the site. Signs at the boundary are part of how that is done. For the "Mind Your Step" sign, where signs go is set by your own risk assessment.
Could the Mind Your Step sign say something different, or carry our logo?
Yes, we can make it as a custom job. Tell us the text you want in place of "Mind Your Step", or send your logo. Write to us from the Contact page and a person replies.
How soon will the Mind Your Step sign reach me?
Standard takes 3 working days to make, or Express 2 working days. The courier then needs 1 to 3 working days, and the tracking link comes by email. Spend £100 on goods (design fees are not counted) and UK mainland delivery is free; otherwise it is £7.95 once.
Dibond, Correx or Foamex: which is right?
For a temporary job, Correx is the lowest cost and still light and waterproof. For a sign that stays outdoors long term, Dibond aluminium composite is the one. Keep Foamex for sheltered places.
How do I put the Mind Your Step sign up?
The rigid boards arrive without holes. On smooth walls and doors, sign-fixing tape is quickest; otherwise drill the board and screw it to a wall or post, or cable tie it to a fence. The vinyl version is self-adhesive: press it onto a clean, dry, smooth surface.
Asked by buyers
How much will the Mind Your Step Sign set me back?
£27.52 is where the Mind Your Step Sign starts, set up as A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) and 3.5mm Correx on the Saver speed. Change the size, material, extras, quantity or speed and the total on the page moves straight away. The price you see is the price you pay at checkout, with delivery the only thing that can be added. Delivery anywhere on the UK mainland is £7.95 an order, and it costs nothing once the goods come to £100 or more after any discount code (design and artwork fees are not counted).
If I buy the Mind Your Step Sign today, when will it leave you?
As the page first opens, the speeds for the Mind Your Step Sign are Express 2 working days, Standard 3 and Saver 5, counting Monday to Friday and skipping bank holidays. The count begins once we have your order and a file ready to print. A bigger size or a different material can move it by a day either way; each speed shows its own days as you choose. Tracking arrives by email on the day it ships, and the courier usually takes one to three working days from there.
Is delivery ever free?
It is £7.95 for the whole order, not per item, and free once the goods reach £100 after any discount code; design or artwork charges are left out of that £100. On its own the opening price of £27.52 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero. A mainland Highlands postcode puts a single £10 on the order. Northern Ireland has its delivery priced before you pay, and so do the Channel Islands, the Scottish islands, Scilly, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On its opening option, Mind Your Step Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.
How big does our Mind Your Step Sign have to be to read across a room or yard?
Stand where someone first needs to read "Mind Your Step" and pace out the gap to where it will hang. Then match that number: up to 12 m for A3 landscape, 17 m for A2 landscape or 24 m for A1 landscape. Dim corners or people on the move call for one size bigger. Those distances follow the ISO 3864-1 distance-factor method (25 mm of height per metre) and sit alongside your risk assessment, not in place of it. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all.
Which is the smallest and which the biggest sign I can order here?
Smallest: A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm), from £27.52. Biggest: A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), from £54.24. One more is listed in between, and every figure is for the cheapest options. Not sure which? Mark the space out with tape or string first and stand back to look. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. Material choices for Mind Your Step Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Where is the best spot for a Mind Your Step Sign?
Three things to get right with "Mind Your Step". Position: by the way in and right where the hazard begins, so nobody can reach the risk without walking past it. Visibility: good lighting, and no vans, doors or boxes hiding it. Upkeep: note the location with your risk assessment paperwork, then look now and again to make sure it is still there and legible. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.
What will people understand when they see a Mind Your Step Sign?
Its job is to flag up a hazard: "Mind Your Step" is laid out as a warning sign, built around a black-edged yellow triangle. The picture is W007 from ISO 7010 (floor-level obstacle), which gets the point across to visitors who read little or no English. Those colours and shapes come from the 1996 Safety Signs and Signals Regulations, which is why they look familiar.
Could you price an A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) sign for me?
From £36.41, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3.5mm Correx at £36.41, 3mm Foamex at £42.91 and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £61.17. Add £7.95 for UK mainland delivery, or nothing at all once the goods reach £100. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On its opening option, Mind Your Step Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.
We are kitting out a hall with several different signs. Can they all go in one order?
Yes. Put each sign in the basket with whichever size and board suits its spot, then pay once at checkout. One delivery charge covers the whole order, and it drops to nothing when the goods reach £100 after any discount code. Picking the same board for every sign gives the set a matching look; "Mind Your Step" comes in A3 landscape, A2 landscape and A1 landscape. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you.
And the largest sign, A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm): how much is that one?
From £54.24, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3.5mm Correx at £54.24, 3mm Foamex at £63.13 and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £88.40. Add £7.95 for UK mainland delivery, or nothing at all once the goods reach £100. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On this page, Mind Your Step Sign starts from £27.52.
Could the total go up after I reach the checkout?
The only thing that can join the goods price is delivery; the price you see is the price you pay at checkout. Delivery anywhere on the UK mainland is £7.95 an order, and it costs nothing once the goods come to £100 or more after any discount code (design and artwork fees are not counted). If you pick a paid design option, it sits in the basket as a separate line with its own fee, so every penny is listed before you pay. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. Material choices for Mind Your Step Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Can a private person buy a single sign?
Yes. One is enough, and you do not need a business name or an account to check out. The opening price is £27.52, and any bank card will do. On its own the opening price of £27.52 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero. A person still checks your file before it is printed, just as for a big order. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. On its opening option, Mind Your Step Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.
Is there a quicker turnaround for this sign?
Work back from the day you need it. Express takes 2 working days to get the Mind Your Step Sign out, against 5 on Saver, and costs £36.71 on the opening option rather than £27.52. Add up to three working days for the courier, plus any time you need to finish the file. Cutting it fine? Put your date in the question box before you order.
I live in the Scottish Highlands. Will the Mind Your Step Sign cost more to send?
The whole UK is covered. Outside it, sadly, we cannot deliver. Mainland addresses in the Highlands pay one extra £10 on the order, even when delivery would otherwise be free. For Northern Ireland, and for the Channel Islands, the Scottish islands, Scilly, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man, we tell you the delivery cost before you pay, so message us your postcode on the Contact page or our Get a quote page. Choose Saver and this sign leaves us after 5 working days; Express brings that down to 2. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On its opening option, Mind Your Step Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.
Will anyone look at my file before it is printed?
Every file gets a human check for size, bleed and resolution, and we contact you about any problem before printing. Nobody can know your details better than you, so double-check names, numbers and dates: we print what is supplied, and work begins once the order and file are confirmed. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm). Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all.
I am not a designer. What if the file I send turns out to be unusable?
You will not be left guessing. Each uploaded file is opened and looked over by a member of the team, and problems such as low-resolution pictures, no bleed or the wrong page size are sent back to you to fix before printing. If fixing it sounds like a chore, choose typesetting for £15: we lay out your text and logo, show you a first draft, then make up to two rounds of changes. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. On this page, Mind Your Step Sign starts from £27.52.
How many pixels does a photo need to print well on this sign?
Roughly 9,933 pixels across and 7,016 down for an A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) design, which is 300 dpi. Things read at arm's length need that 300 dpi at full size to stay crisp. Text and logos are safest as vector art, which never goes fuzzy. Pictures saved from a website or social media are nearly always too small, and our file check will point out any that could print blurred. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. For reference, Mind Your Step Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).
Can the wording on a Mind Your Step Sign be changed, or our logo added?
A school can add its crest to "Mind Your Step", a club its badge, a shop its name. Choose typesetting (£15) if you know the words, or design from your brief (£35) if you would like us to lay it out; each comes with one first draft and two rounds of changes. Have your own finished file? Upload it free and one of our team will look it over. Keep the symbol and safety colours unchanged so the sign still reads the right way. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.
What thickness is the Mind Your Step Sign, and does it feel sturdy?
For a rigid sign, the board sets the thickness: Correx at 3.5 mm, Foamex at 3 mm and Dibond at 3 mm. Foamex is a lightweight PVC foam board. Dibond has aluminium on both faces around a plastic middle, so it stays flat and firm but is easy to fix. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On this page, Mind Your Step Sign starts from £27.52.
Do builders and contractors buy the Mind Your Step Sign from you?
For sites, extensions and renovations, look under Builders & Construction in the shop: the Mind Your Step Sign is listed there. Prices begin at £27.52; 3 sizes are listed, starting at A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm); the material choices are 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. People buying for that kind of work often add Warning to the Public Building Sites Are Dangerous Sign or 24 Hour CCTV in Operation Site Banner. Put everything in one order and delivery is free at £100 or more.
We are putting up a full set of signs at our premises. Which ones sit well next to this one?
Two good companions for it are Warning Sudden Drop Sign and Warning Fragile Roof Sign. Each has a page of its own with every size, material and a live price, and picking one material for all of them makes the wall look like a matching set. Put the lot in a single basket and you pay one delivery charge, which drops to nothing when the goods reach £100. You will also find this sign in our Builders & Construction section.
It gets dark early in winter. Can people still read the Mind Your Step Sign in the evening?
Only if a light falls on it. The Correx, Foamex and Dibond versions are printed without any reflective or glow-in-the-dark layer. So for a church car park, a school path or a yard used on winter evenings, put it beneath a lamp that is already there, or add a light. If your risk assessment says a sign has to reflect or glow, buy that one from a firm that makes them. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. For reference, Mind Your Step Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).
Will a Mind Your Step Sign cope with rain and wind outdoors?
"Mind Your Step" can go outside as long as you match the material to the job. For a sign that stays out for years, Dibond is the one to choose. Correx is waterproof and happy outdoors for shorter spells. Foamex will manage a sheltered spot, such as a porch or under a canopy, but it is really an indoor board. Strong sun slowly fades any print, so glance at outdoor signs every so often and swap any that have become hard to read. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.
What is the easiest way to put up a Mind Your Step Sign?
It depends what "Mind Your Step" 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: cable ties, or a post, for the Correx board. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.
Which material is cheapest for the Mind Your Step Sign?
Taking the smallest size, A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm), as the example: 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £47.58, 3mm Foamex at £32.83 and 3.5mm Correx at £27.52. 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 £27.52. For reference, Mind Your Step Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).
Do we legally have to display a Mind Your Step 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 "Mind Your Step" 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 W007.
Can I send this sign back if I no longer need it?
Not for a change of mind. This sign is made for your order, and goods made to your specification fall outside the 14-day cancellation right (reg. 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013). You can still cancel and get all your money back before production begins. Anything faulty, damaged or wrong is covered by the Consumer Rights Act 2015, and we reprint it or refund you. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all.
Who looks after me once I have bought the Mind Your Step Sign?
You deal with FatPrint the whole way through. Once you order, somebody checks the artwork, the Mind Your Step Sign is printed specially for your order, and a courier delivers it with a tracking link by email. Need to ask something along the way? Use the question box here or the Contact page and a real person answers.
Do I have to register before I can buy?
No. Guest checkout is fine, and card payments go through Stripe, so a debit card or a credit card both work. If you choose to open an account while checking out, My Account keeps your past orders. Guest or not, you get an email confirming the order and another with tracking once it is sent. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. For reference, Mind Your Step Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).
We need a few different designs. Do they each need their own order?
One checkout covers the lot. Add a basket line for every design, attach the right file to each, then pay once. You pay a single delivery charge of £7.95 for the whole order, or nothing if the goods add up to £100 or more. Repeating one design on another line? Choose the artwork choice that points to a file already in the basket, and no second design fee is charged. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On this page, Mind Your Step Sign starts from £27.52.
Our club needs a big batch of signs, or an odd size. Can you price it?
Our Get a quote page is the place, and it also handles delivery to Northern Ireland and the islands. For anything the page cannot do, tell us the size, number, material, date and postcode on Get a quote, add a file if you have one, and we email a price back. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On this page, Mind Your Step Sign starts from £27.52.
I am not sure which options to pick for this sign. Can someone advise me?
Of course. Tell us three things: where this sign will go, whether it is for one day or for years, and your deadline. Send that through the question box on this page or the Contact page, and a member of the team will suggest options. If what you need is outside the options listed, the Get a quote page lets you describe it and get a price. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. On this page, Mind Your Step Sign starts from £27.52.
Our treasurer needs a receipt for the accounts. What do we get?
Every order gets a confirmation email listing what was bought, the options chosen and the amount paid, and a club, school or small firm can file that as its record of payment. What you pay for this sign is the price shown on the page plus any delivery charge, nothing more. If your accounts need a particular kind of invoice, ask through the Contact page before you order and we will tell you what we can provide. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Material choices for Mind Your Step Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Some of our visitors have poor eyesight. Will this sign be easy for them to read?
Good contrast, a simple bold typeface and the right size for the reading distance make the biggest difference. Our standard safety designs already use the high-contrast colour combinations set out for safety signs. Put it at eye level in good light, away from reflections, and use as few words as possible. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm). Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On this page, Mind Your Step Sign starts from £27.52.
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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.
Can the Mind Your Step Sign carry wording in two languages, for example English and Welsh?
A community centre or a surgery often wants every visitor to understand a notice, and this sign can do that. Tick typesetting for £15, then give us your wording in each language, already translated, since translation is not something we do. You get one first draft and two rounds of changes. Keep the same symbol and sign colours so nobody misreads it. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm). Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On this page, Mind Your Step Sign starts from £27.52.
Does a Mind Your Step Sign come upright or wide?
Landscape. "Mind Your Step" is offered in A3 landscape, A2 landscape and A1 landscape. That shape is made for wide spaces, such as a fence panel, the wall above a door or a long corridor. If your spot needs the opposite, pick one of the paid design options and we re-lay it to suit. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all.
The spot gets full sun all afternoon. Could this sign warp in the heat?
It depends on the board. Foamex is foamed plastic, and a large, thin sheet in strong sun can curve, most of all when it is held only at the corners. Dibond sandwiches a core between aluminium skins and stays flat, which is why people choose it for signs that live outdoors for years. If you go with Foamex, fix it flat to a wall along its length or pick a thicker option. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. For reference, Mind Your Step Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).
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. Trimming eats into the bleed area, so leave room in the design if you plan to trim anything off. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52.
