CCTV Signs & Stickers

CCTV signs tell people that an area is under video surveillance. Haydon signs here come in A3, A4 and A5 sizes, including data-compliant signs with space for the CCTV operator name and contact details, video and audio versions and A5 window stickers. Dynamic adds A3, A4 and A5 warning signs for CCTV or general warning use. Choose the size by how far away the sign must be read, then whether it goes on a wall or on glass.

Choosing CCTV Signs & Stickers

Pick the size for the reading distance, then the wording, then how the sign fixes to a wall, a door or glass.

Data-compliant Haydon signs

The HAY-WSA3, HAY-WSA4 and HAY-WSA5 leave space for the CCTV operator name and contact details, to support data-protection notice requirements. The HAY-WSA3 is an A3 sign, 297 × 420 mm, with a black and yellow warning graphic on white, for retail, offices, communal areas and site perimeters where an A3 sign is preferred for visibility. The HAY-WSA4 is a rigid A4 panel, 210 × 297 mm, for entranceways, site perimeters, car parks and internal doorways.

Video and audio wording

Where cameras also record sound, the V2 signs carry video and audio wording. The HAY-WSA4-V2 is a plastic, weatherproof A4 sign for indoor or outdoor mounting that weighs about 0.042 kg and fixes with screws, adhesive or cable ties, and the HAY-WSA5-V2 is an A5 sign, 154 × 210 mm, that tells people video and audio recordings are occurring.

Window stickers

For glass, the Haydon A5 video and audio warning sticker is self-adhesive for windows and doors, 154 × 210 mm, with space to add the CCTV operator name and contact details, and the surface should be clean and dry before it goes on.

Dynamic warning signs

The Dynamic A3 sign, 297 × 420 mm, is a high visibility, large format sign for site safety, CCTV warnings or general warnings, with maximum readability at a distance. The A4SIGN is 210 x 297 mm for workplaces, public areas and sites, and the A5SIGN, 148 × 210 mm, is a warning or CCTV notice for areas under surveillance.

Placing the sign

Mount the HAY-WSA4 or HAY-WSA4-V2 at eye level near the camera locations so it is clearly visible, and complete the operator name and contact details on the HAY-WSA5-V2 to meet data-protection requirements.

Frequently asked questions

What should a CCTV in operation sign say?

A CCTV in operation sign should make clear that cameras are recording, usually with a camera symbol, and show who operates the system and how to contact them. ICO guidance also expects the purpose, such as crime prevention, to be clear. Pick a size that can be read before people enter the area. The range here includes data-compliant signs with space for operator and contact details.

Do I need a CCTV sign on my house?

No, not when your cameras cover just your own property. Once a camera records beyond your boundary, such as a pavement, a road or a neighbour's garden, data protection law applies and you should let people know, and a clear sign is the usual way. This applies to video doorbells too. The range here includes self-adhesive window stickers for doors and glass.

Do you need to display signs if you have CCTV?

Yes, a business or organisation using CCTV usually has to tell people they are being recorded, and clear signs are the normal way to do it. Place them at entrances and around the monitored area, visible before people enter the camera's view, and show who runs the system. Where cameras also record sound, the wording should say so. The range here includes video and audio signs.

What is a CCTV sign?

A CCTV sign is a notice that warns people cameras are recording in an area. It deters crime, alerts visitors before they are filmed and helps the camera operator meet data-protection rules on transparency. Signs come as rigid panels for walls and posts, often PVC or plastic, and as self-adhesive stickers for glass. The range here includes large, standard and compact signs plus window stickers.
