Safety markings in short

Tactical Height Solutions marks warehouse, factory and site floors for safety in Sydney: pedestrian walkways and crossings, forklift travel paths, exclusion zones around racking and machinery, loading dock markings, hazard striping on columns, kerbs and edges, and floor stencils. Colours follow AS 1318, layouts follow your traffic management plan, and work is done around shifts or during shutdowns.

Updated October 2026 by Naldo Neto, IRATA Level 3 and licensed painter.

Keeping pedestrians and forklifts apart is one of the most important controls in any warehouse. Clear floor markings show everyone where to walk, where vehicles travel and where nobody should be.

We mark pedestrian walkways and crossings, forklift travel paths, exclusion zones around racking, docks and machinery, stop lines, pallet and storage bays, and hazard striping on columns, kerbs, ramps and edges. Layouts follow your traffic management plan, and colours follow the safety colour code in AS 1318.

Work is done around shifts, at weekends or during shutdowns, zone by zone, and bollards, guard rails and columns can be repainted in safety yellow at the same time.

Questions about safety markings

What colours should warehouse safety lines be?

Yellow is common for traffic lanes and hazards, with other colours for walkways, storage or specific zones. What matters is using them consistently, following AS 1318 and your traffic management plan.

Will floor markings make our site compliant?

Markings are one control. They support, but do not replace, physical barriers and a traffic management plan. We mark to the plan your safety team has set.

Can you mark while the warehouse operates?

Yes. We work zone by zone, after shifts or at weekends, with the area closed off until the paint is ready.

How long do markings last on busy forklift floors?

It depends on traffic, the floor and the product. We prepare the surface properly and recommend a product to suit the traffic; the busiest areas may need touch-ups more often.
