No Turnaround Signs
Homeowners on long private drives and farm operators with narrow lanes post no turnaround signs where there is no room to back out. The sign warns delivery drivers and visitors to plan their route before they reach a tight spot.

Where no turnaround signs are used
Owners of a long gravel drive post one at the first gate, where a truck driver would otherwise try to turn around in the yard. A rural mail route driver may see one at a bridge approach with no room to swing a vehicle. Church parking lots with a narrow back lane use one at the entrance to keep trucks from backing down it. The sign sits at the decision point, so a driver can plan the move before the lane tightens.
Choosing the size and where to hang it
Where the lane narrows and faces drivers as they arrive, the 24 by 18 inch size goes. The 12 by 18 inch size suits a gate post where a delivery truck stops. Plastic is light and works for a seasonal lane, while aluminum with holes in the top corners stands on a fixed post. Red on white reads strongly from a distance, so choose it for a long approach. Reflective aluminum is the call for a lane that is used after dark.
Questions about no turnaround signs
Where should the sign face?
Place it where a driver can read it before the turn, such as at the road end of a drive or just before a gate. Check the live preview to confirm the words read clearly at the size you choose.
What line should go under the words?
Private drive is the sample line, and it tells visitors the road is not public. You could also add a phone number or gate hours. Type your line in the builder and check it in the live preview before you order.
Black on white or white on red?
Black on white reads like a plain notice on a farm lane. White on red stands out more from a distance, which helps on a long drive.
Should the sign go on a gate or on a post?
A post set beside the lane works well, because the sign stays put when a gate swings open. Set it just inside the road edge so a vehicle waiting to turn does not hide it. Aluminum with corner holes bolts neatly to a post, while plastic can be tied on through its grommets.
Can I add a line about where to reverse?
You can use the extra line for a short direction, such as Use the field gate. Keep it to a few words so the two main words stay the focus. The live preview shows how the line sits beneath NO TURNAROUND before you order.
