Male and Female Toilet Corridor Signs
Male and Female Toilet Corridor Signs use clear black male and female pictograms on a white corridor-facing panel to help visitors, staff and contractors identify mixed toilet facilities in indoor premises, reducing hesitation before they reach the washroom door.
Where to Install Male and Female Toilet Corridor Signs
Install this sign above or beside mixed male and female toilet entrances where people approach from a corridor, reception area or open indoor space. Higher placement keeps the symbols visible before visitors reach the door and reduces hesitation.
Viewing Distance for Corridor Use
For a 150 x 300mm corridor sign, treat it as a close to medium range toilet identifier. Place it where the panel can be picked up from about 3–8 metres on normal indoor approaches, then check glare, door swing and sightlines from both directions.
| Size option | Practical viewing range | Best use |
|---|---|---|
| H 150 x W 300mm | Approx. 3–8 metres | Indoor corridors, reception routes and shared toilet approaches |

Installation Guidance
❌ Mounting it flat on the door when corridor visibility is the reason for buying it.
❌ Placing it behind door leaves, plant displays, shelving or reception furniture.
❌ Using weak fixings in plasterboard, tiled walls or high-traffic public areas.
❌ Do not use it outdoors, in wet rooms or where reflective visibility is required.
❌ Do not use it for accessible toilet facilities unless the correct accessible symbol is also displayed.
❌ Do not rely on it where separate male and female doors need individual identification.
✅ Use the supplied wall bracket and select screws and plugs matched to the wall substrate.
✅ Set it above normal head height but still readable from everyday corridor approaches.
✅ Check both approach directions after fitting and keep lighting glare off the glossy face.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Male and Female Toilet Corridor Signs right for a mixed toilet entrance? Yes. Use this sign where one shared toilet area or entrance serves male and female users and people need to identify it before reaching the door.
Can I use it on a toilet door instead? You should choose a flat door sign if users only need confirmation at the door. This corridor version is better when people approach along a hallway or open area.
Does it include fixing materials? The wall bracket is included, but fixing materials are not. Choose screws and plugs to suit the wall surface you are fitting into.
Is this sign suitable outdoors? No. The supplied details support indoor display. Use an outdoor-rated sign if the location is external, damp or exposed.
Is it photoluminescent? No. This version is non-photoluminescent. Choose a glow product where visibility during lighting loss is needed.
Why use symbols rather than wording? Symbols are recognised quickly by many users and avoid overloading a corridor sign with unnecessary text.

Build clearer corridor washroom routes
For a projecting option used around shared facilities, compare with the mixed toilets projecting information sign. It helps people identify toilet access from the corridor approach.
Where the route leads specifically to female facilities, consider the double sided female corridor sign. It is useful when the washroom entrance is approached from two directions.
For side-on visibility at a female toilet entrance, review female projecting 3D washroom signs. They help reduce missed doors in longer or busier corridors.
To complete the female washroom layout, browse the female toilet signs hub. This gives you matching options for doors, corridors and shared access points.
