Slip and Trip Warning Signs — Tripping Hazard Signs

Slip and trip warning signs are available in multiple substrates including vinyl, rigid plastic, aluminum, and magnetic materials. Aluminum is recommended for outdoor or high-traffic areas due to its durability. Reflective and glow-in-the-dark finishes are also available for low-light environments, egress routes, and areas requiring enhanced visibility during emergencies.

Custom signs follow OSHA and ANSI Z535-compliant layouts and are available across a range of substrates, making it easy to address site-specific trip and fall risks accurately.

Most orders ship the same day the order is placed. Shield and Supply offers nationwide shipping across the USA, so facilities can receive their tripping hazard signs quickly. A 30-day money-back guarantee is also included on all products, providing additional purchasing confidence for safety managers and procurement teams.

Tripping hazard signs should be posted at the point of hazard — near raised thresholds, uneven flooring, steps, curbs, cords, hoses, or any area where trip risks exist. Signs should be visible at eye level or positioned where approaching personnel can clearly see them before reaching the hazard, in accordance with OSHA and ANSI Z535 guidelines.

Shield and Supply offers durable aluminum-based signs that resist corrosion and fading, making them appropriate for loading docks, outdoor walkways, construction sites, and other exterior environments.

Both options are available. Pre-printed signs are ready to use immediately upon arrival and cover common tripping and slipping hazard messages. Custom signs are printed on demand to match site-specific requirements. Pre-printed options are ideal for standard compliance needs, while custom signs suit unique hazard zones, specialized messaging, or branded facility signage programs.
