Prohibition Signs

Whether you’re a business owner, the manager of a park, or a campground company, you have both the right and the responsibility to maintain a certain level of safety for your guests and employees. In the case of parks, hiking trails, and campgrounds, you may also have a responsibility to the area wildlife. You can exercise that right by enacting rules that prohibit certain behaviors and items from the premises. The most important factor when implementing these rules is promoting them – rules can only be followed, after all, when they are made clear! With Prohibition Signs from American Sign Letters, you can let everyone know what you expect…and what you won’t tolerate.

Enforce Your Mandates
Whether you’re interested in banning campfires, barring alcohol from your worksite, or demanding that people pick up after themselves and their pets, you’ll want an enforcement mechanism at your disposal. That’s what makes Prohibition Signs so effective. Not only do you lay out the rules for all employees and guests, you also put yourself in a position to enforce consequences if these rules are violated. In many areas, you are perfectly within your rights to ask someone to leave if they violate your posted prohibitions. In fact, a person who knowingly violates your rules is regarded as a trespasser in many jurisdictions, giving you the power to have them removed by force. Check with your local law enforcement officials to be sure, but posting Prohibition Signs gives you a clear advantage when it comes to enforcing your rules.

Discourage Many Unwanted Behaviors
Using the stock Prohibition Signs in our inventory, you can immediately discourage many of the unwanted behaviors you might be experiencing at your campground or workplace. These include prohibitions on smoking, alcohol use, illegal campfires, littering, hunting, fishing, the use of all-terrain vehicles, and much more. In other areas of our site, you can avail yourself of other Prohibition Signs that are catered towards specific circumstances (No Parking, for example). And if you can’t find the exact sign you need, don’t worry! Give us a call or email us, and we’ll make you a custom sign that prohibits virtually anything you want.

Regulatory Requirements
If you’re thinking of putting up Prohibition Signs in your workplace, you may want to make sure that your signs meet OSHA standards before purchasing. The truth is, in this case, that OSHA has no specific requirements when it comes to posting this type of signage. There is information in the ANSI handbook about safety signage in general, which encourages the use of the standard pictogram (the item or behavior in question, circled in red and crossed with a single red line). But if you’re comfortable using a combination of pictures and text, any of the Prohibition Signs you find here at American Sign Letters will be effective at getting the job done.
