Delivery Entrance Navigation Signs
Delivery Entrance Navigation Signs show delivery drivers where to enter a site before they reach the wrong doorway, yard or reception point. They help warehouses, offices, schools and commercial premises separate goods-in traffic from visitor and staff access, reducing delays and confusion.
Best Positions For Delivery Entrance Signs
Install this sign at the first clear decision point for delivery drivers: the approach road, gate, yard entrance, goods-in doorway or service access. Position it before drivers commit to the wrong turn, and keep it unobstructed by parked vehicles, fencing or stored stock.
Viewing Distance Guidance
Use the larger option where drivers approach from a vehicle lane or open yard. Use the smaller option where the sign is read on foot or from slow-moving vehicles near the doorway. Treat these distances as practical selection guidance, not a substitute for checking sightlines on site.
| Size option | Practical viewing range | Typical position |
|---|---|---|
| H 300 x W 400 mm | Around 3–8 metres | Doorways, gates and close approach points |
| H 400 x W 600 mm | Around 8–15 metres | Yard entrances, vehicle approaches and wider access routes |
Expected Safety Outcomes After Installation
After installation, drivers get a clear instruction before they enter the wrong access route. This changes behaviour at the point of decision, helping you separate deliveries from reception traffic and reduce repeated questions from drivers.

Installation Guidance
❌ Installing it after the turning point, behind parked vans or where drivers only see it once they have already passed.
❌ Placing it at reception when the delivery decision starts earlier at the gate, service road or yard approach.
❌ Not suitable as a traffic order, speed control, barrier replacement or instruction for hazardous vehicle movements.
❌ Avoid using it where drivers need a directional arrow, access restriction or separate loading instruction instead.
✅ Mount it square to the driver’s approach, high enough to clear parked vehicles, stock and low fencing.
✅ Check it from cab height in daylight and dull conditions, then relocate it if the decision point is still unclear.
Frequently asked questions
Are Delivery Entrance Navigation Signs right for a goods-in entrance? Yes. Use them where drivers need a clear instruction before they reach the building, yard or service access point.
Should I choose 400 x 600 mm or 300 x 400 mm? Choose the larger size for vehicle approaches and wider yards. Choose the smaller size for close-range doorway or gate positions.
Can this sign be used outdoors? Yes, it is listed for indoor and outdoor display. Choose the material and fitting method to suit the surface and exposure.
Is this a mandatory safety sign? No. It is an information sign, so it does not carry an EN ISO 7010 pictogram code.
Where should it not be relied on by itself? Do not use it as the only control for high-risk vehicle routes, restricted access or formal traffic management duties.

Large delivery entrance sign alternatives
For a more compact entry message, choose a standard delivery entrance sign where vehicles are already close to the access point. Useful for smaller yards and simple entrances.
If the delivery route turns after the entrance, add large right arrow delivery direction signs at the next decision point. Helps drivers continue along the intended route without stopping to check.
Where vehicles should turn left after entering, use large left arrow delivery direction signs to guide the approach. A practical option for bigger service roads and delivery approaches.
For entrance, arrow and delivery message combinations, compare the delivery entrance sign selection before placing your order. This helps you choose signs that work together on site.
