Please do not hold elevator dooes open ( 5x5 inch silver)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

“PLEASE DO NOT HOLD ELEVATOR DOORS OPEN – AS THE DOORS WILL BECOME INOPERABLE” Sign – 5"x5" Brushed Silver Aluminum – Self-Adhesive – Protect Elevator Health

This professionally designed 5” x 5” elevator notice sign serves a dual purpose: it clearly warns users not to hold the elevator doors open and explains the reason – to avoid permanent mechanical damage and malfunctions. The straightforward message promotes responsible elevator use and helps extend the lifespan of the door operator system.

Constructed from durable 1 mm brushed aluminum, the sign is lightweight yet strong, designed for long-term use in residential, commercial, and industrial properties. It features bold, easy-to-read black lettering on a silver background, with a sleek, professional finish that blends into modern and classic interiors alike.

With rounded corners (8 mm radius) and double-sided adhesive tape pre-installed, installation takes seconds and requires no tools.

?️ WHY THIS SIGN IS IMPORTANT

1. PREVENTS DOOR MOTOR DAMAGE
   Holding elevator doors open strains the motor and operator system, leading to frequent faults, automatic shutdowns, or costly repairs. This sign informs riders of the direct consequence: inoperable doors.
2. PROMOTES ELEVATOR HEALTH & LONGEVITY
   Routine misuse can shorten the life of elevator components. A visible warning like this protects mechanical integrity and reduces downtime, leading to long-term cost savings.
3. EDUCATES WITH PURPOSE
   Unlike generic warnings, this sign includes the reason behind the instruction, improving compliance by educating tenants, staff, and visitors.
4. SUPPORTS BUILDING MAINTENANCE POLICIES
   Clear signage reduces wear-and-tear-related complaints and helps maintenance teams track preventable damage incidents.
5. AESTHETIC + FUNCTIONAL
   The brushed silver design is sleek and unobtrusive, making it suitable for modern high-rises, condos, hotels, or commercial office buildings.
