Security Signs

Clear security signs help businesses, property owners and site managers communicate security measures, access restrictions and potential hazards to employees, visitors, contractors and members of the public.

Our range of security warning signs includes notices for guard dogs, anti-climb paint, anti-climb fencing, razor wire, electric fencing, restricted areas, locked doors and gates, searches and other premises security measures. Suitable for workplaces, warehouses, factories, construction sites, shops, offices, farms, commercial premises and private property.

Made in Britain, Safety Sheep security signs are available in a choice of sizes and durable materials for indoor and outdoor use.

Security Warning Signs

Security warning signs provide clear notice of security measures or restrictions that people should be aware of before entering or approaching an area.

Signs can be used at entrances, gates, fences, doors, perimeter boundaries and other prominent locations to communicate warnings about guard dogs, anti-climb measures, electric fencing and restricted access.

Choose wording that accurately reflects the security measures present at your premises and position signs where they can be clearly seen before someone reaches the relevant area.

Guard Dog Warning Signs

Guard dog signs warn visitors and other people that dogs may be present on a property or within a secured area.

They can be positioned at entrances, gates, fences and perimeter boundaries to provide advance warning before someone enters the area. Choose a size and position that makes the message easy to see from the normal approach to the property.

Anti-Climb & Perimeter Security Signs

Where anti-climb measures are installed, appropriate warning signs can help make people aware of potential hazards associated with the security system.

Our range includes signs for anti-climb paint, anti-climb fencing, razor wire and other perimeter security measures for commercial and industrial premises.

Position warning signs prominently around the relevant boundary or security measure, considering all reasonable approaches to the area.

Electric Fence Warning Signs

Electric fence signs provide a visible warning that an electrified fence is present.

They are commonly used on farms, industrial premises, secured compounds and other locations where electric fencing forms part of the site's boundary or security arrangements.

Signs should be clearly visible and positioned appropriately around the electrified fence according to the particular installation and applicable requirements.

Keep Locked & Security Instruction Signs

Security signage can also communicate important instructions to employees, contractors and visitors.

Messages such as Keep Locked, Keep This Door Locked, Lock This Door and similar notices can help reinforce site-security procedures at doors, gates, storage areas and restricted locations.

Security signs should support appropriate access-control procedures rather than being relied upon as the sole security measure.

Restricted Access & Search Signs

Some workplaces and secured sites need to communicate access conditions or security procedures clearly.

Security notices can be used to identify restricted areas, inform visitors about searches or remind people of site-entry requirements. For broader access restrictions, our dedicated No Entry and access-sign ranges provide additional options for controlling and communicating access around a site.

Security Signs for Businesses

Businesses can use security signs as part of wider measures designed to protect premises, equipment, stock and restricted working areas.

Typical locations include:

• Warehouses and distribution centres
• Factories and industrial premises
• Shops and retail premises
• Offices and commercial buildings
• Construction sites
• Storage compounds and yards
• Farms and agricultural premises
• Schools and managed facilities
• Gates, fences and perimeter boundaries

The appropriate signs will depend on the security measures, access arrangements and hazards present at the individual site.

Security Signs for Private Property

Security signs can also be used around homes, estates, private roads, driveways, farms and other privately owned land.

Clearly positioned signs can communicate security warnings and access restrictions before visitors enter a property or approach a particular area.

For signs specifically relating to land ownership, trespassing and public access, explore our dedicated Private Land Signs range.

Where Should Security Signs Be Positioned?

Position security signs where people are likely to see them before encountering the relevant security measure, restriction or hazard.

Common locations include entrances, gates, fences, doors, perimeter boundaries, loading areas and access points.

Consider the direction people approach from, the viewing distance, lighting, potential obstructions and whether several entrances or access routes require separate signs.

Choosing the Right Security Sign

Start by identifying the exact warning, restriction or instruction you need to communicate.

Consider whether the sign will be used indoors or outdoors, how far away it needs to be read and the surface on which it will be mounted. Larger signs may be more appropriate for gates, fences and perimeter locations, while smaller notices can work well beside doors and internal access points.

For outdoor locations, choose a durable material appropriate for the expected weather exposure and required lifespan.

Security Signs & CCTV Signs

Security signs and CCTV signs can both support premises security, but they communicate different information.

General security signs warn about measures such as guard dogs, anti-climb systems, electric fencing, locked areas and access restrictions. CCTV signs specifically inform people that camera surveillance is taking place.

If your premises uses security cameras, explore our CCTV Signs collection for CCTV in operation signs, surveillance notices and other camera-monitoring signage.
