Clear parking signs help businesses, landlords, property managers and site operators show drivers where they can park, identify restricted areas and reserve spaces for particular users.

Our range includes parking and car park signs for workplaces, offices, warehouses, residential developments, schools, shops, healthcare premises, private roads and other managed sites.

Choose from No Parking, Private Parking, Visitor, Customer, Residents, Reserved, Permit Holder, Disabled, EV and personalised parking signs in a range of sizes and materials.

No Parking Signs

No Parking signs help identify areas where vehicles should not be parked, including entrances, access routes, loading areas, gates and other locations where parked vehicles could cause an obstruction.

Choose wording appropriate to the restriction rather than assuming that one No Parking message is suitable for every situation.

Private Parking Signs

Private Parking signs help identify land and parking areas that are not available for unrestricted public use.

They can be used at private car parks, residential developments, business premises, private roads and other managed property.

Where parking is restricted to particular users, more specific wording such as Residents Only, Permit Holders Only or Customer Parking may communicate the requirement more clearly.

Visitor & Customer Parking Signs

Visitor and Customer Parking signs help reserve spaces for people visiting a business, organisation or residential property.

Clearly marked bays can reduce confusion and make it easier for visitors to identify where they should park when arriving at unfamiliar premises.

Residents & Permit Parking Signs

Residents and Permit Holder signs can help manage parking at apartment buildings, housing developments, private estates, workplaces and other sites where parking is restricted to authorised users.

Signs can be used at car park entrances or individual bays depending on how the parking area is managed.

Reserved Parking Signs

Reserved Parking signs clearly identify spaces allocated to particular people, departments, businesses or purposes.

They are useful for offices, warehouses, hotels, healthcare premises, schools and other locations where specific bays need to remain available.

Personalised signs can also be used to identify individual names, companies, departments or bay numbers.

Disabled & Accessible Parking Signs

Disabled parking signs help identify bays provided for disabled motorists and Blue Badge holders.

Position signs so designated spaces are easy to identify when drivers enter or move around the car park.

Where parking arrangements are privately managed, make sure the wording accurately reflects who is permitted to use the space and any conditions that apply.

EV Parking & Charging Signs

EV parking signs identify spaces provided for electric vehicles and charging.

They can help distinguish EV charging bays from general parking spaces and communicate restrictions such as electric vehicles only or parking while charging.

Clear signs are particularly useful where charging spaces sit within a larger workplace, retail or residential car park.

Custom Parking Signs

Standard wording will not suit every site.

Custom parking signs allow businesses, landlords and property managers to specify their own wording, bay numbers, company information or parking instructions.

Personalised signs can be particularly useful where spaces are allocated to individual businesses, residents, departments or vehicles.

Parking Signs for Businesses

Business car parks often need several types of parking signage rather than one general notice.

Depending on the site, this may include:

• Customer Parking
• Visitor Parking
• Staff Parking
• Reserved Parking
• Disabled Parking
• Loading and delivery areas
• No Parking areas
• EV charging bays
• Permit Holder spaces
• Directional parking signs

Consider the journey a driver takes from the site entrance to the parking space. Important restrictions and directions should be communicated before the driver reaches the point where they need to make a decision.

Parking Signs for Private Property

Parking signs can help owners and managers of private property communicate how parking areas should be used.

This can include identifying private parking, residents' spaces, visitor bays, allocated spaces and areas where parking is not permitted.

The wording should accurately reflect the parking arrangements in place.

If signage forms part of a formal private parking enforcement scheme, the signs used for that scheme need to communicate the relevant parking terms and should be consistent with the arrangements operated by the parking provider. A standard parking sign does not, by itself, automatically create a right to issue charges, clamp or remove vehicles.

Where Should Parking Signs Be Positioned?

Position parking signs where drivers can see and understand them before they need to act on the information.

Depending on the site, useful locations can include:

• Car park entrances
• Individual parking bays
• Walls alongside parking spaces
• Posts
• Gates
• Access roads
• Loading areas
• Pedestrian and vehicle junctions
• EV charging points

Avoid positioning signs where parked vehicles, vegetation, gates or other objects are likely to obscure them.

Larger sites may require several signs to communicate parking arrangements clearly throughout the car park.

Choosing the Right Parking Sign

Start with the parking behaviour or information you need to communicate.

Consider:

• Who is permitted to park?
• Is the space reserved?
• Is parking prohibited?
• Is a permit required?
• Is the bay for visitors or customers?
• Is it an EV charging space?
• Is personalised wording required?
• How far away will drivers need to read the sign?
• Will the sign be used outdoors?
• What mounting surface is available?

Specific wording is usually clearer than trying to communicate several different parking rules with one generic notice.

Choosing Your Parking Sign Material

Parking signs are frequently installed outdoors, so material choice is important.

Self-adhesive vinyl is useful for clean, smooth surfaces and suitable applications.

Rigid plastic provides a lightweight option for general signage.

Recycled plastic provides a durable rigid option for many workplace and private parking locations.

Aluminium composite provides a strong, weather-resistant option for longer-term outdoor installation.

Reflective materials can improve visibility where signs need to be seen in low-light conditions.

Choose the material according to the mounting location, expected weather exposure and how long the sign needs to remain in place.
