Description
Prevent machine guard removal with this AS 1319–compliant danger sign. The red header and white 'DANGER' text convey the severity of operating unguarded equipment. Platinum Signs manufactures these signs in corflute, polypropylene, Colorbond steel, and vinyl in four standard sizes (225×300 mm to 600×900 mm). Reflective Class 1 and 2 finishes suit factory floors and shift work. Lamination protects against oil splash and workshop wear. Trade customers benefit from volume discounts and Australia-wide delivery on standard orders.
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
Is this sign suitable for factory machinery?
Yes, specifically designed for industrial machinery where guards are critical. Laminated polypropylene or Colorbond withstands oil, coolant splash, and vibration.
Should I place one sign per machine or one per workstation?
Place a sign directly on or adjacent to each guarded machine. If multiple machines share a workstation, one sign per hazard point is typical; consult your safety officer.
How often should I inspect these signs for wear?
Inspect monthly in high-traffic areas. Replace if text becomes illegible, lamination peels, or reflective finish dulls significantly.
Can you supply signs for a factory retrofit across multiple sites?
Yes. Provide a list of machine types and site locations; we'll quote a consolidated order with bulk pricing and coordinate staged delivery to each facility.
What's the best way to attach signs to metal machinery frames?
Pre-drilled holes allow bolt or screw mounting. For temporary placement, adhesive-backed options are available; ensure the surface is clean and dry for best adhesion.
