Overview
The short answer, then the detail.
A Caution Exit Only sign guides drivers and visitors to the right entrance or exit. Choose 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite and self-adhesive vinyl in sizes from 297 × 100 mm to 594 × 200 mm; the largest reads at about 8 metres. UK mainland delivery £7.95, free over £99; no VAT added.
Use this sign where you need to say "Caution Exit Only" clearly. It guides drivers and visitors to the right entrance or exit, and is commonly fitted in car parks, business parks, hospitals and depots. The design uses a yellow warning triangle with black text.
The CAUTION header flags a hazard people need to look out for; the text underneath says exactly what it is.
The legal background: on private land, car park signs set the terms of use. If you use a parking operator, check their signage rules as well.
Caution Exit Only Sign: sizes and materials
Materials: 3mm Foamex (rigid PVC foam board), light and easy to fix indoors or for short-term outdoor use, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, rigid and weatherproof for long-term outdoor use and self-adhesive vinyl for smooth walls, doors, glass and equipment. For signs that stay outdoors for a long time, Dibond is the most durable choice.
Sizes and viewing distance: 297 × 100 mm (reads at about 4 m); 420 × 150 mm (reads at about 6 m); 594 × 200 mm (reads at about 8 m). As a guide we allow about 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25mm of sign height, based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1, so choose a bigger size for long corridors, yards and car parks.
Where to put it: At junctions and entrances, readable from a moving vehicle.

Which size do I need?
A safety sign must be large enough to read from where people will see it. Our conservative guide, based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1, is about 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25 mm of sign height (the shorter side). Use it with your own risk assessment.
| Size | Readable from up to about |
|---|---|
| 297 × 100 mm | 4 m |
| 420 × 150 mm | 6 m |
| 594 × 200 mm | 8 m |
Well lit or internally lit signs can be read from further away; dim areas need larger signs.

Frequently asked questions
About caution exit only sign.
What size Caution Exit Only sign do I need?
Pick the size by how far away people will read it. 297 × 100 mm reads at about 4 m, 420 × 150 mm reads at about 6 m, 594 × 200 mm reads at about 8 m. These distances are a conservative guide for normal lighting.
Is there an ISO 7010 symbol for "Caution Exit Only"?
No ISO 7010 symbol covers this exact message, so the sign pairs the text with the ISO 7010 W001 general warning sign.
Where should the Caution Exit Only sign go?
At junctions and entrances, readable from a moving vehicle. Make sure it is not hidden by doors, stock or vehicles.
Is a Caution Exit Only sign a legal requirement?
On private land, car park signs set the terms of use. If you use a parking operator, check their signage rules as well. Your own risk assessment decides where signs are needed.
Which material should I choose?
For a sign that stays up for months or years outdoors, choose Dibond aluminium composite. Correx is light, waterproof and the lowest cost for temporary use. Foamex suits sheltered spots.
How do I fix it?
Rigid boards are supplied undrilled. Fix them with sign-mounting tape, screws through holes you drill, or cable ties on fencing. Vinyl is self-adhesive and goes onto clean, smooth, dry surfaces.

The Caution Exit Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from 297 × 100 mm at £4.49 up to 594 × 200 mm at £6.65. In between: 420 × 150 mm. Prices are the lowest option for each size. Not sure which fits? Measure the space and ask a question on this page, or call 0161 315 1151.
How far away can the Caution Exit Only Sign be read?
Work back from how far away people will be when they need to read it. Using our guide of about 1 m of viewing distance for every 25 mm of sign height: 297 × 100 mm reads from about 4 m, 420 × 150 mm reads from about 6 m and 594 × 200 mm reads from about 8 m. In poor light, or where people are moving quickly, go a size up. The guide is based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1; use it with your own risk assessment.
I do not have artwork. Can you design it for me?
The Artwork choice on this page offers: "I will upload print-ready artwork" (free), "Add my text and logo to a clean layout (typesetting)" (£15), "Design it for me from my brief" (£35), "Redraw or vectorise my logo from a low-res file" (£50) and "Design a new logo for me" (£100). Design fees are fixed, show as their own line in the basket and cover the whole quantity of that item. Typesetting includes 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes; design from your brief includes 1 design and 2 rounds of changes. The Caution Exit Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from 297 × 100 mm to 594 × 200 mm.
How much does the Caution Exit Only Sign cost?
The Caution Exit Only Sign starts from £4.49 with size 297 × 100 mm and material self-adhesive vinyl on the Saver turnaround. The price in the calculator changes live as you pick the size, material, finishing, quantity and turnaround, so you see the final price before you add to basket. No VAT is added because we are not VAT registered. Delivery is added at checkout: UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it).
How long does the Caution Exit Only Sign take to make?
On the option the calculator opens on, Saver is ready to dispatch in 6 working days, Standard in 4 and Express in 2. These are working days to dispatch, counted from when your order and artwork are confirmed, and other sizes or materials can take a day more or less: the calculator shows the exact days next to each turnaround. Courier delivery usually takes 1 to 3 working days after dispatch, and we email the tracking details when the parcel leaves us. The Caution Exit Only Sign starts at £4.49 before delivery.
Do you charge for delivery?
UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it), so one sign at £4.49 on its own pays £7.95, and the charge disappears once your basket reaches £99. Mainland Scottish Highlands postcodes add £10 once per order. Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight are quoted before you order.
What type of sign is the Caution Exit Only Sign?
"Caution Exit Only" is a warning sign: a yellow triangle with a black border, warning of a hazard. It carries the ISO 7010 W001 symbol (general warning sign), so people understand it even if they do not read English. The colours and shapes follow the scheme set out in the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996.
How thick is the Caution Exit Only Sign?
The board options are 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, so the board version is 3 mm thick. The self-adhesive vinyl version is a thin film that sits flat on the surface. Dibond is two thin aluminium skins with a plastic core, so it is rigid but still easy to fix. Foamex is a light foamed PVC board.
Can I get the Caution Exit Only Sign as a sticker?
Yes. Choose self-adhesive vinyl in the material options and the sign arrives as a sticker to peel and apply. It suits doors, glass, machines, cupboards and smooth painted walls, where a board would be awkward to fix. Clean and dry the surface first and smooth it on from the middle outwards. For rough or dusty surfaces, choose a board instead.
Will the Caution Exit Only Sign show up at night?
Only where there is light on it. We print on 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite and self-adhesive vinyl, which are not reflective or glow in the dark. For car parks, yards and routes used after dark, position signs under existing lighting, or light them. Where your risk assessment calls for reflective or photoluminescent signs, you will need a specialist supplier.
Can the Caution Exit Only Sign be used outside?
Yes, in the right material. Dibond is the best choice for signs that stay outside long term. Foamex copes with sheltered outdoor spots but is happiest indoors. All printed signs fade slowly in strong sun over time; check them as part of your routine and replace any that are hard to read. The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed on 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite and self-adhesive vinyl.
How do I fix the Caution Exit Only Sign to a wall or fence?
Foamex and Dibond boards can be screwed to a wall through holes drilled near the corners; use washers and do not overtighten, especially on Foamex. On smooth indoor walls and doors, double-sided foam tape or adhesive pads avoid drilling. On fences, drill the board and cable tie it through the holes. The vinyl version simply peels and sticks to a clean, dry, smooth surface. The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed on 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite and self-adhesive vinyl.
What resolution does my artwork need for this sign?
For items read close up, aim for 300 dpi at the finished size. At 300 dpi a 594 × 200 mm design needs about 7,016 × 2,362 pixels. Logos and text are best as vector artwork, which stays sharp at any size. Photos taken from websites or social media are usually far too small; our file check flags images that may print soft.
Do you check my file before printing?
Yes. A person from our team checks every uploaded file for size, bleed and resolution, and tells you if something needs fixing before anything is made. We print what you supply, so check spelling, phone numbers and dates yourself too. Production starts once your order and artwork are confirmed. For the Caution Exit Only Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example 297 × 100 mm.
What happens if my file is not good enough to print?
Our file check catches the usual problems: the wrong size, no bleed, low resolution images and text too close to the edge. We tell you what needs fixing before anything is printed, and you can send a new file. If you would rather we sort it, the typesetting option (£15, 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes) sets your text and logo on a clean layout. The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed on 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite and self-adhesive vinyl.
What file should I upload?
A PDF at the finished size is best, with fonts embedded or converted to outlines. We also take AI, EPS and SVG, and high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF files. Word, PowerPoint and Canva files are fine as a starting point, but export a full-quality PDF if you can. You can upload up to 3 files of 25 MB each on the product page, or upload later: we email you after you order. For the Caution Exit Only Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example 297 × 100 mm.
Can I order now and send my artwork later?
Yes. You can upload your file on the product page, or place the order and upload later: we email you after you order. Your designer can send the file to us by email or WhatsApp with your order number, so it does not have to come through you. The turnaround clock starts once your order and artwork are confirmed, so send the file early if you have a deadline. The Caution Exit Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from 297 × 100 mm to 594 × 200 mm.
Can I change the wording or add my logo to the Caution Exit Only Sign?
Yes. Choose "Add my text and logo to a clean layout" (£15, 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes) or "Design it for me from my brief" (£35) in the Artwork options and tell us what you need. You can also upload your own print-ready file at no charge, and a person checks it before printing. Keep safety symbols and colours as they are: changing them can make the sign harder to understand. For the Caution Exit Only Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example 297 × 100 mm.
Will the price change at checkout?
Only delivery is added. The goods price you see in the calculator is final, with no VAT added. UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it). Any artwork or design fee you choose shows as its own line in the basket, so you can see exactly what you are paying for. The Caution Exit Only Sign starts at £4.49 before delivery.
How do I order several of this sign?
The price shown is for one sign in the size and material you pick. Set the quantity box next to Add to basket and the basket multiplies it. If you need several different sizes or materials, add each one to the basket separately. One artwork fee covers the whole quantity of a line, and "Same artwork as another item in my basket" adds no second fee. For large runs, ask for a quote. The Caution Exit Only Sign starts at £4.49 before delivery.
Can I pay for express production on the Caution Exit Only Sign?
Yes. Express makes this sign ready to dispatch in 2 working days on the opening option, priced at £5.98 against £4.49 on Saver (6 days). To plan back from a date, add 1 to 3 working days for the courier after dispatch and allow for artwork: production starts once your order and artwork are confirmed. If the date is very tight, call 0161 315 1151 before you order.
Do you deliver Caution Exit Only Sign to the Scottish Highlands?
Yes, with a difference in price. Mainland Scottish Highlands postcodes, for example around Inverness, Fort William, Oban and Thurso, pay the mainland rate plus £10 once per order, even when the order qualifies for free delivery. Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight are quoted before you order: use Get a quote or call 0161 315 1151. We do not deliver outside the UK. On the opening option, the Caution Exit Only Sign is ready to dispatch in 6 working days on Saver or 2 on Express.
How do the material prices compare on the Caution Exit Only Sign?
At 297 × 100 mm: 3mm Foamex £26.47, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite £39.19 and self-adhesive vinyl £4.49. The gap stays similar on bigger sizes, which the Prices by size table on this page shows in full. Choose on where the sign goes rather than price alone: the cheapest material is not always the one that lasts in that spot.
What other signs go with the Caution Exit Only Sign?
Signs that are often needed alongside it include Cycle Crossing Ahead Sign, Cycle Parking Arrow Sign, Cycle Parking Left Arrow Sign and Cycle Parking Right Arrow Sign. Each has its own page with sizes, materials and live prices, and ordering them in the same material keeps a set looking consistent. Add them to one basket: delivery is charged once, and it is free once the goods total reaches £99. The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed on 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite and self-adhesive vinyl.
Can I get the Caution Exit Only Sign bigger than 594 × 200 mm?
The largest listed size is 594 × 200 mm, from £6.65. For a bigger sign, use Get a quote with the size, material and quantity, and we will price it. Boards larger than A0 travel as oversize items, which adds £15 once per order.
Is the Caution Exit Only Sign portrait or landscape?
This design is landscape, in 297 × 100 mm, 420 × 150 mm and 594 × 200 mm. Landscape suits wide spaces such as fences, above doors and along corridors. If you need the other way round, choose a design option and we will lay it out for you.
Can I put the Caution Exit Only Sign on a door?
Yes. Self-adhesive vinyl is the neatest choice for doors and glass panels. A 3mm Foamex board with double-sided foam tape also works well on a flat door. Place it at eye level on the push side or beside the door, where it is not hidden when the door is open. If the door is a fire door, check with whoever manages it before screwing anything into it.
Will my brand colours print exactly?
Supply CMYK where you can. RGB files are converted to CMYK for print, which can make very bright greens, blues and oranges look slightly duller. If you need a brand colour matched, give us the Pantone reference and we match it as closely as the material allows. Small differences between a screen and the printed item are normal, because screens give off light and print reflects it. The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed on 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite and self-adhesive vinyl.
Can I have the Caution Exit Only Sign in another language, or in two languages?
Yes. Choose "Add my text and logo to a clean layout (typesetting)" (£15) and send the wording in each language; you get 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes. Keep the symbol and the sign colours the same so the meaning stays clear to everyone. Please send the translation yourself: we lay out the text you give us, we do not translate. The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed on 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite and self-adhesive vinyl.
Can I get a quote for a large order or an unusual size of the Caution Exit Only Sign?
Yes. Use the Get a quote page and tell us the size, quantity, material, deadline and delivery postcode, and attach any artwork you have. We reply by email or WhatsApp with a price. A quote is also the way to go for delivery to Northern Ireland and the islands. The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed in our Manchester workshop.
Can I order several different designs in one order?
Yes. Add each design to the basket as its own line with its own file or online design, then check out once. Delivery is charged once per order, and becomes free when the goods total reaches £99. If several lines use the same artwork, choose "Same artwork as another item in my basket" so you only pay one design fee. The Caution Exit Only Sign starts at £4.49 before delivery.

The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed in our Manchester workshop. Either way, InstantBanners takes the order, checks your file and deals with you from start to finish, and the item is delivered to you by courier.

Can I reorder the same sign later?

If anything like a phone number or price has changed, update the artwork before you reorder. The Caution Exit Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from 297 × 100 mm to 594 × 200 mm.
Can I return this sign if I change my mind?

Can I change my artwork after ordering?
Contact us straight away on 0161 315 1151 or WhatsApp with your order number. If production has not started we can take a corrected file, or cancel the order and refund you in full. Once production starts the order cannot be changed. Printing that matches the design you approved or the file you supplied is not a fault, so check spelling, phone numbers and dates carefully before you order. The Caution Exit Only Sign is printed in our Manchester workshop.
Can someone help me choose the right options for this sign?
Yes. Call us on 0161 315 1151 or message us on WhatsApp and tell us where the sign will go, how long it needs to last and your deadline. You can also ask a question on this page; our team answers and the question may be published to help other buyers. For a price on something the calculator does not cover, use Get a quote.

How many Caution Exit Only signs do I need?
Walk the route people take and put a sign wherever someone needs the message and would otherwise miss it: each entrance, each approach to the hazard and each change of direction.

Add them all as one line with a quantity, or as separate lines if you need different sizes or materials. The Caution Exit Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from 297 × 100 mm to 594 × 200 mm.

What if my order arrives damaged?
Check it when it arrives. If anything is damaged or missing, tell us within 48 hours with photos of the item and the packaging, through the contact form or on WhatsApp, with your order number. Do not send anything back until we reply; we then arrange a reprint or a refund. This does not affect your legal rights, which the returns page explains.
