- Ten materials, two sizes
- Screen printing resists oils solvents
- Repositionable magnetic version

This W014 forklift warning sign flags powered vehicle movement across an area shared with people on foot. The symbol has been listed on the ISO 7010 register under code W014 since 1 May 2011. The yellow triangle with a black border comes with 100 or 200 mm sides. Ten materials cover gates, racking uprights, concrete posts and loading bay glazing.
Forklift warning signage: the key points
- → W014 code from the ISO register: the standardised pictogram identifies a moving industrial vehicle without ambiguity.
- → Ten materials, two sizes: 100 or 200 mm side to match the reading distance.
- → Screen printing resists oils and solvents: the marking survives daily loading-bay use.
- → Repositionable magnetic version: mounting without drilling on ferrous substrates.
- → Loading bay, aisle, workshop: a signal suited to each vehicle-pedestrian conflict point.
Where the W014 signal belongs in a logistics flow
The W014 signal goes wherever a powered vehicle path crosses a pedestrian path. It has to be read before entry into the conflict zone, not at the moment of the crossing. An aisle exit, an airlock, a loading bay: the rule holds in each case, you signal upstream of the meeting point.
- → Aisle exit onto a pedestrian area: the triangle goes on the pedestrian side, at eye level.
- → Warehouse gate and airlock: it warns the visitor entering on foot into a vehicle area.
- → Loading bay: repeated reversing creates the most common blind spot.
- → Junction of two aisles: two vehicles at low speed still leave a trapping risk.
- → Battery charging room exit: trucks pull out loaded, often on a slight slope.
Yellow ground and black border: the shape rule
ISO 3864-1 fixes the geometry of the warning signal: equilateral triangle, yellow ground, black border, black symbol. ISO 7010 then assigns the symbol. The ISO register lists the forklift truck under code W014, registered on 1 May 2011 and still active, with the intended behaviour of avoiding collision with a moving industrial vehicle.
Since 2013, ISO 7010 pictograms have been the only ones accepted for new signage in Europe. In France, the order of 4 November 1993 requires the employer to signal risks that remain once collective protection is in place. This sign belongs to the yellow warning and hazard signs family. Signage replaces neither the physical separation of flows nor driver training: the traffic plan is built with the other items in building signage.
Matching the material to the mounting point
| Mounting point | Recommended material | Size |
|---|---|---|
| Outdoor gate, fence, bay post | White dibond aluminium 3 mm | 200 mm |
| Concrete post on a main aisle | PVC 2 mm | 100 or 200 mm |
| Racking upright, pallet rack frame | White vinyl 0.25 mm | 100 or 200 mm |
| Ferrous guard, cover or door | Magnetic vinyl 0.8 mm | 100 or 200 mm |
| Loading bay or driver office glazing | Plexiglass 4 mm | 200 mm |
| Area with no emergency lighting | Photoluminescent 1 mm | 200 mm |
| Sheltered workshop partition | PVC 1 mm | 100 or 200 mm |
Telling W014 apart from other logistics area signals
Three yellow signals often share the same few square metres, and misattribution is common. W014 designates a moving industrial vehicle, forklift truck or ride-on pallet truck. The construction equipment sign designates earthmoving plant, not a warehouse vehicle. The suspended loads sign covers a load above a walkway.
The uneven surface fall risk sign deals with an unguarded bay edge: it complements W014 without duplicating it. Where no standard symbol matches, the customised sign allows a bespoke signal, as with the rest of the general and specific instruction signs. Industrial signage extends installation to floor marking via industrial signage and its signage accessories.
Frequently asked questions about the forklift warning sign
Which ISO 7010 code covers a forklift truck?
The symbol is listed as W014, titled Warning; Fork lift trucks and other industrial vehicles, on the ISO 7010 register. It shows a forklift truck in profile and a human figure, on a yellow triangle with a black border. It was registered on 1 May 2011. Quoting the code in a specification removes any ambiguity when ordering.
Is the sign enough to make an aisle safe?
No. Signage comes last, after risk removal and physical separation of flows. A W014 sign works alongside floor marking, a protective barrier or a junction mirror. The site risk assessment determines which combination applies and where each signal goes.
Should a text panel be added under the pictogram?
The ISO register recommends a supplementary text panel where exposed staff have received neither written instructions nor training on the signal. On a site with external visitors on foot, added wording clearly improves immediate understanding. The customised sign allows that version to be composed.
Which size suits a warehouse gate?
The 200 mm is the only relevant size on a gate: it stays legible from an approach distance of several metres, on foot or behind the wheel. The 100 mm is for close mounting, on a racking upright or a room door. Both sizes can coexist on one site.
Can it be moved when storage campaigns change?
Magnetic vinyl 0.8 mm answers that need: it grips any ferrous substrate, lifts off without residue and repositions when the picking area moves. It comes in 100 and 200 mm. On a non-ferrous substrate, white vinyl 0.25 mm remains the easiest option to re-apply.
