Disabled Access Sign

Use this sign where you need to say "Disabled Access" clearly. It reserves parking or drop-off space for disabled drivers and passengers, and is commonly fitted in car parks at shops, offices, surgeries and venues. The design uses clean black text on a white background with a border.

The wording "Disabled Access" is set in large, high-contrast lettering so it reads quickly.

The legal background: door and information signs are not a legal requirement in themselves, but clear signs help visitors find their way and keep staff-only areas private.

You can have it printed on 3mm Foamex (rigid PVC foam board), light and easy to fix indoors or for short-term outdoor use, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, rigid and weatherproof for long-term outdoor use and self-adhesive vinyl for smooth walls, doors, glass and equipment. Indoors, Foamex or vinyl is usually all you need.

Sizes and viewing distance: A4 (210 x 297 mm) (reads at about 8 m); A3 (297 x 420 mm) (reads at about 12 m); A2 (420 x 594 mm) (reads at about 17 m); A1 (594 x 841 mm) (reads at about 24 m). As a guide we allow about 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25mm of sign height, based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1, so choose a bigger size for long corridors, yards and car parks.

Where to put it: At the head of the bay, facing drivers as they pull in.
