No Smoking Post Mount Signs
No Smoking Post Mount Signs give you a clear, portable smoking prohibition message for posts, gates, fences and entrance approaches. They help site managers, landlords and workplace teams stop smoking before they reach restricted areas, reducing confusion, fire risk and exposure to smoke.
Where No Smoking Post Mount Signs Work Best
You should install these signs on approach routes where people decide whether to smoke, such as entrance posts, perimeter gates, car park boundaries, outdoor queues, smoking control points and wire fencing. Good visibility prevents the excuse that the rule was unclear.
Practical Viewing Distance Guidance
For a 400 x 300mm sign, position it where people can read the red prohibition symbol and “No smoking” message before reaching the restricted area. In most outdoor settings, keep the main approach view within about 5–10 metres.
| Size option | Best practical reading range | Typical placement |
|---|---|---|
| H 400 x W 300mm | Approx. 5–10 metres | Posts, gates, fences and entrance approaches |
What Changes After These Signs Are Fitted
Once installed at the decision point, the sign helps you reduce casual smoking in the wrong place, guide visitors before they enter controlled areas and make site rules easier to enforce without repeated verbal reminders.
