No Admittance To Workshop Sign

The No Admittance To Workshop Sign clearly identifies workshop areas where entry is restricted to authorised personnel only. It provides an immediate visual warning that visitors, customers and unauthorised staff must not enter the workshop without permission.

Workshops often contain hazardous machinery, moving vehicles, power tools, welding operations, electrical equipment and other workplace hazards. Displaying a No Admittance To Workshop Sign helps reduce the risk of injury by preventing unauthorised people from entering potentially dangerous work areas.

This sign is commonly installed at workshop entrances, engineering facilities, fabrication shops, maintenance workshops, vehicle repair centres, manufacturing plants and industrial work areas where restricted access is required.

Suitable for workplaces throughout New Zealand, this sign helps improve workplace safety, supports access control procedures and reinforces health and safety requirements.

NZS/AS 1319:1994 advocates simplicity and clarity in safety signage. To be effective, they should be easy to read and interpret at a glance.

The Standard is about the use of legible text and appropriate, simple symbols.

By simplifying the message, it reduces the risk of misinterpretation, which increases the chances of the sign’s warning or instruction being followed.

Enhancing the signs visibility through placement and colour

Placement and visibility will play a crucial role in the efficiency of safety signs.

The standard states that signs must be positioned near the hazard they are warning about, which ensures that the safety message is relevant. Also it advocates the use of contrasting colours for the background and lettering. This attention to the colour scheme will increase visibility and readability from a reasonable distance, which ensures the message is accessible.
