Crafting New York's Most Iconic
Storefronts & Signage
Founded in New York, The Signs NY bridges architectural design, heavy-duty metal fabrication, and complex NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) permitting. We believe that your exterior signage is your business’s most valuable round-the-clock sales representative.
Unlike online sign brokers who take orders and outsource production to unverified third-party factories, we fabricate every sign directly inside our local New York facility. From precision CNC-cut aluminum channel letters to high-output Samsung LED wiring and weather-tested awnings, our artisans oversee every weld and trim cap.

In New York, illuminated exterior signs, projecting blade signs, or signs exceeding specific size limits may require permits from the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB). In historic landmark districts (e.g. Brooklyn Heights, SoHo, Greenwich Village), signs may also require Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) approval. Our in-house expediting team manages the entire process, including structural drawings, licensed engineer stamps, and DOB sign-offs, helping your New York business meet applicable regulations.
Our New York signs are engineered with IP67 waterproof-rated Samsung/Cree LED modules and corrosion-resistant powder-coated aluminum, requiring minimal ongoing maintenance. We recommend a gentle exterior face cleaning once or twice a year to remove urban soot and road grime. We also offer annual maintenance inspection plans covering power supply diagnostics, seal inspections, and face re-polishing.
All custom illuminated channel letters, front & back-lit signs, and light boxes include our comprehensive 5-Year Structural and Electrical Warranty. This covers LED module burnouts, transformer/power supply defects, and structural aluminum welds. 3M vehicle wraps include a 3-Year manufacturer guarantee against bubbling, cracking, and excessive color fading.
Modern high-efficiency LEDs have replaced traditional glass tube neon in many New York commercial applications. LEDs can consume significantly less electricity, operate on low-voltage 12V/24V power (improving safety and energy efficiency), and resist damage from winter freezes or facade vibrations. For New York businesses seeking a nostalgic aesthetic, we build 'Faux-Neon' silicone LED contour signs that replicate the vintage warm glow without fragile glass tubing.
