Overview

The short answer, then the detail.

A Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways sign gives people clear information where they need it. Choose 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite in sizes from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm); the largest reads at about 24 metres. UK mainland delivery £7.95, free over £99; no VAT added.

Use this sign where you need to say "Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways" clearly. It gives people clear information where they need it, and is commonly fitted in offices, shops, warehouses and public buildings. 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 Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 and HSE workplace transport guidance expect pedestrians and vehicles to be kept apart where possible and warned where they meet.

You can have it printed on 3.5mm Correx fluted polypropylene, light and waterproof, ideal for temporary and site signs, 3mm Foamex (rigid PVC foam board), light and easy to fix indoors or for short-term outdoor use and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, rigid and weatherproof for long-term outdoor use. For signs that stay outdoors for a long time, Dibond is the most durable choice.

Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign: sizes and materials

Choosing a size: we allow about 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25mm of sign height, based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1. That gives A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) (reads at about 12 m), A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) (reads at about 17 m), A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) (reads at about 24 m).

Where to put it: At eye level where people will act on it.

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.

SizeReadable from up to about
A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm)12 m
A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm)17 m
A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm)24 m

Well lit or internally lit signs can be read from further away; dim areas need larger signs.

Is a Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways sign a legal requirement?

The Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) at £28.97 up to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) at £57.10. In between: A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm). Prices are the lowest option for each size.

How far away can the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways 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: A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) reads from about 12 m, A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) reads from about 17 m and A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) reads from about 24 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

How much does the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign cost?

The Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign starts from £28.97 with size A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) and material 3.5mm Correx 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign take to make?

On the option the calculator opens on, Saver is ready to dispatch in 5 working days, Standard in 3 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign starts at £28.97 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 £28.97 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign?

"Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways" 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign?

The board options are 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, so the board version is as thick as the figure in its name. 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 the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign be used outside?

Yes, in the right material. Dibond is the best choice for signs that stay outside long term. Correx is weatherproof and fine outside for temporary use. 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Will the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign show up at night?

Only where there is light on it. We print on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 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.

How do I fix the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways 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. Correx is best cable tied to fencing or fixed to posts. The Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example A3 landscape (420 × 297 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm) to A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm).

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. The Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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 an A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm) design needs about 9,933 × 7,016 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.

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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

How much is an A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) sign?

A A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) sign starts at £38.33 on the lowest priced options and Saver turnaround. Pick that size in the calculator to see the price with your own material, finishing and turnaround. By material: 3.5mm Correx £38.33, 3mm Foamex £45.17 and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite £64.39. UK mainland delivery is £7.95, free once your basket reaches £99.

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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed in our Manchester workshop or by our UK production partner, depending on the size and material.

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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed in our Manchester workshop or by our UK production partner, depending on the size and material.

Do you deliver Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is ready to dispatch in 5 working days on Saver or 2 on Express.

Can I pay for express production on the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign?

Yes. Express makes this sign ready to dispatch in 2 working days on the opening option, priced at £38.64 against £28.97 on Saver (5 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.

How do the material prices compare on the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign?

At A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm): 3.5mm Correx £28.97, 3mm Foamex £34.56 and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite £50.09. 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign?

Signs that are often needed alongside it include Caution Lorries Turning Sign, Beware Pedestrians Crossing Sign, Beware Pedestrians Sign and Watch Out for Trucks 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Is the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign portrait or landscape?

This design is landscape, in A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm), A2 landscape (594 × 420 mm) and A1 landscape (841 × 594 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 get the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign bigger than A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm)?

The largest listed size is A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), from £57.10. 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.

Will this sign bend or bow in the sun?

Foamex is a foamed plastic, so in strong sun and heat a large, thin board can bow, especially if it is only fixed at the corners. Dibond has aluminium skins and stays flat, which is why it is the choice for long-term outdoor signs. Fixing Foamex flat against a wall, or choosing a thicker board, keeps it straighter. The Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Can I put the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign on a door?

Yes, fixed with double-sided foam tape or screws. 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 this sign be easy to read for people with poor sight?

Strong contrast, a plain bold typeface and a size to suit the viewing distance make the biggest difference. Our standard safety sign designs use the high-contrast colour pairs set by the safety sign scheme. Place signs at eye level, well lit and without glare, and keep the wording short. For the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm).

Can I have the Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways 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 Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 3mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Can I get a VAT invoice?

No. We are not VAT registered, so we do not charge VAT and cannot issue a VAT invoice. You get an order confirmation email with the items, options and total paid, which works as your receipt. Because no VAT is added, the price you see in the calculator is the price you pay for the goods, with delivery shown at checkout.

The Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign starts at £28.97 before delivery.

Can I return this sign if I change my mind?

How many Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways 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. Larger areas usually need the same sign more than once, in the size that suits each viewing distance. Add them all as one line with a quantity, or as separate lines if you need different sizes or materials. The Caution Pedestrians Look Both Ways Sign starts at £28.97 before delivery.

What if my order arrives damaged?

How do I clean this sign?

Wipe with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry. Do not use solvents, scouring pads or strong cleaners, which can dull or lift the print. Store spare boards flat so they do not bow.
