Installation 

For easy to follow instructions on how to position a Firefighter Safety Warning Sign see: instructions  at the City of Bradenton, FL Fire Department's web site.

If you need the aluminum sign but prefer not to drill holes, use 100% silicone caulk and double-sided tape. Attach a 1” x 1” piece of the tape to each corner on the back side. Apply a bead of caulk along the perimeter, about ½” in from the sign edge. Do not get caulk on your tape. Next, apply 3 to 4 wavy horizontal lines of caulk the length of the sign. Align the sign to registration marks you have made on the clean mounting surface and firmly press the sign on to your wall. Make sure the double-sided tape has gripped the mounting surface before letting go of sign. The tape will now hold the Firefighter Warning Sign in place until the caulk fully sets up. Clean up any excess caulk carefully following the manufacturer's instructions on the tube.
