Description
Designate playground zones as dog-free areas while permitting dogs elsewhere in the park. This sign protects children and play equipment from contamination and disturbance, allowing councils to balance dog-friendly policies with child safety. Three sizes (225×300 mm, 300×450 mm, 450×600 mm) accommodate different installation points—from playground entry gates to perimeter signage. The prohibition pictogram is universally understood. Polypropylene suits temporary or seasonal parks; aluminium delivers long-term durability; Colorbond integrates with steel structures. Pre-drilled holes enable straightforward mounting. Councils managing multi-location parks benefit from bulk discounts. We ship Australia-wide from Sydney, supporting consistent playground safety signage across your entire estate.
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.

Frequently asked
Does this sign mean dogs are banned from the whole park?
No, it restricts dogs from the playground equipment area only. Other park zones may allow dogs on leads or off-lead depending on your council's broader dog policy.
What size should I use at the playground gate?
Available sizes are 225 x 300mm (Small), 300 x 450mm (Medium), 450 x 600mm (Large). Viewing-distance notes are a practical selection aid, not a substitute for checking the approach distance, lighting, mounting position, wording and site risk assessment.
Can I combine this with a 'Dogs On Leads' sign for other areas?
Yes, many parks use both signs—'No Dogs' at playgrounds and 'Keep On Leads' elsewhere. We can coordinate sizing and material for visual consistency.
How durable is this in high-traffic parks?
Aluminium and Colorbond withstand heavy foot traffic and weather for 5+ years; polypropylene lasts 2–3 years. Choose based on your park's usage intensity and maintenance budget.
