Have a question? We’re here to help.
Size is typically determined by your building’s “frontage.” In most Columbus commercial districts, you are allowed 1 to 2 square feet of sign area per linear foot of building frontage. For example, a shop with 30 feet of frontage may be eligible for a 30–60 square foot sign. We calculate your exact “Graphic Area” based on Chapter 3377 to maximize your brand’s presence.
Signage in the Short North is governed by the Short North Design Guidelines. The city encourages “artistic and creative” designs here, often favoring projecting blade signs and high-quality neon. Because this area overlaps with the Italian Village and Victorian Village commissions, we must secure a Certificate of Appropriateness before a permit can be issued.
Yes, ground-mounted monument signs are popular in areas like Easton, Polaris, and Dublin. These signs must typically be set back at least 10 feet from the public right-of-way. Height limits range from 6 feet in neighborhood zones to 35 feet in high-traffic corridors near I-270 or I-71. We provide the necessary structural engineering drawings required by the city for all freestanding installations.
Absolutely. We design interior wayfinding systems that meet both federal ADA standards and Ohio-specific building codes. This includes tactile lettering and Grade 2 Braille for “permanent room” signs, such as restrooms, exits, and office numbers. Our team ensures proper mounting heights and high-contrast colors for maximum accessibility in South High Street offices and beyond.
A professional-grade commercial vehicle wrap typically lasts between 5 to 7 years in the Columbus area. Because Ohio experiences significant temperature swings and road salt usage in the winter, we recommend using high-performance cast vinyl films like 3M Scotchcal or Avery Dennison. To maximize the lifespan of your fleet graphics, we also suggest adding a UV-protective laminate to prevent fading from sun exposure and choosing a “knifeless” installation technique to protect your vehicle’s OEM paint.
