Overview

If "Caution Lorries Turning" needs saying clearly, this is the sign, and caution lorries turning sign printing is what we do. It tells people on foot that vehicles are moving and turning close by, and you will find it in site access roads, depots, loading bays and yards.

Where to fix it

Where walkers and vehicles cross, readable from both sides. Put signs where people on foot and vehicles meet, and at blind corners.

The right size for caution lorries turning sign printing depends on the reading distance. Rule of thumb from ISO 3864-1: each 25 mm on the short side of the sign gives roughly a metre of reading distance. That makes A3 to about 12 m, A2 to about 17 m and A1 to about 24 m. Long corridors, yards and car parks need the bigger sizes.

The message

It reads "Caution Lorries Turning". Yellow triangle, black border: the shape everyone reads as "watch out". The CAUTION heading tells people to watch out; the line beneath says for what.

Caution lorries turning sign printing: choosing the board

There is a board for each kind of spot in our caution lorries turning sign printing range:

  • 3.5mm Correx, the fluted plastic board: light, waterproof and cheap to replace, which is why it is the site-sign favourite
  • 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

Short job, Correx. Indoors, Foamex. Long job outdoors, Dibond.

Keep routes for people and vehicles apart wherever the site allows it.

Keep people on foot and vehicles apart where you can, and warn both where you cannot: that is the line taken by the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 and HSE guidance on workplace transport.

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
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 caution lorries turning sign printing.

Which size of Caution Lorries Turning 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.

Is there a standard pictogram that says "Caution Lorries Turning"?

ISO 7010 has nothing specific to this message, so the sign uses the general industrial vehicles warning symbol, W014, alongside the text.

Where should the "Caution Lorries Turning" message go so people act on it?

The right place is where people on foot and vehicles share the same space, readable from both a cab and the walkway. Fix it where it will not be hidden by doors, deliveries or vehicles.

Am I legally required to display "Caution Lorries Turning"?

The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 and HSE guidance on workplace transport expect people on foot and vehicles to be kept apart where possible. Where they do meet, people should be warned. Your risk assessment is what decides the exact positions.

Will the Caution Lorries Turning sign survive outdoors?

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

Why is the Caution Lorries Turning sign in these colours?

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

Asked by buyers

How cheaply can I get hold of the Caution Lorries Turning Sign?

Picked the way the page first loads, with A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) and 3.5mm Correx, the Caution Lorries Turning Sign comes to £27.52. 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 £27.52 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

Which turnaround speeds can I choose for the Caution Lorries Turning Sign?

Allow 5 working days on Saver, 3 on Standard or 2 on Express before the Caution Lorries Turning 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 Caution Lorries Turning 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. 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, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

Dibond, Foamex or Correx: which should we pick for a Caution Lorries Turning Sign?

Decide by where "Caution Lorries Turning" 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. Only needed outside for a few weeks, say on a fence? Go for 3.5mm Correx, which weighs little and shrugs off rain.

Which size of the Caution Lorries Turning Sign can people read from further away?

Rough reading distances for "Caution Lorries Turning": about 12 m for A3 landscape, 17 m for A2 landscape or 24 m for A1 landscape. 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 A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all.

Where is the best spot for a Caution Lorries Turning Sign?

Picture someone arriving at a yard, a farm or a building job where vans and people share the route who needs to see "Caution Lorries Turning". Fix it facing oncoming traffic wherever vehicles and people use the same route. 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

What message is a Caution Lorries Turning Sign giving?

Start with the symbol on "Caution Lorries Turning". 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 yard, a farm or a building job where vans and people share the route.

How much for the biggest size, A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm)?

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. 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 Caution Lorries Turning Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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 "Caution Lorries Turning" the sizes are A3 landscape, A2 landscape and A1 landscape. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52.

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 Caution Lorries Turning Sign begin at £27.52, 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 £27.52 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

How much does an A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) sign cost?

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. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. For reference, Caution Lorries Turning Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 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. 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 its opening option, Caution Lorries Turning Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Our event is close. Can the Caution Lorries Turning Sign be rushed?

Yes. Choose Express and the Caution Lorries Turning Sign can be on the way in 2 working days on the opening option, for £36.71, where Saver is £27.52 and takes 5 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 Caution Lorries Turning Sign be changed, or our logo added?

Yes. To reword "Caution Lorries Turning" 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

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 landscape (841 × 594 mm) layout wants about 9,933 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. On this page, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

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 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, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

Can I send a Word or Canva file for the Caution Lorries Turning Sign?

Word, PowerPoint and Canva are a fair place to start, but export a high quality PDF from them before uploading. Our first choice is always a PDF at the ordered size with fonts embedded or outlined, followed by AI, EPS or SVG, then high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF. You can add three files, each up to 25 MB, on this page, or upload them after ordering from the email we send. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. 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, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

What thickness is the Caution Lorries Turning Sign, and does it feel sturdy?

That depends on the board you tick: Correx at 3.5 mm, Foamex at 3 mm and Dibond at 3 mm. 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Material choices for Caution Lorries Turning Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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: Beware Pedestrians Sign and Caution Pedestrians 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

It gets dark early in winter. Can people still read the Caution Lorries Turning Sign in the evening?

Not in pitch darkness. Pick Correx, Foamex or Dibond 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On its opening option, Caution Lorries Turning Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Will a Caution Lorries Turning Sign cope with rain and wind outdoors?

Rain is rarely the problem for "Caution Lorries Turning"; 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. Correx is waterproof and suits temporary outdoor use. Foamex copes with a covered spot but prefers life indoors. 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 Caution Lorries Turning Sign?

To mount "Caution Lorries Turning" 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. The Correx version is simplest cable tied to a fence or fixed to a post. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

Does the material change the price of the Caution Lorries Turning 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. On this page, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

Do we legally have to display a Caution Lorries Turning Sign?

Your risk assessment answers that one for "Caution Lorries Turning". 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.

Can I pay for the Caution Lorries Turning Sign by card as a guest?

Yes. Guest checkout is fine, and any debit or credit card works. Stripe processes the payment for us, which keeps your card number off our system entirely. We begin making this sign once the payment has cleared and the artwork is confirmed. Large or out of the ordinary jobs can be quoted first from the Get a quote page. 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, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

Who looks after me once I have bought the Caution Lorries Turning Sign?

FatPrint does, from start to finish. We take your order and payment, a person on our team checks your file, and the Caution Lorries Turning 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.

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

Keep the order confirmation email we send: it itemises the purchase and the payment, and works as a plain receipt for your records. The total at checkout for this sign is the goods price on the page plus delivery, so the email matches what left the account. Need something more formal for an audit or a grant claim? Message us from the Contact page with your order number. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for 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. On this page, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

Do I pay delivery on each item in my basket?

No. One delivery charge covers the whole basket, so adding the Caution Lorries Turning 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.

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. 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, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

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. Answered questions may be shown on the page for other buyers, so leave personal details out of it. Private questions can go through the Contact page, and anything the options here cannot price can go through the Get a quote page. 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 Caution Lorries Turning Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. For reference, Caution Lorries Turning Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).

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 5 working days; Express brings that down to 2. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On this page, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

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

Yes. You do not need any print knowledge to order the Caution Lorries Turning 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.

Can the Caution Lorries Turning Sign carry wording in two languages, for example English and Welsh?

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. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm). Material choices for Caution Lorries Turning Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm). For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Material choices for Caution Lorries Turning Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Does a Caution Lorries Turning Sign come upright or wide?

"Caution Lorries Turning" is laid out in landscape format, available as A3 landscape, A2 landscape and A1 landscape. Wide layouts sit well on fences, over doorways and along corridors. Need it turned the other way? Choose one of the design options and we will rearrange it for 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.

What if A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) is still too small for the Caution Lorries Turning 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 landscape (841 × 594 mm), and that size costs £54.24 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 A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. On this page, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. On this page, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

Could the Caution Lorries Turning 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. Fix it with double-sided foam tape or screws. 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. On this page, Caution Lorries Turning Sign starts from £27.52.

What is the safest way to clean this sign?

Treat "Caution Lorries Turning" 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.
