Overview

This prohibition sign makes it plain who is allowed to park in which spaces. Typical homes for it are loading bays, driveways, yards and private car parks. Our no parking except residents sign printing is made to order in the size and board you choose.

Boards for no parking except residents sign printing

For no parking except residents sign printing, pick the board to suit the spot:

  • 3.5mm Correx, the fluted plastic board: light, waterproof and cheap to replace, which is why it is the site-sign favourite
  • 5mm Foamex, the thicker foam board that stays flatter once you go up to the bigger sizes
  • 3mm Dibond, aluminium skins on a solid core, the one to pick for a sign that stays outside for years

Correx for temporary jobs, Foamex for indoors, Dibond for anything staying outside for years.

The message

It reads "No Parking Except Residents". Red ring with a bar through it means "do not". People read it before they read the words. The layout is a red ring and bar, with the wording on a white panel, plus the ISO 7010 P001 symbol (general prohibition sign).

Where to fix it

At the car park entrance and again at the bays it covers. In a car park, signs do most good at the entrance and wherever drivers slow down, so they are read before anyone parks.

The right size for no parking except residents sign printing depends on the reading 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 A3 to about 12 m, A2 to about 17 m and A1 to about 24 m. Long corridors, yards and car parks need the bigger sizes.

On private land the signs are effectively your terms of use. If a parking company runs the car park, check the wording and sizes they need as well.

The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 set the look of a "do not" sign: a black symbol on white inside a red ring with a diagonal bar.

Upload your own file, lay it out in the online designer, or hand it to our paid artwork service, which includes 1 design and 2 rounds of changes. A person gives every file a free check first. Every no parking except residents sign printing order is made to order and dispatched from the UK.

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
A3 (297 × 420 mm)12 m
A2 (420 × 594 mm)17 m
A1 (594 × 841 mm)24 m

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

Questions

Quick answers about no parking except residents sign printing.

Which size of No Parking Except Residents sign can be read from across the room or yard?

Measure the distance first, then match it: 12 m calls for A3 (297 × 420 mm), 17 m calls for A2 (420 × 594 mm) and 24 m calls for A1 (594 × 841 mm). Traffic, dim corners or glare all justify going one size bigger. The largest, A1 (594 × 841 mm), is the choice for wide open spaces.

Is the symbol on this sign an ISO 7010 one?

Yes: P001, General prohibition sign. The "No Parking Except Residents" text sits alongside it, and the pictogram is taken from public domain artwork.

Where do I fix the No Parking Except Residents sign?

For "No Parking Except Residents", the usual spot is at the car park entrance and at the bays it applies to. Fix it where it will not be hidden by doors, deliveries or vehicles.

Am I legally required to display "No Parking Except Residents"?

No law requires one on private land, but the signs are how you set the terms for anyone who parks there. If a parking operator runs the site for you, check their signage rules too. Your risk assessment is what decides the exact positions.

How do I put the No Parking Except Residents 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.

Dibond, Correx or Foamex: which is right?

For a temporary job, Correx is the lowest cost and still light and waterproof. For a sign that stays outdoors long term, Dibond aluminium composite is the one. Keep Foamex for sheltered places.

How soon will the No Parking Except Residents sign reach me?

Standard takes 3 working days to make, or Express 2 working days. After that, allow 1 to 3 working days with the courier; you get tracking by email. Mainland UK delivery adds £7.95 to the basket, and nothing once the goods reach £100 after any discount code.

Asked by buyers

How cheaply can I get hold of the No Parking Except Residents Sign?

Picked the way the page first loads, with A3 (297 × 420 mm) and 3.5mm Correx, the No Parking Except Residents Sign comes to £26.07. 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 £26.07 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

Which turnaround speeds can I choose for the No Parking Except Residents Sign?

Allow 5 working days on Saver, 3 on Standard or 2 on Express before the No Parking Except Residents 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 No Parking Except Residents 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. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

Which size of the No Parking Except Residents Sign can people read from further away?

Rough reading distances for "No Parking Except Residents": about 12 m for A3, 17 m for A2 or 24 m for A1. 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. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all.

What message is a No Parking Except Residents Sign giving?

Start with the symbol on "No Parking Except Residents". P001 is the ISO 7010 pictogram for general prohibition sign, so even someone without much English gets the gist at a glance. The design follows the prohibition sign pattern (a red ring with a red bar across it), used to stop people doing something. That colour and shape code is laid down by the 1996 Safety Signs and Signals Regulations. Typical spots: the car park at a church, a gym, a pub or a block of flats.

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. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. On its opening option, No Parking Except Residents Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Could you price an A2 (420 × 594 mm) sign for me?

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.

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 £26.07. For reference, No Parking Except Residents Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 (297 × 420 mm).

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 "No Parking Except Residents" the sizes are A3, A2 and A1. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.07.

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 No Parking Except Residents Sign begin at £26.07, 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 £26.07 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

Our event is close. Can the No Parking Except Residents Sign be rushed?

Yes. Choose Express and the No Parking Except Residents Sign can be on the way in 2 working days on the opening option, for £34.78, where Saver is £26.07 and takes 5 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.

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. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

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

Close-up items need about 300 dpi at full size. So an A1 (594 × 841 mm) layout wants about 7,016 by 9,933 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. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

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. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 (297 × 420 mm). For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. For reference, No Parking Except Residents Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 (297 × 420 mm).

Can I send a Word or Canva file for the No Parking Except Residents 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 A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

Can the wording on a No Parking Except Residents Sign be changed, or our logo added?

Yes. To reword "No Parking Except Residents" 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. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all.

What thickness is the No Parking Except Residents Sign, and does it feel sturdy?

That depends on the board you tick: Correx at 3.5 mm, Foamex at 5 mm and Dibond at 3 mm. 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Material choices for No Parking Except Residents Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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: No Parking Sign and Visitor Entrance 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. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

It gets dark early in winter. Can people still read the No Parking Except Residents Sign in the evening?

Not in pitch darkness. Pick Correx, Foamex or Dibond 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. On its opening option, No Parking Except Residents Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Will a No Parking Except Residents Sign cope with rain and wind outdoors?

Rain is rarely the problem for "No Parking Except Residents"; 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. Correx is waterproof and suits temporary outdoor use. Foamex copes with a covered spot but prefers life indoors. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

What is the easiest way to put up a No Parking Except Residents Sign?

To mount "No Parking Except Residents" 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. The Correx version is simplest cable tied to a fence or fixed to a post. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.

Does the material change the price of the No Parking Except Residents Sign?

Taking the smallest size, A3 (297 × 420 mm), as the example: 3mm Dibond aluminium composite at £47.35, 5mm Foamex at £30.28 and 3.5mm Correx at £26.07. 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 £26.07. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

Do we legally have to display a No Parking Except Residents Sign?

Your risk assessment answers that one for "No Parking Except Residents". Where it shows a risk still remains after other steps, the 1996 Safety Signs and Signals Regulations say an employer must signpost it, and that applies to a cafe with two staff as much as a factory. Signs back up the other measures you take; they are never a substitute for them. The symbol on this sign follows ISO 7010, reference P001.

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 A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.07. Material choices for No Parking Except Residents Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Can I send this sign back if I no longer need it?

If it arrives faulty, damaged or not what you ordered, yes: under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 we reprint or refund. A change of mind is different. Each order is made to your specification, and reg. 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 takes those goods out of the 14-day right to cancel. Before production starts, though, you can cancel for all your money back. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

We need a few different designs. Do they each need their own order?

No. Each design goes into the basket as a separate line with its own file or online design, and you pay for them all in one checkout. Delivery is counted once for the whole order and costs nothing when the goods reach £100. If two lines share the same artwork, pick the artwork option that reuses a file already in your basket, so any design fee is only paid once. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.07. For reference, No Parking Except Residents Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 (297 × 420 mm).

Do I pay delivery on each item in my basket?

No. One delivery charge covers the whole basket, so adding the No Parking Except Residents 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.

How do I work out how many No Parking Except Residents signs to order?

Picture someone arriving for the first time. Every door they could come through, every approach to the risk and every corner where the route bends is a place for a sign. Large sites and long corridors usually need repeats, with bigger versions where people read from a distance. Put matching signs on a single basket line and raise the quantity; different sizes or materials go on lines of their own. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.07. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. On its opening option, No Parking Except Residents Sign leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Our treasurer needs a receipt for the accounts. What do we get?

Keep the order confirmation email we send: it itemises the purchase and the payment, and works as a plain receipt for your records. The total at checkout for this sign is the goods price on the page plus delivery, so the email matches what left the account. Need something more formal for an audit or a grant claim? Message us from the Contact page with your order number. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

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. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.07. Material choices for No Parking Except Residents Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

I am ordering this sign for a school or charity. Do I need to open an account?

No account is needed. Guest checkout lets a parent, volunteer or club secretary order once and pay by debit or credit card through Stripe. The price you see is the price you pay at checkout, and the confirmation email you receive lists the items and the amount paid for your records. If the committee needs a price agreed before anyone pays, the Get a quote page is the better starting point. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.07. Material choices for No Parking Except Residents Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

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 5 working days; Express brings that down to 2. Before delivery, this sign costs from £26.07. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

Can the No Parking Except Residents Sign carry wording in two languages, for example English and Welsh?

Yes. Choose the typesetting option (£15) and send us the words in every language you want on it. That covers one first draft and two rounds of changes. We lay out the text exactly as you supply it but we do not translate, so have the translation done first. Leave the symbol and colours as they are, so the meaning is clear whichever language someone reads. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 (297 × 420 mm). For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Material choices for No Parking Except Residents Sign: 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex or 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.

Some of our visitors have poor eyesight. Will this sign be easy for them to read?

Three things help most: strong contrast between the words and the background, a plain bold font, and a size that matches how far away people will be. Our standard safety sign layouts use the high-contrast colour pairings laid down for safety signs. Mount the sign at eye height, where it is well lit and not catching glare, and keep the message short. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Make the artwork for this sign the same size as the one you order, such as A3 (297 × 420 mm). For reference, No Parking Except Residents Sign is listed in 3 sizes, the smallest being A3 (297 × 420 mm).

Does a No Parking Except Residents Sign come upright or wide?

"No Parking Except Residents" is laid out in portrait format, available as A3, A2 and A1. Upright layouts fit doors, posts and narrow bits of wall. Need it turned the other way? Choose one of the design options and we will rearrange it for you. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all.

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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

Could the No Parking Except Residents Sign go on a door, say an office or classroom door?

Start with the position: eye level, on the push side or on the wall next to the frame, so the message is still visible with the door open. Fix it with double-sided foam tape or screws. A 5mm Foamex board on foam tape also sits well on a flat door. On a fire door, get the go-ahead from whoever looks after the building before any screws go in. For this sign, the material can be 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx. Sizes for this sign go from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at the small end to A1 (594 × 841 mm), 3 in all. On this page, No Parking Except Residents Sign starts from £26.07.

What is the safest way to clean this sign?

Treat "No Parking Except Residents" 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 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, 5mm Foamex or 3.5mm Correx.
