No Pedestrians Signs
No Pedestrians Signs tell staff, visitors and contractors that foot access is not allowed beyond a chosen point. You can use them near vehicle routes, loading bays, plant rooms, workshops and restricted entrances to reduce confusion and keep people away from moving traffic or operational hazards.
Where No Pedestrians Signs Should Be Placed
You should install these signs at the exact point where people might wrongly walk into a vehicle route, loading area, machinery approach, warehouse doorway or restricted entrance. Clear eye-level positioning helps you stop hesitation before someone steps into a higher-risk area.
Choosing A Practical Viewing Distance
Choose the sign size around how early you need people to react. Small doorway signs suit close approach, while larger signs work better before yards, loading areas and busy site traffic routes.
| Size option | Best practical viewing distance | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| H 841 x W 594 mm | 20–25 metres | Large yards and open approach routes |
| H 594 x W 420 mm | 15–20 metres | Warehouse traffic routes and loading bays |
| H 420 x W 297 mm | 10–15 metres | Workshop entrances and plant access points |
| H 297 x W 210 mm | 5–10 metres | Doors, gates and internal walkways |
| H 210 x W 148 mm | 2–5 metres | Close-range indoor access control |
What This Sign Helps Change On Site
Once fitted in the right position, the sign helps you remove doubt at restricted pedestrian entry points, steer people towards safer routes and reduce the chance of someone walking into vehicle, machinery or operational risk areas.

No Pedestrians Signs questions answered
What are No Pedestrians Signs used for? No Pedestrians Signs are used to stop people walking into areas where pedestrian access could create risk, such as vehicle routes, loading areas, workshops or restricted entrances.
Is this the same as a no entry sign? Not exactly. This sign is specifically aimed at pedestrians, so it is clearer when the risk is foot traffic entering an unsuitable or unsafe route.
Where should I place the sign for best results? Place it before the decision point, not after it. People should see the instruction before they step into the restricted area.
Which size should I choose? Use smaller sizes for doors and close viewing, and larger sizes where people approach from a distance, such as yards, loading bays or traffic routes.
Can these signs be used outdoors? Yes, they can be used outdoors when you choose a suitable material and fixing method for the surface, exposure and how permanent the sign needs to be.

More ways to control pedestrian movement
For routes exposed to traffic or outdoor movement, compare post mounted no pedestrians signs where wall fixing is not practical. Useful beside entrances, yards and external approaches.
If visibility from vehicles matters, use reflective no pedestrians traffic signs for clearer roadside awareness. A strong option for darker yards, gates and vehicle routes.
For multiple repeated locations, choose no pedestrians allowed 6 pack signs across several doors or barriers. This helps keep the same message consistent across your premises.
Where the hazard is a blocked or unsafe route, add no thoroughfare pedestrian route signs to stop people walking through. Useful for service corridors, closed paths and controlled work areas.
For the wider range, review no pedestrians signs for workplaces before deciding on material or fixing. You can compare floor, wall, stanchion and road formats in one place.
