Restricted Left Entry-1 Symbol Meaning
The ⛠ symbol is named “RESTRICTED LEFT ENTRY-1” and has the code point U+26E0. Visually, it’s used to communicate that an entry point is restricted, with an emphasis on the left side. In practical layouts, this can mean a left-side door, entrance lane, or pathway is not allowed for general access while other routes may be available. You’ll often see it in contexts like wayfinding signage, venue instructions, and interface hints where directional or lane-specific restrictions are important. Because it’s a standardized Unicode character, it’s suitable for consistent usage across modern apps and documents.
