Lilian, the meaning is: "unauthorized access forbidden"

OK, but what about that "äga"? Isn't that "estate", "land"?

Well, yes, but in this context it seems to me that we are talking about a site. Am I wrong?

Yes, probably some place, since they are talking about protective shoes. But it doesn't say it's about a estate or site or even a place.
"No admittance for unauthorized persons."


You probably know better than me how to put it in English Lilian.

What would be more common for a sign in English would be:
"No admittance - authorised persons only"

Does that convey the original?

Old Swedish, in this case, att äga = to have
