Prohibition No Smoking Beyond This Point Sign

Prohibition No Smoking Beyond This Point Sign

Clearly identify the point where smoking is no longer permitted with our No Smoking Beyond This Point Sign. Combining the recognised no-smoking symbol with clear wording, this sign helps staff, contractors and visitors understand exactly where your smoke-free area begins.

It is particularly useful where smoking may be permitted in one part of a site but prohibited beyond a defined entrance, gate, walkway or boundary.

Ideal for workplaces, factories, warehouses, commercial buildings, healthcare facilities, schools, accommodation facilities and other controlled areas throughout New Zealand.

Professionally manufactured in New Zealand and available in a range of materials and sizes to suit your installation.

What’s the difference between this and a standard No Smoking Sign?

A standard No Smoking Sign identifies an area where smoking isn’t allowed. No Smoking Beyond This Point is particularly useful at a boundary or entrance because it tells people that the smoking restriction applies from that point onwards.

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.
