Public Information Signs

Public Information Signs provide clear, professional messaging for doors, entrances and key areas across your premises. This range includes stainless steel no smoking signs, staff only notices, toilet symbols, push and pull plates, and open/closed and opening hours displays. Ideal for restaurants, cafes, bars, hotels and offices, they help guests and staff navigate quickly and safely. Durable construction and easy-to-read symbols support hygiene, compliance and a consistent front-of-house presentation.

• Stainless steel door signs for ladies, gents and combined restroom facilities to guide customers with clear iconography.
• No smoking and smoking prohibition signs to support health, safety and legal compliance in indoor and outdoor areas.
• Staff only and access control signs to separate back-of-house kitchens, stores and offices from public areas.
• Push and pull door plates that reduce confusion at busy entrances and improve customer flow.
• Open/closed and adjustable opening hours displays to keep trading times visible at a glance.
• Robust, easy-clean finishes suitable for high-traffic hospitality, retail and corporate environments.

How to choose the right Public Information Signs

• Match each sign to its location, such as entrances, toilets, smoking areas and staff-only doors, so messages are always where they are needed.
• Consider sign size and symbol visibility for long corridors, dim lighting or outdoor use where guests view from a distance.
• Choose stainless steel or similarly robust finishes for busy hospitality sites that demand durability and a professional look.
• Plan a consistent set of icons and wording across your venue to support brand standards and reduce confusion for guests.
• For shops, cafes and bars, include opening hours and open/closed signs to clearly communicate trading times to passers-by.
• Check any local safety or smoking regulations and ensure your signage set covers all mandatory notices.

Care and maintenance

• Wipe signs regularly with a soft cloth and mild detergent to remove fingerprints, grease and dust without damaging the finish.
• Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals on stainless steel surfaces to prevent scratching and dulling.
• Inspect fixings and adhesive pads periodically, tightening or replacing them to keep signs securely mounted.
• Clean glass doors and surrounding areas at the same time as the signs to maintain overall visibility and presentation.
• Replace any faded, dented or vandalised signs promptly so safety and directional messages remain clear.
• For outdoor signs, check for weather-related wear and reposition or upgrade if exposure reduces legibility.
