Description
Install a Danger Moving Parts sign wherever machinery, conveyors, or rotating equipment pose an immediate risk of injury or death. Designed to AS 1319 specifications, the red header and white text command attention before anyone enters the hazard zone. Select from corflute, polypropylene, Colorbond steel, or vinyl in sizes from 225×300 mm to 600×900 mm. Lamination extends life in high-traffic areas; reflective options ensure visibility in low-light factory floors or shift work environments. Trade customers enjoy volume pricing, pre-drilled holes for quick installation, and Australia-wide stock delivery. Platinum Signs holds standard configurations in store, so you can order and receive within days.
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
Where exactly should I position a moving parts danger sign?
Mount at eye level (approximately 1.5 m) on or immediately adjacent to the machinery—before any guard or access point. Use multiple signs if the machine has several entry points or if sightlines are obstructed.
Should I use reflective coating on a factory floor?
Reflective grades provide different visibility performance. Choose the grade required by the project specification and site conditions, and confirm any road, traffic or high-risk requirement with the relevant authority before ordering.
How durable is polypropylene versus Colorbond for a busy workshop?
Polypropylene resists moisture and is cost-effective for moderate-wear areas; Colorbond steel is harder to damage, handles impact better, and lasts longer in high-traffic or outdoor zones.
Can I order pre-drilled signs ready to mount?
Yes. Four-corner pre-drilled holes are an optional extra with a base surcharge of $3.00 inc GST per sign for the listed configurations, before any applicable volume discount. Select the option to update the configured total before adding to cart.
Do you offer lamination to protect printed text over time?
Yes—lamination adds a protective layer that resists fading, scratching, and moisture, extending the sign's legibility and appearance by several years.
