Clear Warnings


Easily understood - All of the Hazard Warning Signs in our range use the widely recognised hazard triangle and also feature eye-catching bold text to explain the nature of the hazard. Most commonly, the image inside the triangle is the standard exclamation mark symbol; an instantly recognisable sign of potential danger. We also offer a large amount of danger signs.

Alternative images, such as those found on our ‘Mind Your Step’ Construction Signs, ‘Danger Deep Water’ Construction Signs and ‘Warning Fragile Roof’ Construction Signs can provide more information on the specific hazard involved.

You can also opt for a multi-message sign that provides further instructions or prohibitions, such as our Flammable/No Smoking/No Naked Lights Stanchion Sign to simultaneous warn of dangers and instruct those nearby of the correct safety procedures to follow.

Inform and Protect


Some people believe the purpose of these signs is to induce fear, but this is incorrect. The real reason behind posting them is to educate and inform of the dangers present on a construction site, so everyone on it is better equipped to adapt to the environment and take steps to prevent accidents from happening.

For example, if a sign tells workers that a platform may collapse if stepped upon, they will know better than to try to do so. Alternatively, if there are sharp objects on the floor, a construction site hazard warning sign can be used to notify them of this, so they can either avoid the area completely or wear Protective Footwear.

It's also not uncommon to for dangerous chemicals, such as explosive gases or inflammable materials, to be present on construction sites. Even something as trivial as leaving equipment on the premises can be a potential source of danger, and Construction Site Hazard Warning Signs serve to remind and enforce safety working practices.

Health and Safety Legislation


In addition to keeping those on your site safe, displaying these signs is a good idea to protect yourself from litigation and ensure you comply with Health & Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996. For example, if the floor is wet, people walking across that area may slip and injure themselves and demand financial compensation for any injuries sustained.

These types of sign are best used in combination with other signs, such as Construction Site Information Signs. By displaying both types of signs, you're covering all bases. One type of sign explicitly tells people what kind of activities are discouraged while on a construction site, the other tells you what kind of dangers you can expect.

Materials and Fixings


Our signs are built to last and are made from durable materials that adhere to the latest industry standards and regulations. Our vast selection of signs covers the most common type of dangers on a typical construction site. If for any reason you determine none of the products is suitable for your needs, try out our custom sign service and design your own signs down to the very last detail.

Also, check out our Sign Fixings to see what options are available to make sure your signs will stay securely in place no matter where you are planning to display them.

Best Practice on Using Warning Signs for Construction Site Safety


There are situations and locations where your construction site warning signs may need to contain multiple messages and symbols. This is often required at site entrances, for example, to provide a list of risks and the proper behaviours to manage risks.

To issue clear instructions on a range of site safety measures, we offer standard or bespoke multi-warning signs, such as ones that remind staff and visitors that PPE must be worn, that only authorised access is permitted, and that non-staff must report to reception.

In other specific locations, single-message construction hazard signs may be more appropriate to have an immediate impact.

After all, hazard warning signs in construction are designed to prevent serious injuries and indeed fatalities where excavating, building and construction projects are taking place. So, a high-vis Danger of Death sign or Caution Falling Debris sign may be a quick and vital reminder of the risks at those particular spots.

Well-Engineered Construction Site Hazard Warning Signs


It is such an important aspect of health and safety compliance and duty of care that sourcing cheap construction site warning signs can be less important than finding durable and robust versions that are well made, in weatherproof materials.

Our value-for-money safety signage can withstand not only the test of time and the environment, but also the daily challenges of a busy construction environment.

However, finding a reliable supplier of cost-effective construction site hazard signs means that you can replace any damaged products quickly, and hold substantial stocks of the different health and safety signs needed in heavy-duty environments.

It is recommended that your stock of warning signs for construction site hazards includes a variety of sizes and installation options. For example, some of our products are engineered to be erected on overhead structures, and others are free-standing hazard alert signs.

Versatile Hazard Warning Signs


Some of the products from our compliant hazard signage can be used for other purposes, not just warning signs on construction sites. For instance, on completion of a major building project, signage to support traffic management can be reused as part of your health and safety measures in a warehouse. Or, a Warning Pedestrians Have Priority sign can be reutilised in the new structure’s parking area.

Facility managers and maintenance contractors can also use some of our high-quality warning signs for construction site safety for risk management during essential repair projects. For instance, Caution Men at Work signs can be handy to hold in stock for when your maintenance team are working on machinery and structural aspects of your building.
