Ensuring the public’s safety around your dams and facilities, be they used for flow control or hydroelectric energy production, is a topic often spoken about by the Canadian Dam Association (CDA) and Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF). We can help implement and manage the site-specific safety measures through our Safety Around Dams Toolbox.
Be it signage, safety or debris booms, cameras or access control, we can develop, supply and install everything your facility needs.
All dam owners and operators need to consider the safety measures needed to protect members of the public around their dams. Safety Signage is a crucial component of the dam's Public Safety Plan and has a high effort to impact ratio.
Whether you have the sizes and sign content in mind or you need help putting it all together, give us a call; we can help.

The signs are grouped into DANGER signs (red on white) and ATTENTION signs (yellow on white). See the resource section
for more information.
Your logo, company name and site name will be added to the panel, and a sketch will be provided for approval in order to
release the fabrication.
Panel dimensions are a function of the distance between a visitor to the site and the specific danger that the panel is addressing. This distance can therefore vary depending on your site and will then have impact on the panel dimensions. There are however standard panel sizes that can be used as starting points, see below;
1200 mm wide x 800 mm tall, text having a height of 14 cm
2400 mm wide x 1200 mm high, text having a height of 28 cm
1200 mm wide x 1200 mm high
450 mm wide x 400 mm high
450 mm wide x 600 mm high
1200 mm wide x 800 mm high, text having a height of 14 cm
