Trespass Sign

In order to protect our property and properly inform all who would enter of our rights, it is important (particularly today) to place No Entry signs on each entry gate to your property, and keep your gates closed.

This sign must be addressed to both persons and entities as this covers both an individual and any public / corporate official.

A person may enter through your gate and proceed to your front door, however any indication that entry is not permitted means the person is now under accusation of trespass.
“The policy of the law is to protect the possession of property and the privacy and security of its occupier. A person who enters the property of another must justify that entry by showing that he or she either entered with the consent of the occupier or otherwise had lawful authority to enter the premises…”

This is the sign we have placed at our 2 entrances.
