Triangle Temporary Road Signs

Triangular signs warn. They sit on a flat base and point upward, with a red border on a white background for permanent signs or a yellow background for temporary ones, flagging a hazard ahead such as a bend, a junction or a crossing. The one exception is the downward-pointing give way triangle. Keeping the shape reserved for warnings means drivers recognise the message from a distance, before the symbol itself is clear. All standard sizes are available.

Temporary Road Signs and Sign Frames

We supply traffic management equipment, road works signage and temporary Chapter 8 signs to the public and private sector across the UK.

Our temporary signs direct vehicles and people wherever traffic needs managing, from road works and lane closures to festivals, car parks and private events. With custom text options, they suit far more than the highway.

What are temporary road signs?

Temporary road signs give short-term instructions during road works, diversions or events. Unlike a permanent sign bolted to a post, they're made to be set up, moved and taken down as a site changes. Most sit in a frame or stand so they can stand freely on the road or verge.

Chapter 8 and BS 8442

Signing at road works in the UK follows Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual. Our rigid signs are made from Zintec aluminium and conform to BS 8442 and Chapter 8, so they meet the standard expected on public roads.

Sign frames and stands

A sign is only as good as the frame holding it up. We stock stanchion frames and folding stands sized for triangular and rectangular signs. Many fold flat, so a crew can carry several in a van and set them out in minutes.

Signs for events and private sites

Managing parking at an event, or directing visitors around a private estate? Add your own wording and we'll make a temporary sign to match. Signs used on private land don't need highways authorisation, so you have a free hand with the message.

Common uses

  • Road works, lane closures and carriageway maintenance
  • Diversions and temporary traffic routes
  • Car parks and event parking
  • Festivals, shows and sporting events
  • Construction sites and private estates

Excellent product at a good price. I did have an issue with the first sign delivered where it was quite badly damaged in transit (couriers fault), but Street Signs Direct corrected this by sending a replacement in good time. Customer service was good, with timely responses to my correspondence. Recommend this company if you are looking for a street sign.

Wanting to buy a sign for friends who once lived in England, I took a chance and ordered on-line from Street Signs Direct. When the sign arrived, I was amazed at the size of the parcel, much bigger than I imagined it would be. More impressive was the production of the sign reflecting my friends street address. They are going to LOVE it! I highly recommend this company, they exceeded my expectations, thank you.

Perfect, the sign was delivered on time and is a completely authentic City of London street sign. You can by cheaper rubbishy plastic signs elsewhere, or fiendishly expensive authentic ones, but I reckon this is the place to go if you want reasonably priced and top notch quality.

Delighted with the bespoke sign supplied by DHF Products. Our particular size, wording and material requirements were all taken on board, including adjustments to the draft design until we were completely satisfied. The sign has been delivered exactly as agreed and priced competitively.
