Danger Full Cylinders No Smoking Signs
Danger Full Cylinders No Smoking Signs warn people that pressurised cylinders are stored nearby and smoking is prohibited. They help you protect staff, contractors and visitors in gas stores, workshops, labs and maintenance areas where ignition control must be obvious.
Where Full Cylinder No Smoking Signs Should Be Displayed
You should install this sign at entrances to full cylinder stores, gas cages, service cupboards, workshops, laboratories and delivery holding points. Place it before people reach the cylinders so the warning and no smoking rule are seen before a lighter, cigarette or ignition source enters the space.
Viewing Distance Guidance for Cylinder Storage Areas
Choose a size that matches the approach distance. A 300 x 250mm sign suits close-range cylinder cupboards, gas rooms and workshop walls where people normally read the message within a few metres.
| Sign size | Practical viewing distance | Best use |
|---|---|---|
| 300 x 250mm | Up to around 6 metres | Cylinder cupboards, lab stores, workshops |
| Larger formats if specified | Around 6–12 metres | Open yards, wider approaches, delivery routes |
Safer Behaviour Around Stored Full Cylinders
Once installed, this sign gives people a clear visual stop-point before entering a cylinder storage area. It reinforces that full cylinders are a controlled hazard and that smoking must stay away from the storage position, not just the cylinder itself.

Practical Fitting Advice for Full Cylinder No Smoking Control
❌ Fitting the sign behind stored cylinders where it becomes hidden.
❌ Mounting it too low on cupboards where trolleys or stock block the message.
❌ Placing it only inside the store, after people have already entered.
❌ Do not use it as the only control for poor ventilation or damaged cylinders.
❌ Do not rely on it where naked flames, hot works or vehicle ignition risks also need control.
❌ Do not use it to identify empty cylinder storage if full and empty cylinders are separated.
✅ Mount it at eye level on the main approach to the cylinder storage point.
✅ Use rigid plastic for exposed walls, stores and outdoor cylinder cages.
✅ Keep the sign visible during deliveries, inspections and cylinder changeovers.
Danger Full Cylinders No Smoking Signs questions answered
What are Danger Full Cylinders No Smoking Signs used for? They are used to warn people that full pressurised cylinders are stored nearby and that smoking is not allowed in that location.
Where should I put this sign? Install it at the entrance to cylinder stores, gas cupboards, laboratories, workshops, cages and any place where people approach stored full cylinders.
Does this sign cover both the hazard and the rule? Yes. It combines a cylinder hazard warning with a no smoking prohibition, helping you communicate the risk and required behaviour in one sign.
