Can I get a danger sign with my own wording?
Yes. Send the wording and any artwork through the quote form and we will send a proof before anything is made.
Are mounting holes or adhesive backing available?
Yes. Adhesive backing and mounting holes can be added. Signs are supplied as the sign only, with no frames or fixings.
Is there a minimum order?
No minimum quantity. Standard orders are dispatched in 3–5 business days.
