Overview

This mandatory sign puts the information right where people are looking for it. Typical homes for it are public buildings, warehouses, shops and offices. Our keep this area clear at all times sign printing is made to order in the size and board you choose.

What the sign says

It reads "Keep This Area Clear at All Times". Blue circle means "you must". It is an instruction, not advice.

Where to fix it

At eye height, right where people have to act on it. Fix them on or just above the area that must stay clear, for example a fire door, a loading bay or an electrical cupboard.

Before you order keep this area clear at all times sign printing, think about how far away people will be. 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, A2 to about 17 m and A1 to about 24 m. Pick bigger for car parks, yards and long runs of corridor.

Keep this area clear at all times sign printing: choosing the board

Our keep this area clear at all times sign printing comes on three kinds of board:

  • 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.

Keep the instruction short. People read these in passing, often with their hands full.

The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 set the look of a "must do" sign: a blue circle with a white symbol or instruction.

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 keep this area clear at all times sign printing order is made to order and dispatched from the UK. Delivery to a UK mainland address is £7.95, or free once the order passes £100 after any discount (artwork fees are not counted). Mainland Highlands postcodes add £10; Northern Ireland, the islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, Scilly and the Isle of Wight are quoted. Full details are on the delivery page.

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 keep this area clear at all times sign printing.

Which size of Keep This Area Clear at All Times sign can be read from across the room or yard?

Measure the distance first, then match it: 8 m calls for A4 (210 × 297 mm), 12 m calls for A3 (297 × 420 mm), 17 m calls for A2 (420 × 594 mm) and 24 m calls for A1 (594 × 841 mm). Traffic, dim corners or glare all justify going one size bigger. The largest, A1 (594 × 841 mm), is the choice for wide open spaces.

Is there a standard pictogram that says "Keep This Area Clear at All Times"?

ISO 7010 has nothing specific to this message, so the sign uses the general mandatory action symbol, M001, alongside the text.

Where do I fix the Keep This Area Clear at All Times sign?

For "Keep This Area Clear at All Times", the usual spot is at eye level in the space the instruction is about. Walk the route yourself and make sure it is seen from the direction people come.

Am I legally required to display "Keep This Area Clear at All Times"?

The format comes from the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996: a white symbol or instruction inside a blue circle, meaning something people must do. Your risk assessment is what decides the exact positions.

Which material works best for the "Keep This Area Clear at All Times" sign?

Inside, 3mm Foamex is light and quick to put up. Self-adhesive vinyl sticks to smooth doors, glass and machines. If it is going outside, or needs to take knocks, choose Dibond aluminium composite.

What do I need to mount the "Keep This Area Clear at All Times" sign?

For a rigid board, either double-sided sign tape or a drill and screws, since boards come undrilled; cable ties work on fencing. Vinyl needs nothing extra: peel and stick onto a clean, dry, smooth surface.

Can I get this sign with my own words or logo?

Yes. Custom wording or a logo is a separate job. Send the replacement for "Keep This Area Clear at All Times" or your logo file. Use the question box on this page, or the Get a quote page for a bigger job.

Asked by buyers

How cheaply can I get hold of the Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign?

Picked the way the page first loads, with A4 (210 × 297 mm) and 3mm Foamex, the Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign comes to £26.33. 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 £26.33 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

Which turnaround speeds can I choose for the Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign?

Allow 5 working days on Saver, 3 on Standard or 2 on Express before the Keep This Area Clear at All Times 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.

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 Keep This Area Clear at All Times 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 this page, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign starts from £26.33.

Vinyl, Dibond or Foamex: which should we pick for a Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign?

Decide by where "Keep This Area Clear at All Times" 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 size of the Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign can people read from further away?

Rough reading distances for "Keep This Area Clear at All Times": about 8 m for A4, 12 m for A3, 17 m for A2 or 24 m for A1. 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 A1 (594 × 841 mm), 4 in all.

What message is a Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign giving?

Start with the symbol on "Keep This Area Clear at All Times". M001 is the ISO 7010 pictogram for general mandatory action sign, so even someone without much English gets the gist at a glance. The design follows the mandatory sign pattern (a solid blue circle), used to tell people something they have to do. That colour and shape code is laid down by the 1996 Safety Signs and Signals Regulations. Typical spots: an office, a shop, a school or a club house.

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.

Can I mix different safety signs in a single order?

If the date is really tight, message us on the Contact page before paying and we will tell you honestly.

Can the wording on a Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign be changed, or our logo added?

Yes. To reword "Keep This Area Clear at All Times" 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). For reference, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign is listed in 4 sizes, the smallest being A4 (210 × 297 mm).

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 A1 (594 × 841 mm) layout wants about 7,016 by 9,933 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 this page, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign starts from £26.33.

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. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 4 in all. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. On this page, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign starts from £26.33.

What thickness is the Keep This Area Clear at All Times 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. Material choices for Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

Does the Keep This Area Clear at All Times 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. For reference, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign is listed in 4 sizes, the smallest being A4 (210 × 297 mm).

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: Mop Up Spills Quickly Sign and Please Keep Off the Grass 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. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

Will a Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign cope with rain and wind outdoors?

Rain is rarely the problem for "Keep This Area Clear at All Times"; 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.

It gets dark early in winter. Can people still read the Keep This Area Clear at All Times 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. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.33. On its opening option, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

What is the easiest way to put up a Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign?

To mount "Keep This Area Clear at All Times" 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.

Does the material change the price of the Keep This Area Clear at All Times 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. On this page, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign starts from £26.33.

Do we legally have to display a Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign?

Your risk assessment answers that one for "Keep This Area Clear at All Times". 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 M001.

Do I pay delivery on each item in my basket?

No. One delivery charge covers the whole basket, so adding the Keep This Area Clear at All Times 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.

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 £26.33. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Material choices for Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

Who looks after me once I have bought the Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign?

FatPrint does, from start to finish.

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.

I am not sure which options to pick for this sign. Can someone advise me?

Yes. Type your question into the box on this page and a real person replies. Mention where the sign will be used, how long you need it to last and the date you need it by.

Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Material choices for Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

We need a few different designs. Do they each need their own order?

No. Each design goes into the basket as a separate line with its own file or online design, and you pay for them all in one checkout. Delivery is counted once for the whole order and costs nothing when the goods reach £100. If two lines share the same artwork, pick the artwork option that reuses a file already in your basket, so any design fee is only paid once. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.33. For reference, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign is listed in 4 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.

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

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 A1 (594 × 841 mm), 4 in all.

Yes. Choose the typesetting option (£15) and send us the words in every language you want on it. That covers one first draft and two rounds of changes. We lay out the text exactly as you supply it but we do not translate, so have the translation done first. Leave the symbol and colours as they are, so the meaning is clear whichever language someone reads.

What if A1 (594 × 841 mm) is still too small for the Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign?

We can still help. Put the size you need, the material and the quantity into the quote request form and we will send a price. For reference, the listed range ends at A1 (594 × 841 mm), and that size costs £70.72 or more. Bear in mind that anything past A0 goes by oversize courier, a one-off £15 on the order. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 4 in all. On this page, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign starts from £26.33.

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. Sizes for this sign go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 4 in all. On this page, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign starts from £26.33.

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

Yes, with ordinary tools. For Foamex or Correx, a sharp craft knife and a straight metal edge work: a few light passes, then snap or cut through. Dibond has aluminium skins and needs a fine-toothed saw. Drill slowly with a standard bit and stay at least 10 mm from any edge. Any cutting removes some of the bleed, so plan the layout with that in mind. 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. On this page, Keep This Area Clear at All Times Sign starts from £26.33.

Could the Keep This Area Clear at All Times 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.
