Frequently asked
What standard applies to railway crossing signs?
The appropriate safety-sign category, wording, placement and supporting controls depend on the product purpose, site risk and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with your WHS adviser or regulator; a sign alone does not discharge WHS duties.
Is the reflective sheeting essential?
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 are these signs mounted at crossings?
They're usually mounted on posts or gantries flanking the crossing. We provide technical guidance; installation is typically handled by rail contractors.
What's the typical lifespan of this sign?
Aluminium signs last 10–15 years with minimal maintenance. Reflective coating may require replacement after 7–10 years depending on exposure.
Can I order in bulk for multiple crossings?
