Overview

If "Diversion Arrow Up" needs saying clearly, this is the sign, and diversion arrow up sign printing is what we do. It keeps walkers and vehicles on their own routes round the site, and you will find it in diversions, footpaths, haul roads and site accesses.

What the sign says

It reads "Diversion Arrow Up". Black lettering on white with a border keeps it simple, so the words do the work. The arrow on this one points up, so check it matches the way people need to go from where the sign will hang.

Putting it up

Wherever people choose a direction, facing the way they arrive. Walk or drive the route yourself and put a sign at every point where you had to think about which way to go.

Sizing your diversion arrow up sign printing comes down to 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. Anything read from a distance or a moving vehicle wants the larger sizes.

Boards for diversion arrow up sign printing

For diversion arrow up sign printing, pick the board to suit the spot:

  • 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

Correx for temporary jobs, Foamex for indoors, Dibond for anything staying outside for years.

A route that works on the site plan does not always work at the gate. Signs fill the gap.

The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 want traffic routes planned so people on foot and vehicles can both move safely, and direction signs are how everyone knows the plan.

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. Each diversion arrow up sign printing job is printed to order and sent out 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). 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: site directional signs and everything in site, traffic & hoarding signs. The guide to safety sign colours covers the choice in more depth.

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 diversion arrow up sign printing.

Which size of Diversion Arrow Up 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.

Has ISO 7010 got a symbol for "Diversion Arrow Up"?

No, ISO 7010 has no pictogram for this exact message. So the sign is words only, set in the usual plain black on white layout.

Where do I fix the Diversion Arrow Up sign?

For "Diversion Arrow Up", the usual spot is wherever people choose a direction: junctions, gates and turns, facing the people who need the instruction. Walk the route yourself and make sure it is seen from the direction people come.

Am I legally required to display "Diversion Arrow Up"?

The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 expect site traffic routes to be organised so people on foot and vehicles move safely. In practice that means clear direction signs. How many you need and where comes down to your own risk assessment.

Could the Diversion Arrow Up sign say something different, or carry our logo?

Yes, we can make it as a custom job. Tell us the text you want in place of "Diversion Arrow Up", or send your logo. Write to us from the Contact page and a person replies.

How soon will the Diversion Arrow Up sign reach me?

Standard takes 3 working days to make, or Express 2 working days. The courier then needs 1 to 3 working days, and the tracking link comes by email. Goods worth £100 or more travel free to a UK mainland address; below that, delivery is a flat £7.95 for the whole order.

Dibond, Correx or Foamex: which is right?

For a temporary job, Correx is the lowest cost and still light and waterproof. For a sign that stays outdoors long term, Dibond aluminium composite is the one. Keep Foamex for sheltered places.

How do I put the Diversion Arrow Up sign up?

The rigid boards arrive without holes. On smooth walls and doors, sign-fixing tape is quickest; otherwise drill the board and screw it to a wall or post, or cable tie it to a fence. The vinyl version is self-adhesive: press it onto a clean, dry, smooth surface.

Asked by buyers

How much will the Diversion Arrow Up Sign set me back?

£27.52 is where the Diversion Arrow Up Sign starts, set up as A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) and 3.5mm Correx on the Saver speed. Change the size, material, extras, quantity or speed and the total on the page moves straight away. The price you see is the price you pay at checkout, with delivery the only thing that can be added. Delivery anywhere on the UK mainland is £7.95 an order, and it costs nothing once the goods come to £100 or more after any discount code (design and artwork fees are not counted).

Is delivery ever free?

It is £7.95 for the whole order, not per item, and free once the goods reach £100 after any discount code; design or artwork charges are left out of that £100. On its own the opening price of £27.52 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero. A mainland Highlands postcode puts a single £10 on the order. Northern Ireland has its delivery priced before you pay, and so do the Channel Islands, the Scottish islands, Scilly, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On this page, Diversion Arrow Up Sign starts from £27.52.

If I buy the Diversion Arrow Up Sign today, when will it leave you?

As the page first opens, the speeds for the Diversion Arrow Up Sign are Express 2 working days, Standard 3 and Saver 5, counting Monday to Friday and skipping bank holidays. The count begins once we have your order and a file ready to print. A bigger size or a different material can move it by a day either way; each speed shows its own days as you choose. Tracking arrives by email on the day it ships, and the courier usually takes one to three working days from there.

Which sizes can the Diversion Arrow Up Sign be printed in?

Smallest: A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm), from £27.52. Biggest: A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), from £54.24. One more is listed in between, and every figure is for the cheapest options. Not sure which? Mark the space out with tape or string first and stand back to look. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all. For reference, Diversion Arrow Up Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).

How big does our Diversion Arrow Up Sign have to be to read across a room or yard?

Stand where someone first needs to read "Diversion Arrow Up" and pace out the gap to where it will hang. Then match that number: up to 12 m for A3 landscape, 17 m for A2 landscape or 24 m for A1 landscape. Dim corners or people on the move call for one size bigger. Those distances follow the ISO 3864-1 distance-factor method (25 mm of height per metre) and sit alongside your risk assessment, not in place of it. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all.

What will people understand when they see a Diversion Arrow Up Sign?

Its job is to put a plain written instruction in front of people: "Diversion Arrow Up" is laid out as a text sign. There is no ISO 7010 pictogram for "Diversion Arrow Up", so the words alone carry the meaning. You will find it useful at a building site, an event field or a school fete. Word for word, this sign says "Diversion Arrow Up".

Could you price an A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) sign for me?

From £36.41, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3.5mm Correx at £36.41, 3mm Foamex at £42.91 and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £61.17. Add £7.95 for UK mainland delivery, or nothing at all once the goods reach £100. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On this page, Diversion Arrow Up Sign starts from £27.52.

Could the total go up after I reach the checkout?

The only thing that can join the goods price is delivery; the price you see is the price you pay at checkout. Delivery anywhere on the UK mainland is £7.95 an order, and it costs nothing once the goods come to £100 or more after any discount code (design and artwork fees are not counted). If you pick a paid design option, it sits in the basket as a separate line with its own fee, so every penny is listed before you pay. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. For reference, Diversion Arrow Up Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).

And the largest sign, A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm): how much is that one?

From £54.24, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3.5mm Correx at £54.24, 3mm Foamex at £63.13 and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £88.40. Add £7.95 for UK mainland delivery, or nothing at all once the goods reach £100. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves.

On its opening option, Diversion Arrow Up Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

We are kitting out a hall with several different signs. Can they all go in one order?

Yes. Put each sign in the basket with whichever size and board suits its spot, then pay once at checkout. One delivery charge covers the whole order, and it drops to nothing when the goods reach £100 after any discount code. Picking the same board for every sign gives the set a matching look; "Diversion Arrow Up" comes in A3 landscape, A2 landscape and A1 landscape. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52.

Can a private person buy a single sign?

Yes. One is enough, and you do not need a business name or an account to check out. The opening price is £27.52, and any bank card will do. On its own the opening price of £27.52 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero. A person still checks your file before it is printed, just as for a big order. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On this page, Diversion Arrow Up Sign starts from £27.52.

Is there a quicker turnaround for this sign?

Work back from the day you need it. Express takes 2 working days to get the Diversion Arrow Up Sign out, against 5 on Saver, and costs £36.71 on the opening option rather than £27.52. Add up to three working days for the courier, plus any time you need to finish the file. Cutting it fine? Put your date in the question box before you order.

I live in the Scottish Highlands. Will the Diversion Arrow Up Sign cost more to send?

The whole UK is covered. Outside it, sadly, we cannot deliver. Mainland addresses in the Highlands pay one extra £10 on the order, even when delivery would otherwise be free. For Northern Ireland, and for the Channel Islands, the Scottish islands, Scilly, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man, we tell you the delivery cost before you pay, so message us your postcode on the Contact page or our Get a quote page. Choose Saver and this sign leaves us after 5 working days; Express brings that down to 2. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On this page, Diversion Arrow Up Sign starts from £27.52.

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

Roughly 9,933 pixels across and 7,016 down for an A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) design, which is 300 dpi. Things read at arm's length need that 300 dpi at full size to stay crisp. Text and logos are safest as vector art, which never goes fuzzy. Pictures saved from a website or social media are nearly always too small, and our file check will point out any that could print blurred. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm). Material choices for Diversion Arrow Up Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Will anyone look at my file before it is printed?

Every file gets a human check for size, bleed and resolution, and we contact you about any problem before printing. Nobody can know your details better than you, so double-check names, numbers and dates: we print what is supplied, and work begins once the order and file are confirmed. 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 its opening option, Diversion Arrow Up Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Can the wording on a Diversion Arrow Up Sign be changed, or our logo added?

A school can add its crest to "Diversion Arrow Up", a club its badge, a shop its name. Choose typesetting (£15) if you know the words, or design from your brief (£35) if you would like us to lay it out; each comes with one first draft and two rounds of changes. Have your own finished file? Upload it free and one of our team will look it over. Keep the symbol and safety colours unchanged so the sign still reads the right way. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

What thickness is the Diversion Arrow Up Sign, and does it feel sturdy?

For a rigid sign, the board sets the thickness: Correx at 3.5 mm, Foamex at 3 mm and Dibond at 3 mm. Foamex is a lightweight PVC foam board. Dibond has aluminium on both faces around a plastic middle, so it stays flat and firm but is easy to fix. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. On its opening option, Diversion Arrow Up Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

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

Two good companions for it are Diversion Arrow Left Sign and Diversion Arrow Right Sign. Each has a page of its own with every size, material and a live price, and picking one material for all of them makes the wall look like a matching set. Put the lot in a single basket and you pay one delivery charge, which drops to nothing when the goods reach £100. 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 Diversion Arrow Up Sign in the evening?

Only if a light falls on it. The Correx, Foamex and Dibond versions are printed without any reflective or glow-in-the-dark layer. So for a church car park, a school path or a yard used on winter evenings, put it beneath a lamp that is already there, or add a light. If your risk assessment says a sign has to reflect or glow, buy that one from a firm that makes them. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. Material choices for Diversion Arrow Up Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Will a Diversion Arrow Up Sign cope with rain and wind outdoors?

"Diversion Arrow Up" can go outside as long as you match the material to the job. For a sign that stays out for years, Dibond is the one to choose. Correx is waterproof and happy outdoors for shorter spells. Foamex will manage a sheltered spot, such as a porch or under a canopy, but it is really an indoor board. Strong sun slowly fades any print, so glance at outdoor signs every so often and swap any that have become hard to read. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

What is the easiest way to put up a Diversion Arrow Up Sign?

It depends what "Diversion Arrow Up" is going on. Brick or plaster: screws through holes near the corners, washers under the heads, and a light hand (Foamex especially). Painted doors and smooth walls inside: foam tape or sticky pads, no drilling needed. Fences and railings: cable ties, or a post, for the Correx board. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

Which material is cheapest for the Diversion Arrow Up 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. Material choices for Diversion Arrow Up Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Yes. Treat it as a fresh order of the same item with the same settings, and attach the file you used last time.

Or pick typesetting for £15 and we lay out your words and logo for you, with a first draft and two rounds of changes.

Can the Diversion Arrow Up Sign carry wording in two languages, for example English and Welsh?

Does a Diversion Arrow Up Sign come upright or wide?

Landscape. "Diversion Arrow Up" is offered in A3 landscape, A2 landscape and A1 landscape. That shape is made for wide spaces, such as a fence panel, the wall above a door or a long corridor. If your spot needs the opposite, pick one of the paid design options and we re-lay it to suit. Sizes for this sign go from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at the small end to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), 3 in all.

What if A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) is still too small for the Diversion Arrow Up Sign?

The size list tops out at A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), starting at £54.24. Anything bigger is priced on request: send the size, the material and how many through our quote form. A board over A0 counts as oversize for delivery, which adds £15 to the order 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. Material choices for Diversion Arrow Up Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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

It depends on the board. Foamex is foamed plastic, and a large, thin sheet in strong sun can curve, most of all when it is held only at the corners. Dibond sandwiches a core between aluminium skins and stays flat, which is why people choose it for signs that live outdoors for years. If you go with Foamex, fix it flat to a wall along its length or pick a thicker option. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Before delivery, this sign costs from £27.52. Material choices for Diversion Arrow Up Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Could the Diversion Arrow Up Sign go on a door, say an office or classroom door?

It can, held on with double-sided foam tape or a couple of screws. On a flat door, the 3mm Foamex board with foam tape on the back is a good alternative. Aim for eye height, either beside the door or on the side people push, so an open door does not hide it. Fire doors are different: ask the person responsible for the building before you drill into one. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Material choices for Diversion Arrow Up Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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

Foamex and Correx cut cleanly with a sharp craft knife run along a metal rule: score it a few times, then cut or snap along the line. Dibond is aluminium on both faces, so use a fine-tooth saw and take it slowly. Holes for screws or ties can be made with a normal drill bit at low speed; keep each hole 10 mm or more in from the edge. Trimming eats into the bleed area, so leave room in the design if you plan to trim anything off. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 3mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Material choices for Diversion Arrow Up Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
