No Admittance Authorised Personnel Only Signs help you restrict access to staff-only doors, plant rooms, service areas and controlled workplace entrances.
No Admittance Authorised Personnel Only Signs help you stop unauthorised access before someone reaches a restricted doorway, plant room or staff-only area. They give visitors, contractors and employees a clear entry rule, reducing confusion and helping you protect sensitive or hazardous spaces.
Where No Admittance Authorised Personnel Only Signs Should Be Fitted
You should install these signs at eye level on doors, gates, corridors and entrances leading to restricted rooms. Good placement matters because people must see the instruction before they try to enter, especially near plant rooms, stockrooms, workshops, service routes and back-of-house access points.
Viewing Distance Guidance for Restricted Access Entrances
Choose the size around how quickly the sign must be seen. Small door signs suit close-range reading at around 1–3 metres, while larger A3, A2 and A1 options work better across corridors, yards and larger entrances where people approach from further away.
| Size option | Practical viewing use |
|---|---|
| H 100 x W 250 mm | Close door or reception counter use, around 1–2 metres |
| H 210 x W 148 mm | Standard door reading distance, around 1–3 metres |
| H 297 x W 210 mm | Office corridors and staff-only doors, around 3–5 metres |
| H 420 x W 297 mm | Busy workplace approaches, around 5–8 metres |
| H 594 x W 420 mm | Large entrances, stores and service routes, around 8–12 metres |
| H 841 x W 594 mm | Wide access points and outdoor approaches, around 12 metres plus |
What This Restricted Entry Sign Helps Change On Site
Once fitted in the right place, the sign gives people a clear decision point before they enter. It helps you separate authorised staff from visitors, reduce accidental access and support tighter control around equipment, stock, records or higher-risk workplace spaces.
✅ Fewer visitors stepping into staff-only areas by mistake
✅ Clearer access control for contractors and temporary workers
✅ Better protection around restricted rooms and service entrances

No Admittance Authorised Personnel Only Signs questions answered
What are No Admittance Authorised Personnel Only Signs used for? They are used to tell visitors, contractors and unauthorised staff that entry is restricted beyond a doorway, gate or access point.
Where should I fit this restricted access sign? Fit it where people decide whether to enter, such as staff-only doors, plant rooms, service corridors, storage rooms and controlled workplace entrances.
Which material should I choose? Use self-adhesive vinyl on smooth indoor surfaces, removable repositionable vinyl where placement may change and rigid plastic for a stronger wall or door-mounted sign.
Does this sign help with safety compliance? Yes, it uses a recognised prohibition layout and supports clear access control when fitted in a visible, relevant position.
Is the Authorised Personnel Only wording better than a no entry sign? Choose this version when some people are allowed through, because it explains that access is restricted rather than completely prohibited.

Useful alternatives for restricted entrances
For a closely matched wording option, compare authorised personnel only signage when you need a broader access control choice. Suitable for staff doors, stores and back-of-house spaces.
Where several entrances need the same restriction, choose pack of 6 authorised personnel signs for a consistent site-wide message. Helpful for warehouses, schools and managed facilities.
For front-facing areas, use acrylic no admittance signs where the warning must still look smart. Ideal for offices, receptions and controlled visitor entrances.
If you need a simpler ban on access, consider no access safety signs in multipacks for repeated restricted points. Good when the message needs to be direct and easy to understand.
To compare related restrictions, browse workplace no access and pedestrian signs before finalising your choice. This helps you align wording with the real access risk.
