Climbing Awareness Sign

The board options are 3.5mm Correx, 5mm 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.

Only where there is light on it. We print on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm 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.

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 Climbing Awareness Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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 Climbing Awareness Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

For items read close up, aim for 300 dpi at the finished size. At 300 dpi an A1 (594 × 841 mm) design needs about 7,016 × 9,933 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.

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 Climbing Awareness Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example A3 (297 × 420 mm).

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 Climbing Awareness Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 (297 × 420 mm) to A1 (594 × 841 mm).

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 Climbing Awareness Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example A3 (297 × 420 mm).

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 Climbing Awareness Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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 Climbing Awareness Sign is printed in our Manchester workshop or by our UK production partner, depending on the size and material.

If the date is very tight, call 0161 315 1151 before you order.

At A3 (297 × 420 mm): 3.5mm Correx £28.97, 5mm Foamex £33.65 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.

Signs that are often needed alongside it include Courts for Basketball Use Only Sign, Dog Fouling Clean It Up Sign, Dogs Allowed Sign and Field Under Repair Sign. Each has its own page with sizes, materials and live prices, and ordering them in the same material keeps a set looking consistent.

This design is portrait, in A3 (297 × 420 mm), A2 (420 × 594 mm) and A1 (594 × 841 mm). Portrait suits doors, posts and narrow wall spaces. If you need the other way round, choose a design option and we will lay it out for you.

The largest listed size is A1 (594 × 841 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.

Foamex and Correx cut with a sharp craft knife and a straight edge: score a few times, then snap or cut through. Dibond has aluminium skins, so it needs a fine-toothed saw and a steady hand. Drill fixing holes with an ordinary drill bit, going slowly, and keep holes at least 10 mm from the edge. Cutting into the print loses the bleed, so allow for it in the design. The Climbing Awareness Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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. The Climbing Awareness Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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 Climbing Awareness Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 (297 × 420 mm) to A1 (594 × 841 mm).

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 Climbing Awareness Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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 Climbing Awareness Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example A3 (297 × 420 mm).
