No Entry Polycarbonate Signs
No Entry Polycarbonate Signs help you stop pedestrians walking into restricted or unsafe areas. Use them on gates, doors, fences and outdoor access points where you need a stronger, vandal-resistant prohibition sign that stays readable in exposed working conditions.
Where No Entry Polycarbonate Signs Should Be Installed
You should install these signs at pedestrian approach points before people step into restricted areas, such as locked gates, plant rooms, service yards, boundary fencing and staff-only doors. Position them at eye level where the red prohibition symbol and No entry message can be seen before access is attempted.
Viewing Distance Guidance For Choosing The Right Size
Choose the larger size where people approach from further away, across yards or through open outdoor areas. The smaller size suits close-range doors, gates and narrow walkways where users stand nearby before deciding whether to enter.
| Size option | Typical viewing distance | Best use |
|---|---|---|
| H 400 x W 300 mm | Up to 10 metres / 33 feet | Doors, gates and close pedestrian approaches |
| H 600 x W 450 mm | Up to 18 metres / 59 feet | Fences, yards and wider outdoor access routes |
What Changes Once These No Entry Signs Are In Place
Once fitted in the right position, the sign gives people a clear decision point before entry. It helps you reduce casual access, support site rules and make restricted pedestrian areas easier to manage without relying only on verbal reminders.

Fitting No Entry Polycarbonate Signs Without Weakening The Message
❌ Fitting the sign after the entry point instead of before it.
❌ Mounting it too low where parked items can block the message.
❌ Choosing the smaller size for wide outdoor approaches.
❌ Do not use it as a vehicle traffic sign on public roads.
❌ Do not rely on it where a locked barrier is legally required.
❌ Do not fit it where glare or shadows hide the pedestrian symbol.
✅ Place it at normal eye height before the restricted access point.
✅ Use suitable wall, gate or fence fixings for the surface type.
✅ Keep the red symbol clear of handles, rails and security hardware.

Hard-wearing no entry signs to compare
For a different long-term material, compare no entry aluminium signs for fixed entrances where a rigid metal option suits the setting better.
For locations where damage is a concern, choose anti-tamper no entry signs to support access control in tougher public or shared areas.
For a refined doorway finish, consider acrylic pedestrian entry restriction signs where appearance and clear instruction both matter.
For repeat use across several entrances, use multi-pack no entry prohibition signs to keep access messages consistent across your site.
For more durable and standard sign types, browse no entry prohibition signs for secure areas and choose by material, fixing and location.
