Danger Slippery Surface A Board Floor Stands
Danger Slippery Surface A-Frame Floor Stand is a portable yellow hazard sign for warning staff, visitors and customers about wet, greasy or recently cleaned floors. You can place it quickly in walkways, entrances and service areas to reduce slip-risk confusion.
Where This Slippery Surface Floor Stand Should Be Placed
You should install this stand directly before the slippery floor, not after it. Use it at entrances, cleaning routes, wash-down areas, canteens, corridors, warehouses and public walkways where people need a clear warning before stepping onto a risky surface.
Practical Viewing Distance Guidance
For indoor corridors and shop floors, place the stand around 2–5 metres before the hazard. In wider entrances or busy warehouse routes, increase this to roughly 5–8 metres so people have time to slow down, step around or choose a safer route.
What Improves Once This Floor Stand Is in Use
Once positioned correctly, this stand helps people notice the hazard before they reach it. That early warning changes behaviour: pedestrians slow down, cleaners get a clearer protected working area and managers show visible action during temporary slip-risk conditions.

Practical Placement Advice for Slippery Surface Floor Stands
Danger Slippery Surface Floor Stand questions answered
When should I use a Danger Slippery Surface floor stand? Use it when a floor may cause slips because of water, cleaning, leaks, grease, mud or temporary surface contamination.
Is this better than a wall sign for wet floor hazards? Yes, for temporary floor risks. A freestanding sign sits near the hazard, so people see it while walking through the affected area.
Can cleaners move it during mopping or spill response? Yes. It is lightweight, folds flat and can be repositioned as the wet area changes or dries.
Is this suitable for permanent slippery flooring? It is best for temporary hazards. For constant slip-risk flooring, you should also consider permanent signs, surface treatment or anti-slip control measures.
Does the symbol help people understand the risk quickly? Yes. The W011 slipping person symbol gives a fast visual warning before someone reads the text, which helps in busy pedestrian areas.
