When to use a keep out sign rather than a restriction sign

Use it when the honest answer is that nobody should be in there. An excavation, an asbestos removal area, a confined space, a structurally unsafe section, a zone under live testing - places where the hazard does not care who you are or what training you have. That is different from AUTHORISED PERSONNEL ONLY, which restricts by permission and accepts that some people will enter, and different again from NO ENTRY, which is a traffic instruction about direction. The danger header is the strongest of the AS 1319 hazard formats and its value depends on being rare. A site where KEEP OUT appears on every second door teaches people to walk past it. Reserve it for genuine exclusion, and back it with a physical barrier - a sign on an open gap is a suggestion.

Common uses
