Watch for Pedestrians Signs
Use these where vehicles and people share the same ground, such as a parking lot aisle, a school drop-off loop or a service road behind a store. A sign at the point where drivers enter the area reminds them to slow down and look for people before they turn.

Where watch for pedestrians signs are used
A delivery lane behind a grocery store, a fenced yard where forklifts meet foot traffic, a campus loop where a student walks from a dorm lot to a classroom door, or a country church lot where kids run between parked cars all need a warning where a car turns in. A business owner may post one on the pole at the exit of a service drive. A custodian at a school might put one on a bollard by a crosswalk. The problem it solves is a driver focused on the lane who misses someone walking between the cars.
Choosing the size and where to hang it
Bolt it to a pole where a driver stops or slows, such as the lane entrance, and keep it level so the words read straight on. Choose 24 by 18 in for a lot entrance and 12 by 18 in for a narrower service drive. Aluminum is the right choice for outdoor use in rain and snow, and reflective aluminum helps in evening traffic. Plastic is light and works for a short-term setup. Attach it with the corner holes or zip ties.
Questions about watch for pedestrians signs
Caution or warning: which header should I pick?
Pick CAUTION (yellow) for everyday traffic where a bump or a fender tap is the likely worst case. Pick WARNING (orange) for busy, fast or blind areas where a pedestrian could be seriously hurt. Your safety officer or local rules may set the level, so ask them if you are unsure.
Where should the sign go?
Put one at each entry to the walking area and at any crossing that drivers see before they reach people on foot. Angle it toward oncoming traffic and keep it clear of parked cars and trees. Walk the route at the busiest time of day to see what a driver sees.
Can I add a line of my own?
Yes. Type an extra line such as a school name, a building name or Slow Down. Use the live preview to test the line as you type, before you order. Aluminum is the rigid choice for a fixed post, while plastic works for a sign you move between events.
Does the extra line have to be a name?
No. The extra line can be a short reminder such as Slow down or a building name. It is optional, so leave it off if the printed words say enough. Keep the line short so it stays readable at the sign's size, and check the live preview before you order.
Do I need a sign printed on both sides of a pole?
Aluminum can print on one side or both. A two-sided sign suits a pole where drivers come in from two directions. One side is enough for a single lane. Plastic prints on one side only, so pick aluminum when traffic arrives from both ways.
