Caution Pack of 6 Signs help facilities teams highlight general hazards across doors, fences, posts and work areas so staff and visitors slow down, look and act safely.
Caution Pack of 6 Signs are general hazard warning signs used where you need people to pause, look and proceed carefully. They help facilities, maintenance and site teams flag temporary or developing risks across doors, fences, posts and busy work areas.
Best Places to Fit Caution Pack of 6 Signs
You should install these Caution signs at eye level near the first point of risk: entrances, plant rooms, storage areas, temporary works, service corridors and site boundaries. Repeated placement helps people see the warning before they step into a changing hazard area.

| H 210 x W 148 mm | Doors, cupboards, close work points | Up to 2 metres |

| H 420 x W 297 mm | Fences, yards, wider approach routes | 5–10 metres |

Caution Pack of 6 Signs questions answered
What are Caution Pack of 6 Signs used for? They are used to warn people that a general hazard may be present and that they should slow down, look carefully and proceed with caution.
When should I choose a general caution sign instead of a specific hazard sign? Choose this sign when the risk changes, is temporary or needs a broad warning. Use a specific hazard sign where the danger is clearly defined, such as electricity, chemicals or forklifts.
Are these signs suitable for more than one location? Yes. The pack of 6 format is ideal when you need the same caution message on several doors, fences, posts, storage points or work areas.
Which material should I choose? Use self-adhesive vinyl for smooth indoor surfaces and rigid plastic where you need a more durable sign fixed to walls, posts, doors or fencing.
Do these caution signs include the recognised W001 symbol? Yes. The sign uses the W001 general warning symbol, with a black caution icon inside a yellow triangle for quick recognition.

Caution signs for general site awareness and work activity
For hazardous areas where visibility matters, use reflective caution hazardous area signs in yards, depots and lower-light workspaces. They help draw attention to risk without using a danger message.
Where workers are present in the area, compare with reflective caution men at work signage near temporary tasks and maintenance routes. This gives a more specific warning for people carrying out work.
For loading activity, choose caution loading bay warning signs at goods-in doors and service areas. They help pedestrians recognise where vehicle movement is likely.
If electric vehicles are operating nearby, add electric vehicle operating caution signs around shared routes and charging or operating areas. This supports clearer awareness of quieter moving vehicles.
For more general caution and danger options, view workplace site hazard warning signs and match the message to the risk level. This helps you avoid using one generic sign everywhere.
