Reviews
At our commercial building in Auckland, we placed this “Danger Electric Shock Risk” sign near the switchgear. The sign appears to meet the common standards — yellow hazard triangle with black symbol and text — which helps ensure anyone visiting or working there understands the risk. The material seems weather‑resistant and sturdy; after weeks outside in wind and occasional rain, it’s still firmly fixed and legible. For anyone managing electrical installations or maintenance rooms, this sign is a simple but important safety investment.
The sign does what it should: warns people of electrical danger clearly and effectively. We attached ours to a metal enclosure inside our facility and it stayed put well. That said, if you mount it too low or in a cluttered area, it can be missed - so you want to put it at eye‑level and keep the surrounding area clear for maximum safety impact. Overall, a useful and sensible sign for everyday electrical safety.
We mounted this “Danger Electric Shock Risk” sign next to the main electrical panel at our plant in Birmingham, and it works exactly as intended. The bold lightning‑bolt pictogram and the wording stand out clearly — even from a distance — which ensures anyone approaching the panel is immediately warned. The rigid‑plastic version feels durable and has held up well through rain and dust when used outdoors. It gives a real sense of safety and compliance. Highly recommended for any site with electrical equipment or exposed wiring.
bought the self‑adhesive vinyl version for a rental property’s fuse box door in Hamilton. Application was simple and the sign looks clean. But compared with heavier‑duty aluminium or rigid‑plastic signs, the vinyl feels a bit thin - I’d hesitate to use it long‑term outdoors or in rough industrial settings. For indoor use or light‑duty areas it’s decent, but for heavy industrial or outdoor exposed wiring I’d consider a more robust material.
