About this decal

An emergency shut off sticker is a one-line decal that labels a control, so the next person who needs it can find it quickly. The sample prints EMERGENCY SHUT OFF, and you can type different words in its place. We print exactly what you type, in the lettering color and sticker background you pick. It suits fuel trucks, generators, air compressors, pumps and other equipment with a shutoff that needs a clear label. The decal is $18.99 each, and a Set of 2 at $37.98 gives you two identical decals for one unit or for two machines.

Start with the shutoff itself. Find the control on your machine, then put the label where a person standing at that machine will see it. We do not know where any machine's shutoff sits, so the spot is your call, and the equipment maker can confirm where the control is. Measure the flat, clean area with a tape. A 12 inch decal suits a small pump or compressor housing, while 18 or 24 inches fits a fuel tank panel or a generator frame. The preview shows a truck door, so check the size against your own equipment. Black lettering on white or yellow is the easiest pair to read.

The decal labels a control that is already there. It does not install a shutoff, change how a machine runs, or stand in for the maker's labels, the manual, inspections or operator training. A sticker also cannot tell anyone when to use the shutoff, so the people who run the equipment still need to know. We make no claim that this sticker keeps anyone safe. If you want to know which label or sign your equipment or workplace calls for, ask the equipment maker or your state agency, because those rules can change.

A contour cut at +$5 per decal trims the sticker to the letters in one piece, about 1/4 inch out, so no rectangle sits behind the words. Reflective film works on this one-line decal at +$5 for 12 inches, +$9 for 18 inches or +$15 for 24 inches, and headlight beams pick the words out at night. You install it yourself, with the install page video. The 3-year guarantee replaces a decal that peels or comes off, free. Shipping is $7.99, or free on orders of $99 or more.

Questions about this decal

Can I change the words on an emergency shut off sticker?

Yes. The sample says EMERGENCY SHUT OFF on one line, and you can type other words in its place as long as they still fit on one line. We print exactly what you type. Lettering decals have no proof email, so the preview on the page is the final look before printing. If your words run long, a 12 inch decal may be too cramped, and the 18 or 24 inch width gives the lettering more room.

What width should an emergency shut off decal be for a generator or pump?

Use the flat, clean area you measured. Width is the full decal from one side to the other, so keep it clear of bolts, hoses, handles and panel edges. Pick the widest size that still clears all of those. The plain decal costs the same at 12, 18 or 24 inches, so the open space decides the size, not the price.

Is a reflective emergency shut off sticker worth the extra cost?

It depends on where the machine stands. Reflective film returns headlight beams toward the driver, so it stands out at night on a truck, a trailer pump or equipment parked along a road. A generator inside a closed shed will probably never see a headlight, so plain vinyl may be all it needs. For this one-line decal, reflective adds +$5 at 12 inches, +$9 at 18 inches and +$15 at 24 inches.

Can I put an emergency shut off decal on glass?

Yes. Our vinyl can be applied to glass, such as a shop window or a glass door on a shed or equipment room. Clean the glass well and follow the install sheet. For glass, the contour cut at +$5 per decal is a natural pick, since the lettering needs no backing rectangle on the pane. For tinted glass, ask us first through the contact page.

Does an emergency shut off sticker count as an inspection or training?

No. A decal is a label. It does not stand in for an inspection, a service check or operator training, and it does not show that the shutoff works. The equipment manual shows where the control is and what labels the maker expects. For any label rules that apply to your work, ask your state agency or the safety office that covers your crew, since those rules can change.

I had quite a few questions before ordering, all of which were answered promptly on a Sunday, which I was so thankful for. My order arrived much earlier than expected and the quality is amazing! I will definitely be ordering again in the future.
