Choosing a size

Warning signs must be placed far enough before the hazard that a driver can see, understand and slow down, which means larger signs and longer advance distances on faster roads. On slow estate roads, smaller signs placed clearly before the hazard are usually adequate. Keep vegetation trimmed so signs remain visible.

Standards and compliance

Warning road signs in South Africa follow the SA Road Traffic Signs Manual (SARTSM), using a red-bordered triangle. Only road authorities may place signs on public roads, so the signs we print are intended for private roads and property unless you have approval. The customer remains responsible for siting and legality; we print to the artwork or specification supplied or agreed.

FAQs

Can you print a children crossing sign for our school?
Yes, for use on school property or private roads. Signs on public roads outside the school need the road authority's involvement.
Is reflective material necessary?
For any road used after dark, reflective material helps drivers see the sign in their headlights.
Do you print warning signs for farm roads?
Yes. Animal crossing and narrow road warnings are common requests for farms and smallholdings.
Can you add a supplementary text plate?
Yes. A separate plate with a short message, such as a distance, can be printed to go under the main sign.
