Unisex Toilets Signs
A Unisex Toilets Sign identifies shared washroom facilities with clear male and female pictograms and bold “Toilets” text. It helps staff, visitors and customers find the right door in offices, schools, shops, hospitality venues and public buildings, reducing hesitation at the point of entry.
Best Places to Fit This Toilet Sign
Place the sign on the toilet door, beside the entrance or on the final approach from a corridor. You want it visible before someone reaches the handle, so users do not pause, enter the wrong room or ask staff for directions during busy periods.
Viewing Distance Guidance
For this 200 x 150mm portrait sign, use it for close decision points rather than long-distance corridor guidance. A practical reading range is usually around 1–5 metres, depending on lighting, door colour, clutter nearby and whether users are moving quickly.
| Size option | Practical viewing range | Best placement |
|---|---|---|
| H 200 x W 150mm | Approx. 1–5 metres | Door face, entrance side wall or close corridor approach |
Expected User Behaviour After Fitting
Once installed in the right place, this sign changes behaviour at the door: people recognise the shared toilet facility quickly, choose confidently and avoid interrupting staff for simple facility questions.

Installation Guidance
❌ Do not fit it too low where bags, furniture or door handles block the view.
❌ Do not place it after the entrance point, as users need the answer before they reach the door.
❌ Do not mount it among posters or decorative graphics that compete for attention.
❌ Do not use it for accessible toilets unless the facility is also clearly identified as accessible.
❌ Do not use it as a directional arrow sign for distant corridors or multiple turns.
❌ Do not treat it as a legal safety sign for fire, hazard or emergency instructions.
✅ Fit at adult eye level on the door or the wall immediately beside the entrance.
✅ Clean and dry the surface before applying vinyl to improve adhesion.
✅ For rigid plastic, select fixings suitable for the wall or door material before installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Unisex Toilets Signs product right for a shared toilet? Yes. It is suited to toilets intended for shared use where you need a clear male and female symbol with the word “Toilets”.
Should I fit it on the door or beside the door? Use the door if the entrance is clearly visible. Use the adjacent wall if the door is often open, recessed or hard to see from the approach.
Should I choose rigid plastic or vinyl? Choose vinyl for smooth, clean surfaces where adhesive fitting is preferred. Choose rigid plastic where you want a more permanent sign that can be fixed to a door or wall.
Can this sign be used outdoors? Yes, the display area is listed as indoors/outdoors, but you should still fit it to a clean, stable surface where it will stay visible and secure.
Does this replace an accessible toilet sign? No. Use an accessible toilet sign where the facility is specifically intended to show wheelchair-accessible provision.
Is there an EN ISO 7010 code for this toilet sign? No. This is an information sign, not a warning, prohibition, mandatory, fire or emergency escape safety sign.

Compare inclusive toilet sign options
For a simpler individual option, compare with the single unisex toilet sign if you only need one clear door message. It suits smaller premises and straightforward washroom layouts.
For a more finished door presentation, look at unisex laser engraved acrylic toilet signs. They are useful where the sign needs to look neat in customer-facing areas.
If the toilet serves mixed users from a corridor, consider the mixed toilets projecting washroom sign for better side-on visibility. It helps people spot facilities before standing directly in front of the doorway.
To compare against female facility signs, view the female toilet and washroom sign category. This helps you keep toilet identification consistent across your building.
