FAQs

Have a question? We’re here to help.

Yes. Even temporary “A-frame” signs require compliance with Article 13 of the UDO. They must be placed within 15 feet of your primary entrance, maintain a 5-foot sidewalk clearance for ADA accessibility, and cannot exceed 6 square feet per side. Banners also require a temporary sign permit and are typically limited to 30–60 days of display per year.

Skyline signs are premium branding placed on the top floor of buildings at least 80 feet in height. Charlotte allows only one skyline sign per facade, and they must be internally illuminated. We specialize in the high-altitude engineering and “structural-attachment” permits required for Uptown high-rises.

Signs in Charlotte’s local historic districts (like Dilworth, Wilmore, or Fourth Ward) require a Certificate of Appropriateness (COA). The HDC prioritizes traditional materials like wood, metal, or stone. While neon is often permitted, internally lit plastic “cabinet” signs are generally discouraged in favor of external “gooseneck” lighting or halo-lit letters.

Yes, but with strict “static time” rules. A message must remain still for at least 8 seconds before an instantaneous transition (no scrolling or flashing). In 2026, Charlotte code also requires an automatic dimmer to ensure the sign does not exceed brightness standards during the evening hours.

We exclusively use automotive-grade high-gloss pigments and UV-rated overlaminates. For the Charlotte climate, we recommend Aluminum Composite Material (ACM) over wood to prevent rotting from high humidity. Our LEDs are IP67-rated to withstand the heavy seasonal downpours and “wet-bulb” temperatures common in the Piedmont.

Absolutely. Every freestanding sign we install in Mecklenburg County is engineered to meet the NC State Building Code wind-load requirements (typically 90–115 mph gust ratings). We provide the sealed engineering drawings required by the Charlotte Land Development Center for all ground-mounted projects.
