This can also have the verb in ーて form in front of はいけない/はけません can't it?

I'm just leaving a note because there's no indication of JLPT level for this grammar point.

It's N5 in other resources.

ないでください is more of a request to not do something. For example べないでください would be a request not to eat, "please don't eat". はいけない/はいけません is more of a "must not do".
