When Do You Need Safety Signs?

There are many occasions when you might need warning signs. You may need compliance signs that show you’re in compliance with certain rules and regulations. This may include OSHA safety sign and custom ANSI signs.

You may need safety signs to post outside of construction areas, or temporary hazards. Or you may need signs for more permanent things, such as emergency exit doors or electrical equipment.

In the end, your needs for safety signs may be as unique as your business itself. The experts at Captivating Signs can help you identify your hazard sign needs and create custom site signs that you can use to meet your safety obligations.

What Should You Consider for Safety Signs?

The design of the hazard sign is just as important as having it. When you’re working with our designers to create your sign, what should you consider?

Regulations

Your first consideration should always be the regulations you are bound by. OSHA and other government bodies may control the size, color, and other features of your sign.

Size

A sign needs to be large enough that it can be read from far enough away that the viewer can avoid the safety hazard in time, or be alerted to it while they are still at a safe distance.

Font

This is not the time for fancy fonts. Fonts on warning signs should be clear so that they can be understood.

Accessibility

Does your sign need braille, high contrast, or other elements of an accessible sign?

Weather

Signs that need to be posted outside should be weather-proof.
