A large blaze in Brisbane's southeast has prompted police to declare a public safety emergency and impose a broad exclusion zone.

Emergency services were called to a Hasp Street business in Seventeen Mile Rocks shortly after 5pm on Friday following reports of a fire.

An emergency was declared just after 5.50pm, with boundaries imposed encompassing Seventeen Mile Rocks Rd, Oldfield Rd and Staple Street.

"Members of the public are advised to avoid the area and those within the exclusion zone are asked to remain indoors until further notice," police said in a statement.
