Police can restrict access to a premise or limit someone's movement under the "caretaking" function if the situation dictates that a failure to do so might result in harm coming to someone or there is a significant risk to property. For instance, if a gas leak was suspected as coming from within a house, the police could force an evacuation and/or keep people from re-entering the house until the situation was made safe. They can do this for a "reasonable" amount of time, and what is "reasonable" is dictated by the situation.
Additional: In addition to the situations clearly described above; if your home is the scene of an active ongoing investigation or incident, you may be barred to prevent your interference with the investigation or the conatamination of the scene and/or possible evidence.
