No Mobile Phones Symbol Signs
No Mobile Phones Symbol Signs give you a clear visual instruction where activated mobile phones are not allowed. They help staff, contractors and visitors recognise phone-free areas quickly in laboratories, receptions, clean rooms, workshops and controlled access points.
Where No Mobile Phones Symbol Signs Should Be Fitted
You should install these signs at eye level before people enter areas where mobile phone use could distract operators, affect sensitive equipment or breach site rules. Place them on doors, walls and access points so the restriction is seen before a phone is used.
Viewing Distance Guidance for Symbol-Only Phone Restrictions
Choose the size around the approach distance, lighting and how quickly people need to understand the restriction. A 100 mm sign suits close-range door use, while 150 mm gives better visibility across wider entrances.
| Size option | Practical viewing distance | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| H 100 x W 100 mm | Up to around 3 metres | Doors, counters and small room entrances |
| H 150 x W 150 mm | Up to around 5 metres | Wider access points, corridors and visitor routes |
