Caution Floor Signs | OSHA Compliant Caution Signs for Floor

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What is a "Caution" floor sign?

It is an adhesive sign placed in a pedestrian's direct line of sight. You can find these high-impact warnings in our caution floor signs collection.

Q. Are these signs slip-resistant?

Yes. Quality signs use a textured, anti-slip laminate that meets ANSI safety standards. This ensures the sign doesn't become a hazard itself, similar to our floor signs.

Q. How long do floor signs last in a warehouse?

Heavy-duty versions can last up to 3 years. They are designed with tapered edges much like our forklift floor signs to prevent wheels from peeling them up.

Q. Where is the best place to put a "Watch Your Step" floor sign?

Place it directly before the hazard, such as at staircases or doorways. For specialized hazards, you might combine these with electrical safety signs near floor panels.

Q. Can I install these signs on carpet?

Standard adhesives are for concrete or tile. For offices with carpet, we recommend using the custom tools found in our custom signs section to request specific carpet-safe backings.

About our Caution Fold-Up Signs

OSHA requires employers to provide Caution Signs where a hazard exists at the workplace. Ideally, caution signs prevent workplace injuries and fatalities but sometimes these are accidentally missed. Use our Caution Floor Signs to ensure that your message is never missed. These signs are ideal for places where work includes wet processes or slip, trip and fall hazards [“STF” areas]. Signs are also great for outdoor use – icy areas, slippery ramps, falling snow and more. Find two different types of signs.

• FloorBoss signs are molded and feature an easy-grasp handle and superior strength and height.
• The “Reversibles” are lightweight corrugated plastic.
• Sign messages are printed and visible on both sides. Signs are self-supporting and do not need any tools. Place them just where your message will be seen.
• For temporary hazards, choose our blank write-on signs. The rewritable surface allows you to change the message periodically.
