Authorised personnel only sign, or keep out?

The difference is about permission versus danger, and it changes who the sign is talking to. AUTHORISED PERSONNEL ONLY says the area is restricted to people with the right training, authority or equipment - a plant room, a switchroom, a chemical store, a server room. Some people may enter; most may not. KEEP OUT says nobody should be in there at all, usually because of an immediate hazard. Using "authorised personnel only" where you mean "keep out" invites people to decide for themselves whether they count as authorised, and most people quietly conclude they do. Be explicit about who qualifies if it is not obvious, and remember the sign restricts by notice only. Where the risk is serious, the lock is the control and the sign is the explanation.

Common uses
