FAQ on warning markings and warning marking kits

We offer warning markings and warning marking kits for many emergency and service vehicles, vans, special-purpose vehicles, and other vehicle types. Depending on the vehicle and its intended use, different versions may be suitable, for example in accordance with DIN 14502-3 or DIN 30710.

A warning marking kit is a preconfigured set of film elements designed to make a vehicle stand out. In many cases, the kits are prepared for a specific vehicle so that they fit its contours, doors, swage lines, and components as accurately as possible.

Warning markings are often not universal but depend on the specific vehicle. Even small differences can be important, for example:

• rear doors or a tailgate
• fully glazed, partially glazed, or panel van
• wheelbase
• number and position of sliding doors
• model year or model series

This information helps us identify the correct kit and avoid unnecessary follow-up questions.

Please send us as much of the following information as possible:

• manufacturer
• model
• model year or date of first registration
• vehicle version
• rear doors or tailgate
• glazing
• wheelbase or length/height version
• number and side of sliding doors
• required marking: front, rear, sides, or complete kit

The more complete the information, the faster we can check which option is suitable.

Not always. Some features that are important for identifying the correct kit are often not clearly shown in the document. Photos are usually much more helpful, particularly for doors, glazing, rear configuration, or model variants.

Ideally, please send us:

• a straight-on photo of the rear
• both side views
• a front view
• if possible, detailed photos of the doors, rear, sliding doors, and glazing

This allows us to identify the vehicle configuration more quickly and reliably.

Please ensure that the photos do not show people or any other personal data that is not required for the enquiry.

More universal solutions are available for some applications. In many cases, however, vehicle-specific kits are more suitable because they fit the shape of the vehicle better and can be installed more cleanly.

This depends on the vehicle type and its area of use. In simplified terms:

• DIN 14502-3 is particularly relevant to fire service vehicles and certain vehicles used by German public safety authorities and organisations (BOS)
• DIN 30710 typically concerns red-and-white warning markings for certain special-purpose vehicles, vans, municipal vehicles, and similar applications

We use the information you provide to determine which version is suitable for your vehicle.

Often yes, but not always. Vans and emergency or service vehicles in particular are available in different variants within the same model range. Additional information such as doors, glazing, wheelbase, and model year is therefore important.

This is generally possible for some products, but it depends on the specific kit and the parts required. Please send us the item number, details of the vehicle concerned, and ideally a photo of the damaged area.

Many warning marking kits are prepared in a way that allows them to be installed neatly by the customer. A suitable surface and proper application are always important. For more complex vehicle shapes or if the correct version is uncertain, we recommend having the configuration checked carefully in advance.

Different colour combinations may be appropriate depending on the application and standard, for example red/white or red/yellow. The suitable version depends on the vehicle type, intended use, and required configuration.

Ideally, please send us:

• the complete vehicle information
• 3 to 5 informative photos
• the required type of marking
• if available, the item number or a link to a product in our shop

This allows us to review your enquiry more quickly and provide a more targeted response.
