Serving Durango, Cortez, Pagosa Springs, Bayfield & Silverton, CO.


Warehouses are often busy and even dangerous places where it can be difficult to create order. Good warehouse signs can help provide a foundation for order and safety by helping your warehouse to operate smoothly. That is often impossible for staff if they don’t have the proper warehouse signage for safely navigating the space. Warehouse signs are functional; there’s rarely any need to promote a product or service with a warehouse sign and they are usually focused exclusively on safety and wayfinding.

Because most warehouse signs are either for safety signs directional purposes, they can be a bit drab. That’s why warehouse signs should be designed with big bold lettering and possibly vivid orange or yellow colors which will help get the attention of warehouse workers and visitors.

Some common warehouse signs include:

  • Authorized personnel only
  • Watch out for forklifts / lift trucks
  • Loading zone
  • Proper footwear / helmets must be worn at all times
  • Injury prevention signs, i.e. advice on how to lift heavy objects
  • Entrance / Exit signs
  • Stairwell signs
  • Emergency exit signage
  • Elevator signs
  • Area under video surveillance
  • Numbering and lettering signage
  • Other directional signs
  • And more
