Overview

Our danger high voltage no admittance sign printing starts with one job: the sign flags the voltage behind the door and the shock risk that comes with it. It earns its place in plant rooms, distribution boards, switch rooms and substations.

Where to fix it

On the door or cover of the electrical kit. Fix it at eye level on the enclosure, so it is seen before the door or cover is opened.

Before you order danger high voltage no admittance 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 200 x 50 to about 2 m, 250 x 75 to about 3 m and 297 x 100 to about 4 m. That suits doors, walls and counters, where people stand close.

The message

It reads "Danger High Voltage No Admittance". The DANGER header is saved for hazards that can kill or badly injure, which is why it gets noticed over the everyday caution signs. The layout is a yellow triangle with a heavy DANGER heading, plus the ISO 7010 W012 symbol (electricity).

Danger high voltage no admittance sign printing: which material

There is a board for each kind of spot in our danger high voltage no admittance sign printing range:

  • 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.

Anyone working on the equipment should see the warning before they see the kit.

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.

Upload your own file, lay it out in the online designer, or hand it to our paid artwork service, which includes 1 design and 2 rounds of changes. A person gives every file a free check first.

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
200 × 50 mm2 m
250 × 75 mm3 m
297 × 100 mm4 m

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

Questions

Quick answers about danger high voltage no admittance sign printing.

What size do I need so people can read "Danger High Voltage No Admittance"?

Go by reading distance rather than wall space. In normal light, 200 × 50 mm covers 2 m, 250 × 75 mm covers 3 m and 297 × 100 mm covers 4 m. Choose one size up if people pass quickly or the area is poorly lit.

Does "Danger High Voltage No Admittance" come with a recognised safety symbol?

It does. The pictogram is ISO 7010 W012, Electricity, drawn from public domain artwork and paired with the "Danger High Voltage No Admittance" wording.

Where is the best place to put the "Danger High Voltage No Admittance" sign?

Put it on the door or enclosure of the electrical equipment. Walk the route yourself and make sure it is seen from the direction people come.

Am I legally required to display "Danger High Voltage No Admittance"?

The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 call for a safety sign wherever a significant risk is left after other controls. Live electrical equipment is a common case. Your risk assessment is what decides the exact positions.

How soon will the Danger High Voltage No Admittance sign reach me?

Standard takes 4 working days to make, or Express 2 working days. After that, allow 1 to 3 working days with the courier; you get tracking by email. Postage to the UK mainland is £7.95 per basket, not per item, and free when your goods total £100 or more.

Could the Danger High Voltage No Admittance sign say something different, or carry our logo?

This one is printed exactly as shown, but a version with your own wording is possible. Tell us the text you want in place of "Danger High Voltage No Admittance", plus any logo or site details. Write to us from the Contact page and a person replies, and we will quote it.

How do I put the Danger High Voltage No Admittance sign up?

On smooth walls and doors, sign-fixing tape is quickest; otherwise drill the board and screw it to a wall or post. The vinyl version is self-adhesive: press it onto a clean, dry, smooth surface.

Foamex, Dibond or vinyl: which should I choose?

Ask where it is going. Outdoors or somewhere it may get knocked: Dibond aluminium composite. Smooth doors, glass or machinery: self-adhesive vinyl. Anywhere else indoors: 3mm Foamex, which is light and easy to fix.

Asked by buyers

How cheaply can I get hold of the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign?

Picked the way the page first loads, with 200 × 50 mm and self-adhesive vinyl, the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign comes to £3.81. 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 £3.81 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

Which turnaround speeds can I choose for the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign?

Allow 6 working days on Saver, 4 on Standard or 2 on Express before the Danger High Voltage No Admittance 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 Danger High Voltage No Admittance 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. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. On its opening option, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Which size of the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign can people read from further away?

Rough reading distances for "Danger High Voltage No Admittance": about 2 m for 200 × 50 mm, 3 m for 250 × 75 mm or 4 m for 297 × 100 mm. 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.

Where is the best spot for a Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign?

Picture someone arriving at a plant room, a meter cupboard or the stage area of a community theatre who needs to see "Danger High Voltage No Admittance". Fix it on the cabinet, cupboard door or piece of kit where the danger actually sits. 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 Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign giving?

Start with the symbol on "Danger High Voltage No Admittance". W012 is the ISO 7010 pictogram for electricity, so even someone without much English gets the gist at a glance. The design follows the danger sign pattern, used to mark out a serious hazard. That colour and shape code is laid down by the 1996 Safety Signs and Signals Regulations. Typical spots: a plant room, a meter cupboard or the stage area of a community theatre.

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 Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign begin at £3.81, 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 £3.81 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

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. Before delivery, this sign costs from £3.81. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you.

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 "Danger High Voltage No Admittance" the sizes are 200 × 50, 250 × 75 and 297 × 100 mm.

How much does a 250 × 75 mm sign cost?

From £4.01, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3mm Foamex at £24.26, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £36.05 and self-adhesive vinyl at £4.01.

Before delivery, this sign costs from £3.81. For reference, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being 200 × 50 mm.

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 200 × 50 mm at the small end to 297 × 100 mm, 3 in all. On this page, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign starts from £3.81.

Our event is close. Can the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign be rushed?

Yes. Choose Express and the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign can be on the way in 2 working days on the opening option, for £5.06, where Saver is £3.81 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.

Can the wording on a Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign be changed, or our logo added?

Yes. To reword "Danger High Voltage No Admittance" 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. Sizes for this sign go from 200 × 50 mm at the small end to 297 × 100 mm, 3 in all.

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. Sizes for this sign go from 200 × 50 mm at the small end to 297 × 100 mm, 3 in all. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as 200 × 50 mm. Material choices for Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

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

Close-up items need about 300 dpi at full size. So a 297 × 100 mm layout wants about 3,508 by 1,181 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. Sizes for this sign go from 200 × 50 mm at the small end to 297 × 100 mm, 3 in all. On its opening option, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

What thickness is the Danger High Voltage No Admittance 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, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being 200 × 50 mm.

Does the Danger High Voltage No Admittance 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 Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

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: Danger 11,000 Volts Sign and Danger High Voltage 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.

It gets dark early in winter. Can people still read the Danger High Voltage No Admittance 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. Sizes for this sign go from 200 × 50 mm at the small end to 297 × 100 mm, 3 in all. On this page, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign starts from £3.81.

Will a Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign cope with rain and wind outdoors?

Rain is rarely the problem for "Danger High Voltage No Admittance"; 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 Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign?

To mount "Danger High Voltage No Admittance" 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.

Should I get the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign, or would Danger 11,000 Volts Sign suit me better?

Set the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign beside the Danger 11,000 Volts Sign and a few things differ. Sizes: 3 on this page, the smallest 200 × 50 mm, and 4 on the other, the smallest A4 (210 × 297 mm). Opening price: £3.81 on this page and £5.02 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.

Does the material change the price of the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign?

Taking the smallest size, 200 × 50 mm, as the example: self-adhesive vinyl at £3.81, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £35.09 and 3mm Foamex at £23.55. 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 £3.81. On its opening option, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

Where do the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign and the Danger Electric Shock Risk Sign differ?

Set the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign beside the Danger Electric Shock Risk Sign and a few things differ. Sizes: 3 on this page, the smallest 200 × 50 mm, and 4 on the other, the smallest A4 (210 × 297 mm). Opening price: £3.81 on this page and £5.02 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.

How would I decide between Danger of Death Keep Out Sign and Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign?

Comparing the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign with the Danger of Death Keep Out Sign, this is what changes. Sizes: 3 on this page, the smallest 200 × 50 mm, and 4 on the other, the smallest A4 (210 × 297 mm). Opening price: £3.81 on this page and £5.02 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 Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign?

Your risk assessment answers that one for "Danger High Voltage No Admittance". 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 W012.

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.

Tell us quickly through the Contact page, quoting your order number. Before production starts we can take a corrected file, or cancel and refund the whole order. After that it cannot be changed. A print that matches your finished design or the file you sent is not a fault, so it pays to read every word and number before you order.

For reference, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being 200 × 50 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.

Our treasurer needs a receipt for the accounts. What do we get?

Message us from the Contact page with your order number. Before delivery, this sign costs from £3.81. Sizes for this sign go from 200 × 50 mm at the small end to 297 × 100 mm, 3 in all. On its opening option, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

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 200 × 50 mm at the small end to 297 × 100 mm, 3 in all.

The parcel turned up damaged. How do I sort it out?

Take photos of the damage and the box it came in, then send them through the contact form within 48 hours of delivery, with your order number. Hold on to the item rather than posting it back; we reply and arrange a reprint or refund. This sits alongside your legal rights, which the returns page covers. Choose Saver and this sign leaves us after 6 working days; Express brings that down to 2. Before delivery, this sign costs from £3.81. On its opening option, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

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 200 × 50 mm.

Bleed and dpi mean nothing to me. Can I still get printing done?

Yes. You do not need any print knowledge to order the Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign. Send us your words and logo with the typesetting option (£15) and we build the layout, then you get a first draft and two rounds of changes. Whatever you choose, a real person looks at the file before printing.

Some of our visitors have poor eyesight. Will this sign be easy for them to read?

Three things help most: strong contrast between the words and the background, a plain bold font, and a size that matches how far away people will be. Our standard safety sign layouts use the high-contrast colour pairings laid down for safety signs. Mount the sign at eye height, where it is well lit and not catching glare, and keep the message short. Sizes for this sign go from 200 × 50 mm at the small end to 297 × 100 mm, 3 in all. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as 200 × 50 mm.

Could the Danger High Voltage No Admittance 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, Danger High Voltage No Admittance Sign leaves us after 6 working days on Saver.

What is the safest way to clean this sign?

Treat "Danger High Voltage No Admittance" gently: a soft cloth and soapy warm water, a rinse, then a dry. Strong cleaners, solvents and scourers can take the shine off the print or lift it, so leave them in the cupboard. Store spares flat, not leaning, to stop them bowing. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.
