Pool Closed Signs

Hotels, apartment managers and homeowners use this sign when the pool is shut for repairs, water testing, a storm or a private event. Hang it on the gate so guests do not walk to a locked deck, and put the reopening time on the extra line, such as Reopens at 9 AM.

Where pool closed signs are used

A resort pool shut for a resurfacing job, a condo pool drained for a fix, a campground swim area closed after a lightning warning, or an apartment deck closed for a holiday cleaning all leave guests walking toward a locked gate. A property manager may hang one on the gate the day the work starts, and an owner might tape one to the deck entry. It stops the walk before someone reaches the closed deck.

Choosing the size and where to hang it

Tie it to the gate at about eye level, where a guest sees it before reaching the deck, then take it down once the pool reopens. The 24 by 18 in size fits a gate, while 12 by 18 in suits a narrow side gate. Choose aluminum outdoors, since it is rust-free. Plastic is light and handy for a short closure on a covered wall. Use zip ties or the holes, and check your state and local rules for how a closed pool must be posted.

Questions about pool closed signs

When should I put up a closed sign?

Post it as soon as you know the closure dates, so guests do not walk to a locked gate. Keep it up until the pool reopens, then take it down that day. Your local health code may set how a public pool must be posted when it is closed, so check it first.

Which colour is easiest to read from a gate?

White on red and black on yellow both are easy to read from a few steps off. Red suits a closure notice, and black on yellow reads quickly from a path. Pick the one that matches your other pool signs so guests learn the look.

What size should a closed sign be?

An 18 x 12 in landscape sign fits a gate rail. A 12 x 18 in portrait sign suits a narrow post or a door. Aluminum is the better pick for a closure that lasts weeks, and plastic is lighter for a short one.

What should I do when the pool reopens?

Take the sign down the day the pool is ready, and change the reopening line if the time moved. An old closed sign on a gate sends guests the wrong message. If the reopening time is uncertain, keep the sign up and type We will update this sign on the extra line.

Can I print the reopening day on the sign?

Type the day and time on the extra line, such as Open again Monday at 8 AM, and check the preview. A short line is easier to read at a gate. Only post a time you can keep, since guests plan their visit around it.
