Description
Compressed gas storage zones demand prominent, compliant hazard signage. This danger sign carries the red oval header and white text required by AS 1319 for immediate life-threatening hazards, alerting personnel to explosion, asphyxiation, and projectile risks. Install at all access points to storage rooms, cylinder cages, and manifold areas. Corflute suits temporary storage; polypropylene works for standard indoor facilities; Colorbond handles outdoor cylinder yards and salt-spray environments; vinyl offers flexibility for awkward mounting. Sizes from 225×300 mm to 600×900 mm. Reflective Class 1 and Class 2 options, lamination, and pre-drilled mounting holes available. Trade pricing and Australia-wide delivery.
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.

Frequently asked
How many signs do I need for a large gas storage facility?
Place a sign at each entrance to the storage area and at any secondary access points. For large facilities, consider additional signs at high-traffic zones or near specific cylinder types to reinforce the hazard.
Which material best withstands corrosive gas leaks?
Colorbond steel resists corrosion and chemical damage. If minor leaks are expected, lamination provides an extra protective layer on polypropylene or vinyl.
Can I add the specific gas type (e.g. 'Oxygen', 'Acetylene') to the message?
Custom text is available for bulk orders. Contact our team to discuss your storage inventory and we'll arrange a tailored design.
What's the installation height recommendation for storage areas?
Mount at eye level (1.5 m) on the door or entrance frame so it's visible before anyone enters. For high-stacked cylinder storage, consider a second sign at 2.0–2.2 m to catch overhead sightlines.
Do you stock these signs in bulk for large industrial sites?
Volume-pricing examples are 5 signs: 8% off, 10 signs: 15% off, 25 signs: 24% off, 50 signs: 32% off, 100 signs: 40% off. Savings increase gradually between these quantities. The total increases as you add more signs, while the average price per sign falls or stays the same. The configurator calculates the total for your selected quantity.
