Overview

If "Forklift Safety" needs saying clearly, this is the sign, and forklift safety sign printing is what we do. It warns that forklifts work in this area, and you will find it in factory floors, yards, loading bays and warehouses.

Boards for forklift safety sign printing

For forklift safety 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

Indoors, Foamex or vinyl is plenty; for years outdoors, Dibond is the one.

Reading the sign

It reads "Forklift Safety". 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).

Where to fix it

At pedestrian ways into vehicle areas and on blind corners. Put stock-handling reminders where the stock is handled, not on a notice board by the canteen.

Sizing your forklift safety sign printing comes down to distance. Reading distance is worked out from the sign’s short side: about a metre for every 25 mm, the distance factor from ISO 3864-1. That makes A4 to about 8 m, A3 to about 12 m and A2 to about 17 m. Anything read from a distance or a moving vehicle wants the larger sizes.

Clear written rules back up the training your team already has.

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.

Send a print-ready PDF, build it in the online designer, or pay for our artwork service (you get 1 design and 2 rounds of changes). Whichever you pick, a person checks the file before it prints. Every forklift safety sign printing order is made to order and dispatched from the UK. Postage is £7.95 to the UK mainland and free over £100, worked out after discounts and not counting artwork fees. The Highlands add £10, and addresses in Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, Scilly or the Isle of Wight get a quote. Full details are on the delivery page.

Also worth a look: warehouse and stock signs and everything in safety signs. Stuck on the choice? Our guide to safety sign colours helps.

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

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

Questions

Quick answers about forklift safety sign printing.

What size do I need so people can read "Forklift Safety"?

Go by reading distance rather than wall space. In normal light, A4 (210 × 297 mm) covers 8 m, A3 (297 × 420 mm) covers 12 m and A2 (420 × 594 mm) covers 17 m. Choose one size up if people pass quickly or the area is poorly lit.

Does "Forklift Safety" come with a recognised safety symbol?

It does. The pictogram is ISO 7010 W014, Forklift trucks and other industrial vehicles, drawn from public domain artwork and paired with the "Forklift Safety" wording.

Where should the "Forklift Safety" message go so people act on it?

The right place is where footpaths meet forklift routes and at blind corners, facing people on foot. Check nothing will stand in front of it, like open doors, stacked stock or parked vans.

Am I legally required to display "Forklift Safety"?

No law names this sign; it backs up good practice and your own procedures. Clear instructions help staff stick to safe ways of working. Your risk assessment is what decides the exact positions.

Is anything added to the price of the "Forklift Safety" sign at checkout?

Only delivery, where it applies. What the page shows is what you pay for the goods at checkout. The £5.02 starting price for the "Forklift Safety" sign is the full price of the goods. Postage to the UK mainland is £7.95 per basket, not per item, and free when your goods total £100 or more.

Can I buy more than one Forklift Safety sign?

Yes, change the quantity before you check out; every sign is made to order. Need a big mix of different signs for a school, club or site? Use the Get a quote page. Postage to the UK mainland is £7.95 per basket, not per item, and free when your goods total £100 or more.

Will the Forklift Safety sign survive outdoors?

Yes, if you order it in Dibond, which cope with rain. Foamex is better kept indoors or somewhere sheltered. Pick the material in the options before you order.

Why is the Forklift Safety sign in these colours?

A yellow triangle with a black edge always means a hazard is ahead. The "Forklift Safety" sign uses that standard layout, so people read its meaning before the words.

Asked by buyers

How cheaply can I get hold of the Forklift Safety Sign?

Picked the way the page first loads, with A4 (210 × 297 mm) and self-adhesive vinyl, the Forklift Safety Sign comes to £5.02. Any other mix of options, a faster turnaround included, gets its own price the moment you choose it, and that figure is what you pay at checkout. Only delivery is left to add. On its own the opening price of £5.02 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

Which turnaround speeds can I choose for the Forklift Safety Sign?

Allow 6 working days on Saver, 4 on Standard or 2 on Express before the Forklift Safety Sign is handed to the courier, based on the options the page opens with. Weekends and bank holidays are not counted, and nothing starts until the order is paid and the artwork is confirmed. Pick another size or material and the days beside each speed update, sometimes by a day. After it leaves us, the courier normally delivers in one to three working days and you get the tracking link by email.

Which artwork services are offered with the Forklift Safety Sign?

Several routes, all chosen under Artwork on this page. Send your own finished file (no charge), we set your words and logo on a tidy layout, called typesetting (£15), we design it from your brief (£35), we redraw a blurry or low quality logo as sharp vector art (£30) or we create a brand new logo (£50). Typesetting and design from a brief each come with one first draft and two rounds of changes. The fee is the same whatever quantity you order and shows separately in the basket. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A4 (210 × 297 mm). On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Vinyl, Dibond or Foamex: which should we pick for a Forklift Safety Sign?

Decide by where "Forklift Safety" is going and how long it has to last. Staying outside for years, or somewhere busy where it may get knocked? 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, with metal skins, is the tough one. Indoors or under a porch? 3mm Foamex gives a light, smooth board. Going straight onto a door, window or smooth wall? The self-adhesive vinyl sticks flat with no drilling.

Which is the smallest and which the biggest sign I can order here?

The table has 3 sizes. At the small end, A4 (210 × 297 mm) costs from £5.02; at the top, A2 (420 × 594 mm) costs from £9.33. Each figure is for the cheapest set of options at that size. Unsure? Measure where it will go and check the view from the spot people will stand. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Which size of the Forklift Safety Sign can people read from further away?

Rough reading distances for "Forklift Safety": about 8 m for A4, 12 m for A3 or 17 m for A2. The rule of thumb behind them: each 25 mm of height buys roughly one metre of distance. If the light is poor, or people pass quickly on foot or at the wheel, go for the next size up. The figures use the distance factor from ISO 3864-1, and your own risk assessment should settle the final choice. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all.

Where is the best spot for a Forklift Safety Sign?

Picture someone arriving at a stockroom, a small warehouse or the back room of a charity shop who needs to see "Forklift Safety". Fix it at aisle ends, loading bays and anywhere people and vehicles cross paths. Give it decent light and a clear line of sight, with nothing parked, stacked or swinging open in front of it. Keep a short list of where each sign went: it slots into your risk assessment records and makes the odd walk-round check quick. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

What message is a Forklift Safety Sign giving?

Start with the symbol on "Forklift Safety". W014 is the ISO 7010 pictogram for forklift trucks and other industrial vehicles, so even someone without much English gets the gist at a glance. The design follows the warning sign pattern (a black-edged yellow triangle), used to flag up a hazard. That colour and shape code is laid down by the 1996 Safety Signs and Signals Regulations. Typical spots: a stockroom, a small warehouse or the back room of a charity shop.

I need several signs, some in different sizes. How do I buy them?

Each price on the page is for a single sign in the size and material chosen. Put the number you want in the box beside Add to basket and the total multiplies. For a different size or material, add it as a separate line; the basket keeps them apart. An artwork fee is charged once per line, whatever the quantity, and choosing to reuse the artwork from another item in your basket costs nothing more. Very large runs can go through Get a quote. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Before delivery, this sign costs from £5.02. Material choices for Forklift Safety Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

Could the total go up after I reach the checkout?

No surprises: what the page shows for this sign is the goods figure you pay at checkout. Delivery is the one extra, £7.95 to a UK mainland address, and it drops away when the goods reach £100 after discounts. Paid artwork help shows up as its own basket line, so you can check each amount before paying. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On this page, Forklift Safety Sign starts from £5.02.

Can I mix different safety signs in a single order?

You can. Each sign gets a separate basket line, with whatever size and board suit it, and you pay once at the end. Delivery is charged per order, not per sign: £7.95 to the UK mainland, or free once the goods come to £100 or more. For "Forklift Safety" the sizes are A4, A3 and A2. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all.

And the largest sign, A2 (420 × 594 mm): how much is that one?

From £9.33, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3mm Foamex at £42.91, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £61.17 and self-adhesive vinyl at £9.33. 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. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

I am not a business. Can I buy just one sign?

Of course. Anyone can order, with no trade account and no minimum beyond one. Prices for the Forklift Safety Sign begin at £5.02, checkout works without an account and you pay by card. Parents, clubs, churches and small shops order single items all the time. On its own the opening price of £5.02 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

How much does an A3 (297 × 420 mm) sign cost?

From £6.45, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3mm Foamex at £32.83, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £47.58 and self-adhesive vinyl at £6.45. 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. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. For reference, Forklift Safety Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A4 (210 × 297 mm).

Our event is close. Can the Forklift Safety Sign be rushed?

Yes. Choose Express and the Forklift Safety Sign can be on the way in 2 working days on the opening option, for £6.68, where Saver is £5.02 and takes 6 days. Then give the courier one to three working days, and send the artwork with the order, because the clock does not run until the file is sorted. If the date is really tight, message us on the Contact page before paying and we will tell you honestly.

How many pixels does a photo need to print well on this sign?

Close-up items need about 300 dpi at full size. So an A2 (420 × 594 mm) layout wants about 4,961 by 7,016 pixels. Keep lettering and logos as vectors if you can. An image copied off a web page or a social post rarely has enough pixels; if yours looks likely to print soft, our file check flags it. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Someone else is putting our file together. How does it reach you?

Easiest route: they send the finished file to whoever placed the order, and it gets uploaded after ordering. Up to 3 files of 25 MB each are fine. They can also reach us through the Contact page, as long as they quote your order number so it lands on the right job. Production waits for the checked file, so a late file means a later dispatch date. 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 A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Can the wording on a Forklift Safety Sign be changed, or our logo added?

Yes. To reword "Forklift Safety" or add a logo, pick the typesetting option (£15) for your text and logo on a clean layout, or the design-from-your-brief option (£35), then send us the details. Both paid options include one first draft and two rounds of changes. Uploading your own print-ready file costs nothing, and someone on our team looks it over before printing. Leave the safety symbol and its colours untouched, though: altering them makes the meaning less clear. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

Will anyone look at my file before it is printed?

Yes, a real person on our team opens every uploaded file and checks the size, the bleed and the resolution. If something is off, you hear from us before anything is made. We print what you send, though, so read the spelling, numbers and dates yourself as well. Making starts when the order and the file are both confirmed. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A4 (210 × 297 mm). Material choices for Forklift Safety Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

Does the Forklift Safety Sign come in a peel-and-stick version?

It does. Pick self-adhesive vinyl from the material list and it comes as a peel-off sticker. That is handy on a glass shop door, a classroom cupboard, a machine or a smooth painted wall, anywhere screwing a board up would be awkward. Wipe the spot, let it dry, then press it down from the centre outwards to push the air away. On rough brick or dusty surfaces, a board will hold better. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Material choices for Forklift Safety Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

What thickness is the Forklift Safety Sign, and does it feel sturdy?

Three millimetres, whichever board you go for. Pick self-adhesive vinyl instead and you get a thin film that lies flat against whatever you stick it to. Dibond feels stiff because a plastic core is sandwiched between two thin aluminium sheets, yet it is still simple to screw or stick up. Foamex is foamed PVC, so it weighs very little in the hand. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. For reference, Forklift Safety Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A4 (210 × 297 mm).

I work with lifting equipment inspectors. Is this sign something we could use?

Yes: the Forklift Safety Sign sits in our Lifting & Inspection section, next to other things lifting equipment inspectors buy for lifting gear checks. Prices begin at £5.02. 3 sizes are listed, starting at A4 (210 × 297 mm). The material choices are self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Also in that section: Do Not Use / Out of Service Labels and Ensure New Stock Is Placed Behind Existing Stock Sign. One basket can hold the lot, and delivery is free once the goods reach £100.

We are putting up a full set of signs at our premises. Which ones sit well next to this one?

A school corridor, a shop floor or a club house rarely needs just one notice. Two that often go up beside this one: Goods Inwards Sign and Goods Outwards Sign. Keep every sign in one board type so the set matches, look up sizes and prices on each page, then check out once: one delivery charge for the whole basket, free over £100 of goods. You will also find this sign in our Lifting & Inspection section.

It gets dark early in winter. Can people still read the Forklift Safety Sign in the evening?

Not in pitch darkness. Pick Foamex, Dibond or vinyl sticker and it is the same story: nothing on this page reflects headlights or glows by itself. Fix it where a street light, porch light or security lamp already shines, or fit a small light above it. Where a risk assessment asks for photoluminescent or reflective signs, those need to come from a specialist maker rather than from us. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. On this page, Forklift Safety Sign starts from £5.02.

Will a Forklift Safety Sign cope with rain and wind outdoors?

Rain is rarely the problem for "Forklift Safety"; sunshine is. Every printed sign fades slowly in strong sun, so make a habit of checking outdoor ones and renew any that have faded too far. Dibond is the board to pick for a permanent outdoor home. Foamex copes with a covered spot but prefers life indoors. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

What is the easiest way to put up a Forklift Safety Sign?

To mount "Forklift Safety" on a wall, drill a hole near each corner of the board and screw it on with a washer under each head; stop once it feels snug, as Foamex in particular does not like being overtightened. Where drilling is not wanted, say on a painted door or a smooth wall inside, double-sided foam tape or sticky pads hold it well. For a fence, make a hole at each corner and loop cable ties through. The vinyl one needs no tools: peel off the backing and press it on once the surface has been wiped and dried. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

Does the material change the price of the Forklift Safety Sign?

Taking the smallest size, A4 (210 × 297 mm), as the example: self-adhesive vinyl at £5.02, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £40.79 and 3mm Foamex at £27.79. 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 £5.02. On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Where do the Forklift Safety Sign and the Goods Outwards Sign differ?

Set the Forklift Safety Sign beside the Goods Outwards Sign and a few things differ. Sizes: 3 on this page, the smallest A4 (210 × 297 mm), and 3 on the other, the smallest 200 × 50 mm. Opening price: £5.02 on this page and £3.81 on the other. Go by the spot it is going in and how long it needs to last, then open both pages and compare the live totals.

Do we legally have to display a Forklift Safety Sign?

Your risk assessment answers that one for "Forklift Safety". Where it shows a risk still remains after other steps, the 1996 Safety Signs and Signals Regulations say an employer must signpost it, and that applies to a cafe with two staff as much as a factory. Signs back up the other measures you take; they are never a substitute for them. The symbol on this sign follows ISO 7010, reference W014.

Who looks after me once I have bought the Forklift Safety Sign?

FatPrint does, from start to finish. We take your order and payment, a person on our team checks your file, and the Forklift Safety Sign is made to order for you rather than taken off a shelf. It then goes to you by courier, with tracking sent by email. Questions before or after ordering go through the box on this page or the Contact page, and a person replies.

How do I work out how many Forklift Safety signs to order?

Picture someone arriving for the first time. Every door they could come through, every approach to the risk and every corner where the route bends is a place for a sign. Large sites and long corridors usually need repeats, with bigger versions where people read from a distance. Put matching signs on a single basket line and raise the quantity; different sizes or materials go on lines of their own. Before delivery, this sign costs from £5.02. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On this page, Forklift Safety Sign starts from £5.02.

Can I send this sign back if I no longer need it?

If it arrives faulty, damaged or not what you ordered, yes: under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 we reprint or refund. A change of mind is different. Each order is made to your specification, and reg. 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 takes those goods out of the 14-day right to cancel. Before production starts, though, you can cancel for all your money back. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all.

Do I pay delivery on each item in my basket?

No. One delivery charge covers the whole basket, so adding the Forklift Safety Sign to other items does not add a second one. It is £7.95 to a UK mainland address and nothing once the goods total £100 after any discount code. Using the same design on two items? Pick the reuse-artwork option on the second one and you pay the artwork fee just once. Each line keeps its own size and quantity.

Our club needs a big batch of signs, or an odd size. Can you price it?

Yes. Fill in our Get a quote page, giving the size, how many, the material, when you need it and the delivery postcode, and attach your artwork if it is ready. A price comes back to you by email. Get a quote is also how delivery to Northern Ireland and the islands gets priced. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all. Before delivery, this sign costs from £5.02.

Do I have to register before I can buy?

There is no need to sign up. Pay as a guest with a bank card, handled securely by Stripe, and you still get an order confirmation email and a tracking email on dispatch. An account is optional; it just keeps your order history in one place. Before delivery, this sign costs from £5.02. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A2 (420 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Next year we will want the same sign again. Is reordering easy?

Very. Choose the same product with the same options and upload the same file, and it is made again exactly as before. Save the final print file somewhere safe, as that makes a repeat order a two-minute job. Before you repeat it, read the wording again: dates, prices, opening times and contact details are the things that go out of date. Before delivery, this sign costs from £5.02. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. For reference, Forklift Safety Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A4 (210 × 297 mm).

I am ordering this sign for a school or charity. Do I need to open an account?

No account is needed. Guest checkout lets a parent, volunteer or club secretary order once and pay by debit or credit card through Stripe. The price you see is the price you pay at checkout, and the confirmation email you receive lists the items and the amount paid for your records. If the committee needs a price agreed before anyone pays, the Get a quote page is the better starting point. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Before delivery, this sign costs from £5.02. For reference, Forklift Safety Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A4 (210 × 297 mm).

Should I send my file as RGB or CMYK?

CMYK if you can. An RGB file gets converted to CMYK for printing, and vivid greens, blues and oranges may lose a little brightness on the way. Have a Pantone number for your brand colour? Tell us and we match it as near as the material lets us. Expect a small shift between screen and print either way: a screen shines light at you, while a printed item reflects it. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A4 (210 × 297 mm). For reference, Forklift Safety Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A4 (210 × 297 mm).

The spot gets full sun all afternoon. Could this sign warp in the heat?

Foamex can, Dibond will not. A big, thin Foamex board warms up in direct sun and may bow, especially with fixings only at the corners. Dibond has aluminium faces and keeps its shape, so it is the sensible pick for a long-term outdoor sign. With Foamex, more fixings across a flat wall, or a thicker board, helps it stay straight. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Before delivery, this sign costs from £5.02. On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Could the Forklift Safety Sign go on a door, say an office or classroom door?

Start with the position: eye level, on the push side or on the wall next to the frame, so the message is still visible with the door open. For the door itself, choose self-adhesive vinyl, which suits painted doors and glass panels. A 3mm Foamex board on foam tape also sits well on a flat door. On a fire door, get the go-ahead from whoever looks after the building before any screws go in. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. On its opening option, Forklift Safety Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.
