Self Standing - Prohibition Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs - Trade Only Supplier
Self-standing prohibition signs are highly versatile safety tools designed to be placed temporarily in areas where specific actions are not allowed. Unlike wall-mounted signs, they are freestanding and portable, making them ideal for quickly marking restricted zones such as "No Entry," "No Smoking," or "No Mobile Phones" in dynamic or changing environments. This flexibility allows facilities to respond to evolving safety needs without permanent installation.
One of the key advantages of self-standing signs is their high visibility and mobility. Often placed at eye level on floors or pathways, they catch attention immediately—especially in high-traffic areas like lobbies, hallways, or construction zones. Their portable design allows staff to reposition them as needed, ensuring that prohibition messages are clearly communicated exactly where they’re most relevant.
These signs are particularly useful for temporary or event-based restrictions, such as during cleaning operations, maintenance work, or special functions. For example, a "No Entry" sign can be quickly placed in front of a restricted room or work zone and removed once the area is safe again. This helps prevent unauthorised access and reinforces safety protocols in real-time.
Finally, self-standing prohibition signs support regulatory compliance and incident prevention. By making safety rules clearly visible in fluid environments, they help reduce liability and ensure people are aware of boundaries. Their reusable, weather-resistant design also makes them a cost-effective solution for both indoor and outdoor use across industries like hospitality, healthcare, education, and construction.

Why get safety signs printed by Caledonia Signs?
1. Regulatory Compliance One of the primary reasons to have safety signs professionally printed is to ensure compliance with UK laws. The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 require that specific safety signs be used in workplaces to prevent accidents and injuries. Caledonia Signs understand these requirements and ensure your signs meet legal standards, including adherence to the BS EN ISO 7010 format for safety symbols. Adhering to the BS EN ISO 7010 format is crucial because it ensures safety signs are universally recognised and understood. The standard uses clearly defined symbols that have been tested for visibility and comprehension, making them effective even in high-stress situations or for individuals who do not speak the local language. This helps prevent accidents by enabling quick and correct responses to potential hazards. Many "pop up printers" don't fully understand the importance of ISO 7010. From a legal standpoint, compliance with ISO 7...>>> READ MORE >>>
