Why it works

Warning drivers can act on

Early, specific warning

The 300 yds plate tells drivers how far ahead the works start, so they slow and merge in good time.

Street-works compliant

Meets Chapter 8, BS 8442:2015, the Red Book 2013 and the TSRGD when set up to the code of practice.

No rust, no theft

Fully recycled polypropylene has no metal to corrode and no scrap value worth stealing.

Up in seconds

The retractable stand folds out of the A-frame - no tools, no loose parts.

UK made

Moulded in the UK by Melba Swintex, with bespoke vinyl faces made to order.

Frequently asked questions

When should I use a 300 yds plate rather than 100 yds?

Match the plate to how far ahead of the works the sign stands. The 300 yds plate suits longer approaches where drivers need earlier warning; the same Q-Sign is also sold with 100 yds, 800 yds, blank and other supplementary plates.

Can this sign be used on the public highway?

Yes. It conforms to Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual, BS 8442:2015, the Red Book 2013 and the TSRGD when set up to the Safety at Street Works code of practice.

Does it need any assembly on site?

No. The retractable stand is built into the A-frame - unfold it and the sign is free-standing. There are no tools, bolts or separate legs to carry.

How do I stop it blowing over on an exposed road?

The Q-Sign range is wind-tested with ballast fitted. On exposed or windy sites, add ready-filled polypropylene sand bags or the clip-on Melba Swintex ballast weight.

Is it awkward to transport between jobs?

No. It folds flat to 60mm deep, weighs 8.8kg for a one-person lift, and stacks for the van or pallet - 30 signs fit on a single pallet.

Why buy a plastic frame instead of metal?

The frame is fully recycled polypropylene, so it cannot rust, does not conduct lightning and has no scrap value - it can be left out overnight without attracting metal theft.

Can I get a different legend or my own artwork on this frame?

Yes. The vinyl sign faces are made to order, so the same A-frame can carry a different diagram, distance or bespoke artwork - ask about trade-account pricing for bulk orders.
