The vinyl option is an adhesive decal for a suitable surface; the aluminum option is a rigid sign. Both stock options carry the same warning wording and overall dimensions. Other sizes are available by special order; contact us to discuss your requirements.

Placement and mounting

As general guidance, choose a visible fixed location where people approaching the crane operating area can read the warning before entering. Follow your facility’s safety procedures and equipment manufacturer’s label-location guidance. Consider approach direction, lighting, mounting space, and viewing distance when choosing the position.

Apply the vinyl decal to a suitable clean, dry surface following the supplied application instructions. For aluminum, confirm your mounting arrangement before ordering; do not assume mounting holes or hardware are included. Do not cover controls, equipment nameplates, instructions, or other warnings.

A printed warning, not a live status indicator

The wording warns of crane operation overhead. This is a fixed printed sign, not a light, alarm, or device that detects whether a crane is running. Follow your site’s procedures for displaying operating-area warnings and controlling access.

“OSHA danger header” describes the header design, not certification of the installation or workplace. The sign communicates a warning; it does not establish a restricted zone or replace barriers, training, supervision, or safe operating procedures. The sign alone does not guarantee OSHA or ANSI compliance or accident prevention.
