Overview

If "Accessible Toilet" needs saying clearly, this is the sign, and accessible toilet sign printing is what we do. It marks an accessible toilet or facility, and you will find it in public buildings, venues, shops and offices.

What the sign says

It reads "Accessible Toilet". White lettering on blue, with the wheelchair symbol at the top, so the meaning lands at a glance.

Putting it up

On the door, lined up with your other door signs. Door signs look tidiest at one height all the way along a corridor; around 1.4 to 1.7 metres from the floor is common.

Sizing your accessible toilet sign printing comes down to distance. Rule of thumb from ISO 3864-1: each 25 mm on the short side of the sign gives roughly a metre of reading distance. That makes 150 x 150 to about 6 m, 200 x 200 to about 8 m and 297 x 297 to about 12 m. Pick bigger for car parks, yards and long runs of corridor.

Accessible toilet sign printing: which material

For accessible toilet sign printing, pick the board to suit the spot:

  • 3mm Foamex, a rigid PVC foam board that screws or sticks up easily and is happiest indoors or out for a season
  • 3mm Dibond, aluminium skins on a solid core, the one to pick for a sign that stays outside for years
  • self-adhesive vinyl, which sticks flat to smooth walls, doors, glass and machine guards

Inside, Foamex or vinyl does the job. Outside for the long haul, go Dibond.

Small signs can go straight onto tiles or doors with the self-adhesive vinyl option.

The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 require enough toilets and washing facilities; good signs mean people can actually find them.

Got artwork? Upload it. No artwork? Use the online designer, or our paid artwork service (1 design, 2 rounds of changes). Either way a person looks over the file first, free. Each accessible toilet sign printing job is printed to order and sent out from the UK. We charge £7.95 to send it anywhere on the UK mainland, and nothing once your goods come to £100 or more after discounts. The Highlands add £10, and addresses in Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, Scilly or the Isle of Wight get a quote. Full details are on the delivery page.

Also worth a look: washroom and hygiene signs and everything in safety signs. The guide to safety sign colours covers the choice in more depth.

Which size do I need?

A safety sign must be large enough to read from where people will see it. Our conservative guide, based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1, is about 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25 mm of sign height (the shorter side). Use it with your own risk assessment.

SizeReadable from up to about
150 × 150 mm6 m
200 × 200 mm8 m
297 × 297 mm12 m

Well lit or internally lit signs can be read from further away; dim areas need larger signs.

Questions

Quick answers about accessible toilet sign printing.

How big should the Accessible Toilet sign be?

Think about the furthest point someone needs to read it from. For "Accessible Toilet", 150 × 150 mm for readers up to 6 m away, 200 × 200 mm for readers up to 8 m away and 297 × 297 mm for readers up to 12 m away. Those distances assume ordinary light, so if it is gloomy or people are driving past, step up one size.

Is there a standard pictogram that says "Accessible Toilet"?

No safety pictogram fits this wording, so the "Accessible Toilet" sign pairs the words with the familiar wheelchair access symbol, in white on blue.

Where do I fix the Accessible Toilet sign?

For "Accessible Toilet", the usual spot is on the door itself at the same height as your other door signs, plus a direction sign wherever the way is not obvious. Check nothing will stand in front of it, like open doors, stacked stock or parked vans.

Does the law say I must put up an Accessible Toilet sign?

The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 require suitable toilets and washing facilities. Clear door and direction signs help staff and visitors find them. Your risk assessment is what decides the exact positions for "Accessible Toilet".

How do I put the Accessible Toilet sign up?

On smooth walls and doors, sign-fixing tape is quickest; otherwise drill the board and screw it to a wall or post. The vinyl version is self-adhesive: press it onto a clean, dry, smooth surface.

Foamex, Dibond or vinyl: which should I choose?

Ask where it is going. Outdoors or somewhere it may get knocked: Dibond aluminium composite. Smooth doors, glass or machinery: self-adhesive vinyl. Anywhere else indoors: 3mm Foamex, which is light and easy to fix.

Asked by buyers

How cheaply can I get hold of the Accessible Toilet Sign?

Picked the way the page first loads, with 150 × 150 mm and self-adhesive vinyl, the Accessible Toilet Sign comes to £4.08. Any other mix of options, a faster turnaround included, gets its own price the moment you choose it, and that figure is what you pay at checkout. Only delivery is left to add. On its own the opening price of £4.08 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

Is delivery extra on top of the price of the Accessible Toilet Sign?

Send it to a UK mainland address for a flat £7.95, or for free when the goods in the basket add up to £100 or more after discounts; artwork and design charges do not count towards that. An order of just this at the opening price of £4.08 is under £100, so it pays the £7.95. We price delivery first for Northern Ireland and for the Isle of Wight, the Channel Islands, Scilly, the Scottish islands and the Isle of Man; Highland addresses on the mainland just pay £10 extra, one time per order. Choose Saver and this sign leaves us after 6 working days; Express brings that down to 2.

Which turnaround speeds can I choose for the Accessible Toilet Sign?

Allow 6 working days on Saver, 4 on Standard or 2 on Express before the Accessible Toilet Sign is handed to the courier, based on the options the page opens with. Weekends and bank holidays are not counted, and nothing starts until the order is paid and the artwork is confirmed. Pick another size or material and the days beside each speed update, sometimes by a day. After it leaves us, the courier normally delivers in one to three working days and you get the tracking link by email.

Which artwork services are offered with the Accessible Toilet Sign?

Several routes, all chosen under Artwork on this page. Send your own finished file (no charge), we set your words and logo on a tidy layout, called typesetting (£15), we design it from your brief (£35), we redraw a blurry or low quality logo as sharp vector art (£30) or we create a brand new logo (£50). Typesetting and design from a brief each come with one first draft and two rounds of changes. The fee is the same whatever quantity you order and shows separately in the basket. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. On this page, Accessible Toilet Sign starts from £4.08.

Which size of the Accessible Toilet Sign can people read from further away?

Rough reading distances for "Accessible Toilet": about 6 m for 150 × 150 mm, 8 m for 200 × 200 mm or 12 m for 297 × 297 mm. The rule of thumb behind them: each 25 mm of height buys roughly one metre of distance. If the light is poor, or people pass quickly on foot or at the wheel, go for the next size up. The figures use the distance factor from ISO 3864-1, and your own risk assessment should settle the final choice.

What message is an Accessible Toilet Sign giving?

This is a words-first design. No ISO 7010 symbol matches "Accessible Toilet", so the text does the talking, backed by the wheelchair access symbol. The design follows the text sign pattern, used to put a plain written instruction in front of people. Typical spots: the toilets at a cafe, a church hall or a sports club. Word for word, this sign says "Accessible Toilet".

Can I mix different safety signs in a single order?

You can. Each sign gets a separate basket line, with whatever size and board suit it, and you pay once at the end. Delivery is charged per order, not per sign: £7.95 to the UK mainland, or free once the goods come to £100 or more. For "Accessible Toilet" the sizes are 150 × 150, 200 × 200 and 297 × 297 mm.

Could you price a 200 × 200 mm sign for me?

From £4.49, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3mm Foamex at £25.97, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £38.35 and self-adhesive vinyl at £4.49. Add £7.95 for UK mainland delivery, or nothing at all once the goods reach £100. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all.

I need several signs, some in different sizes. How do I buy them?

Each price on the page is for a single sign in the size and material chosen. Put the number you want in the box beside Add to basket and the total multiplies. For a different size or material, add it as a separate line; the basket keeps them apart. An artwork fee is charged once per line, whatever the quantity, and choosing to reuse the artwork from another item in your basket costs nothing more. Very large runs can go through Get a quote. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Before delivery, this sign costs from £4.08.

I am not a business. Can I buy just one sign?

Of course. Anyone can order, with no trade account and no minimum beyond one. Prices for the Accessible Toilet Sign begin at £4.08, checkout works without an account and you pay by card. Parents, clubs, churches and small shops order single items all the time. On its own the opening price of £4.08 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

And the largest sign, 297 × 297 mm: how much is that one?

From £5.61, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Material by material, it is 3mm Foamex at £29.87, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £43.62 and self-adhesive vinyl at £5.61. Add £7.95 for UK mainland delivery, or nothing at all once the goods reach £100. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you.

Could the total go up after I reach the checkout?

No surprises: what the page shows for this sign is the goods figure you pay at checkout. Delivery is the one extra, £7.95 to a UK mainland address, and it drops away when the goods reach £100 after discounts. Paid artwork help shows up as its own basket line, so you can check each amount before paying. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you.

Our event is close. Can the Accessible Toilet Sign be rushed?

Yes. Choose Express and the Accessible Toilet Sign can be on the way in 2 working days on the opening option, for £5.45, where Saver is £4.08 and takes 6 days. Then give the courier one to three working days, and send the artwork with the order, because the clock does not run until the file is sorted. If the date is really tight, message us on the Contact page before paying and we will tell you honestly.

Do you send to Northern Ireland or the islands?

Yes, anywhere in the UK, though the price differs by area. A Highlands postcode on the mainland pays the usual rate plus a single £10 for the order, and that £10 still applies when the rest of the delivery is free. Northern Ireland gets a price worked out first, as do the Isle of Wight, the Channel Islands, Scilly, the Scottish islands and the Isle of Man: send your postcode through our Get a quote page or the Contact page. We cannot send anything outside the UK. Before delivery, this sign costs from £4.08. Choose Saver and this sign leaves us after 6 working days; Express brings that down to 2.

Can I send a Word or Canva file for the Accessible Toilet Sign?

Word, PowerPoint and Canva are a fair place to start, but export a high quality PDF from them before uploading. Our first choice is always a PDF at the ordered size with fonts embedded or outlined, followed by AI, EPS or SVG, then high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF. You can add three files, each up to 25 MB, on this page, or upload them after ordering from the email we send. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all.

Can the wording on an Accessible Toilet Sign be changed, or our logo added?

Yes. To reword "Accessible Toilet" or add a logo, pick the typesetting option (£15) for your text and logo on a clean layout, or the design-from-your-brief option (£35), then send us the details. Both paid options include one first draft and two rounds of changes. Uploading your own print-ready file costs nothing, and someone on our team looks it over before printing. Leave the safety symbol and its colours untouched, though: altering them makes the meaning less clear. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

I am not a designer. What if the file I send turns out to be unusable?

That is why a person looks at every upload before anything is printed. Typical snags are a document at the wrong size, missing bleed, blurry photos and words sitting too near the trim. If we spot one, we explain what to change and you send a fresh file. Or hand it over to us: for £15 our typesetting places your wording and logo on a neat layout, with one first draft and two rounds of changes. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as 150 × 150 mm.

Someone else is putting our file together. How does it reach you?

Easiest route: they send the finished file to whoever placed the order, and it gets uploaded after ordering. Up to 3 files of 25 MB each are fine. They can also reach us through the Contact page, as long as they quote your order number so it lands on the right job. Production waits for the checked file, so a late file means a later dispatch date. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as 150 × 150 mm. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all.

How many pixels does a photo need to print well on this sign?

Close-up items need about 300 dpi at full size. So a 297 × 297 mm layout wants about 3,508 by 3,508 pixels. Keep lettering and logos as vectors if you can. An image copied off a web page or a social post rarely has enough pixels; if yours looks likely to print soft, our file check flags it. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all.

Will anyone look at my file before it is printed?

Yes, a real person on our team opens every uploaded file and checks the size, the bleed and the resolution. If something is off, you hear from us before anything is made. We print what you send, though, so read the spelling, numbers and dates yourself as well. Making starts when the order and the file are both confirmed. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all.

Does the Accessible Toilet Sign come in a peel-and-stick version?

It does. Pick self-adhesive vinyl from the material list and it comes as a peel-off sticker. That is handy on a glass shop door, a classroom cupboard, a machine or a smooth painted wall, anywhere screwing a board up would be awkward. Wipe the spot, let it dry, then press it down from the centre outwards to push the air away. On rough brick or dusty surfaces, a board will hold better. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. For reference, Accessible Toilet Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being 150 × 150 mm.

What thickness is the Accessible Toilet Sign, and does it feel sturdy?

Three millimetres, whichever board you go for. Pick self-adhesive vinyl instead and you get a thin film that lies flat against whatever you stick it to. Dibond feels stiff because a plastic core is sandwiched between two thin aluminium sheets, yet it is still simple to screw or stick up. Foamex is foamed PVC, so it weighs very little in the hand. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Material choices for Accessible Toilet Sign: 3mm Foamex, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or self-adhesive vinyl.

Do cafes, restaurants and food businesses buy the Accessible Toilet Sign from you?

For kitchens, counters and dining areas, look under Food & Hospitality in the shop: the Accessible Toilet Sign is listed there. Prices begin at £4.08; 3 sizes are listed, starting at 150 × 150 mm; the material choices are self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. People buying for that kind of work often add Accessible Toilet and Baby Changing Sign or Postcards. Put everything in one order and delivery is free at £100 or more.

We are putting up a full set of signs at our premises. Which ones sit well next to this one?

A school corridor, a shop floor or a club house rarely needs just one notice. Two that often go up beside this one: Boys Toilets Sign and Baby Changing Sign. Keep every sign in one board type so the set matches, look up sizes and prices on each page, then check out once: one delivery charge for the whole basket, free over £100 of goods. You will also find this sign in our Food & Hospitality section.

Will an Accessible Toilet Sign cope with rain and wind outdoors?

Rain is rarely the problem for "Accessible Toilet"; sunshine is. Every printed sign fades slowly in strong sun, so make a habit of checking outdoor ones and renew any that have faded too far. Dibond is the board to pick for a permanent outdoor home. Foamex copes with a covered spot but prefers life indoors. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

It gets dark early in winter. Can people still read the Accessible Toilet Sign in the evening?

Not in pitch darkness. Pick Foamex, Dibond or vinyl sticker and it is the same story: nothing on this page reflects headlights or glows by itself. Fix it where a street light, porch light or security lamp already shines, or fit a small light above it. Where a risk assessment asks for photoluminescent or reflective signs, those need to come from a specialist maker rather than from us. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Before delivery, this sign costs from £4.08.

What is the easiest way to put up an Accessible Toilet Sign?

To mount "Accessible Toilet" on a wall, drill a hole near each corner of the board and screw it on with a washer under each head; stop once it feels snug, as Foamex in particular does not like being overtightened. Where drilling is not wanted, say on a painted door or a smooth wall inside, double-sided foam tape or sticky pads hold it well. For a fence, make a hole at each corner and loop cable ties through. The vinyl one needs no tools: peel off the backing and press it on once the surface has been wiped and dried. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.

Does the material change the price of the Accessible Toilet Sign?

Taking the smallest size, 150 × 150 mm, as the example: self-adhesive vinyl at £4.08, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £36.46 and 3mm Foamex at £24.56. Larger sizes follow a similar pattern, and the full grid sits in the size table further up the page. Think about where it is going first: a cheap material in the wrong spot can end up costing more. Before delivery, this sign costs from £4.08. On this page, Accessible Toilet Sign starts from £4.08.

I am not sure which options to pick for this sign. Can someone advise me?

Yes. Type your question into the box on this page and a real person replies. Mention where the sign will be used, how long you need it to last and the date you need it by. Answered questions may be shown on the page for other buyers, so leave personal details out of it. Private questions can go through the Contact page, and anything the options here cannot price can go through the Get a quote page. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all.

I have spotted a typo after paying. Can it be fixed?

Tell us quickly through the Contact page, quoting your order number. Before production starts we can take a corrected file, or cancel and refund the whole order. After that it cannot be changed. A print that matches your finished design or the file you sent is not a fault, so it pays to read every word and number before you order. Before delivery, this sign costs from £4.08.

Can I pay for the Accessible Toilet Sign by card as a guest?

Yes. Guest checkout is fine, and any debit or credit card works. Stripe processes the payment for us, which keeps your card number off our system entirely. We begin making this sign once the payment has cleared and the artwork is confirmed. Large or out of the ordinary jobs can be quoted first from the Get a quote page. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all.

Do I pay delivery on each item in my basket?

No. One delivery charge covers the whole basket, so adding the Accessible Toilet Sign to other items does not add a second one. It is £7.95 to a UK mainland address and nothing once the goods total £100 after any discount code. Using the same design on two items? Pick the reuse-artwork option on the second one and you pay the artwork fee just once. Each line keeps its own size and quantity.

Next year we will want the same sign again. Is reordering easy?

Very. Choose the same product with the same options and upload the same file, and it is made again exactly as before. Save the final print file somewhere safe, as that makes a repeat order a two-minute job. Before you repeat it, read the wording again: dates, prices, opening times and contact details are the things that go out of date. Before delivery, this sign costs from £4.08. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you.

The parcel turned up damaged. How do I sort it out?

Take photos of the damage and the box it came in, then send them through the contact form within 48 hours of delivery, with your order number. Hold on to the item rather than posting it back; we reply and arrange a reprint or refund. This sits alongside your legal rights, which the returns page covers. Choose Saver and this sign leaves us after 6 working days; Express brings that down to 2. Before delivery, this sign costs from £4.08.

Bleed and dpi mean nothing to me. Can I still get printing done?

Yes. You do not need any print knowledge to order the Accessible Toilet Sign. Send us your words and logo with the typesetting option (£15) and we build the layout, then you get a first draft and two rounds of changes. Whatever you choose, a real person looks at the file before printing.

Does an Accessible Toilet Sign come upright or wide?

"Accessible Toilet" is laid out in square format, available as 150 × 150, 200 × 200 and 297 × 297 mm. A square layout suits doors, cupboards and small patches of wall. Need an upright or wide version instead? Choose one of the design options and we will rearrange it for you.

What if 297 × 297 mm is still too small for the Accessible Toilet Sign?

We can still help. Put the size you need, the material and the quantity into the quote request form and we will send a price. For reference, the listed range ends at 297 × 297 mm, and that size costs £5.61 or more. Bear in mind that anything past A0 goes by oversize courier, a one-off £15 on the order.

The spot gets full sun all afternoon. Could this sign warp in the heat?

Foamex can, Dibond will not. A big, thin Foamex board warms up in direct sun and may bow, especially with fixings only at the corners. Dibond has aluminium faces and keeps its shape, so it is the sensible pick for a long-term outdoor sign. With Foamex, more fixings across a flat wall, or a thicker board, helps it stay straight. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. On this page, Accessible Toilet Sign starts from £4.08.

Can I cut this sign down to size, or drill fixing holes, at home?

Yes, with ordinary tools. For Foamex or Correx, a sharp craft knife and a straight metal edge work: a few light passes, then snap or cut through. Dibond has aluminium skins and needs a fine-toothed saw. Drill slowly with a standard bit and stay at least 10 mm from any edge. Any cutting removes some of the bleed, so plan the layout with that in mind. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex. Sizes for this sign go from 150 × 150 mm at the small end to 297 × 297 mm, 3 in all. On this page, Accessible Toilet Sign starts from £4.08.

What is the safest way to clean this sign?

Treat "Accessible Toilet" gently: a soft cloth and soapy warm water, a rinse, then a dry. Strong cleaners, solvents and scourers can take the shine off the print or lift it, so leave them in the cupboard. Store spares flat, not leaning, to stop them bowing. For this sign, the material can be self-adhesive vinyl, 3mm Dibond aluminium composite or 3mm Foamex.
