No Entry Signs help you stop pedestrians entering restricted doors, corridors, yards and work areas, giving staff, visitors and contractors a clear instruction before they cross into unsafe or controlled spaces.
No Entry Signs are prohibition safety signs used to stop pedestrians entering restricted, hazardous or private areas. They help you control movement at doors, corridors, yards, stores and site entrances where unauthorised access could create injury risk, disruption or security issues.
Where No Entry Signs Should Be Positioned
You should install No Entry Signs at eye level before the restricted point, not after it. Use them on doors, gates, corridor ends, warehouse routes, plant rooms and staff-only entrances where people need a clear instruction before they step into the wrong area.
Choosing a Size for Clear Viewing Distance
Pick the size around how soon people need to react. A5 suits close doors, while A3 to A1 is better for yards, approach routes and wider working areas where the message must be seen earlier.
| Size | Best viewing guide | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| H 841 x W 594 mm | Up to 20 metres | Large yards and site entrances |
| H 594 x W 420 mm | Up to 15 metres | Open work areas and loading routes |
| H 420 x W 297 mm | Up to 10 metres | Corridors, workshops and stores |
| H 297 x W 210 mm | Up to 6 metres | Doors and internal entrances |
| H 210 x W 148 mm | Up to 3 metres | Close-range door access points |
What Changes Once This Sign Is In Place
Once fitted in the right position, the sign helps people stop, reassess and choose another route before entering a restricted area. This supports access control, reduces avoidable interruptions and helps supervisors manage pedestrian movement more consistently.
✅ Helps stop casual walk-throughs into controlled spaces
✅ Gives visitors a clear instruction before risk exposure
✅ Supports safer pedestrian separation around busy areas

No Entry Signs questions answered
What are No Entry Signs used for? No Entry Signs are used to stop pedestrians entering restricted, hazardous, private or staff-only areas where access needs to be controlled clearly.
Should I choose rigid plastic or self-adhesive vinyl? Choose rigid plastic for more permanent wall or door mounting. Choose vinyl when you need a quick adhesive fit on a clean, smooth surface.
Where should a No Entry Sign be fitted? Fit it before the restricted point, ideally at eye level on the door, gate, corridor entrance or approach route people naturally face.
Can this sign be used outdoors? Yes, it can be used indoors or outdoors, but you should choose the material and fixing method to suit exposure, surface type and expected wear.
Does the pictogram matter for compliance? Yes, the red prohibition format and recognised pedestrian pictogram help people understand the instruction quickly, even before they read the wording.

Compare practical no entry sign formats
Where the risk is mainly foot traffic, switch to no pedestrian entry signs to make the restriction more specific for walkways, doors and controlled routes.
For a simpler visual instruction, use no entry symbol safety signs where people need to understand the message quickly without reading extra wording.
For vehicle-facing entrances, compare post mounted no entry signs when the message needs to stand clear beside yards, car parks or service routes.
For tougher indoor or outdoor use, consider no entry aluminium signs where a more durable material is preferred for long-term access control.
