= Panneaux « Poussez » et « Tirez » pour les portes (images et symboles) =

L'acte de pousser ou de tirer une porte n'est pas toujours simple. Pour les gens pressés il est facile de les confondre. Dans les grandes villes internationales il y aura toujours des visiteurs étrangers qui ne parlent pas la langue du pays. Indépendamment de la langue, une image est toujours plus visible et plus vite comprise que les mots.

A description so vivid or graphic as to suggest a mental image or give an accurate idea of something.

= Push Pull Image Images = Image - a reproduction or imitation of the form of a person or thing = Purpose of Definitions Page = The English language allows for a number of different words with similar meaning for a pictorial representation. In the case of Pictorial Push and Pull Signs this page will allow a route to the live Wikipedia page. = Re-inventing the wheel? = There are a number of discussions and ideas on the internet about Push Pull Symbols for Doors. If you have an idea about a Push and Pull Symbol for doors it is likely that a version of the idea is already on the web at your fingertips. = Arrows, 3D-Doors, Rectangles within Rectangles = These designs attract the Engineering mind. When it comes to market testing with the public they are completely confused. Images of this sort are more fitting in an intelligence test. = Pictures of just a hand / hand holding a bar = These designs attract the type of mind excellent at Maths and Physics. This type of mind will bring an equation or computer program down to its briefest logical form. This might be the briefest form, but not understandable by the general public. A hand on its own in the construction industry means STOP or DANGER. ie do not proceed. = Pictures with human like figures = The Public is used to "Running Man" for Fire Exits and for pictures of Men and Women for Restrooms. It seems that the reactions and understanding of push and pull signs with human figures are much more successful. = Description of the Bowed Doors Registered Design = Yellow Figure with black outline - easy to notice - better for poor eyesight Bowed doors - Gives the impression of a door moving and force being applied Striped doors - More balanced and aesthetically appealing Figure leaning forward - Gives the impression of pushing. Physiology as if pushing a car. Figure leaning backward - Gives the impression of pulling. Physiology as if pulling a rope. Single straight arm - Gives the impression of using force. Single arm makes the picture as simple as possible to understand. = Testing of understanding of Bowed Doors Design = A small scale test was done by a school teacher on a group of 8 year old children in July 2011. The results showed that the symbols were understandable without additional information. = Drawbacks of written push and pull signs = Often people don't notice them People confuse push and pull as both words share the first 2 letters and are both 4 letters long Not usable for people who don't speak the country's language Confusing for people with Dyslexia = Advantages of a pictorial sign = People notice pictures Quicker to understand Reduce annoyance trying to get in or out of a building Reduce wear and tear on doors and hinges because of pushing and pulling the wrong way.

= Push Pull Signs for Glass Doors - most common application = The main type of door which benefits from pictorial signage is the retail glass hinged door. Most small scale retail outlets are now moving to glass hinged doors so that it is possible to see people coming the other way and into the outlet itself. The reason why a push plate on one side and a pull bar on the other is not often used is that aesthetically a door would look unbalanced. In any case people are so used to pushing a door with a handle that this configuration is not guaranteed success to eliminate error on the pull side of the door. If there is only a push plate, it won't be possible to close the door on the push side if there is no automatic close mechanism.
