Building Management Signs

Residences in New York City — which are either multi-unit or in which the owner does not live on the premises — that are required to register as HPD buildings must also have specific signage. These notices, known as HPD signs, must be displayed in the certain specified locations according to the Housing Maintenance Code.

Co-op And Condominium Management Sign Makers

Signs are a critical tool for managing a building. Signs are what help keep people safe, direct people to their next destination, and know exactly where they are and where they are going at all times.

Every building, in nearly every room, uses signs to share information, warnings, and more to those nearby. Some of these signs may even be legally required by the NYC DOB, the fire department, and more.

BUILDING SIGNS CAN HELP WITH:

Industries That Use Building Management Signs

Building management signs are essential for safety, compliance, and smooth navigation in shared or multi-unit properties.
Here’s how various industries use them:

Property Companies

Office towers and mixed-use properties need lobby signs, suite plaques, wayfinding signs, and ADA-compliant directories to move tenants and visitors through the building.

Residential Buildings

Apartments and condos use lobby signs, floor and unit numbers, mailroom signs, and amenity signage to guide residents and guests through shared spaces.

Educational Facilities

Schools and training centers need room signs, department signs, directional signs, and ADA signs to help students and staff navigate hallways and floors.

Healthcare Facilities

Medical and dental offices need clean, ADA-compliant signs for exam rooms, waiting areas, and directional wayfinding that keep patients moving with less confusion.

Retail and Mixed-Use Buildings

Retail spaces use indoor signs to guide shoppers, mark departments, promote products, and reinforce the store layout.

Industrial & Warehouses

Warehouses use department signs, restricted area notices, safety compliance signs, and floor markers to keep operations organized and safe.

Construction & Contractors

Active job sites need safety notice signs, site ID signs, contractor info boards, and NYC Department of Buildings compliance postings.

Restaurants & Hospitality

Restaurants and hotels use interior signage for entrance areas, compliance notices, and branded wall displays that match the space.

What Are Building Management Signs?

Some residential and commercial facilities like co-op and condo buildings require Building Management signage mandated by the DOB, and the fire department of New York ( FDNY), HPD or ADA, to show who owns or is responsible for a building, the fire safety plan, and other necessary information.

This sort of signage can be customized according to the building interiors and generally display the apartment number on the doorframe, the floor numbers, emergency exits, warnings, and dangers. These are only a few examples of the signs that are mandated by the Housing Preservation Department.

They are also helpful in navigating people through the facility, they can easily brand a company/builder, and keep people safe by displaying the precautionary signs. Signs NYC can manufacture all popular building management signs required in New York City.

Katherine Gonzales

Wonderful & seamless experience with SignsNY! From start to finish, they were super communicative & helpful explaining the process. They were thorough & professional, from coordinating logistics to the onsite team for installation. We had them install frosting on our conference rooms in our office & they look fabulous--just what we wanted! I would recommend them to anyone & if we ever need similar services, I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again.

Savannah Monaco

The best! Super helpful and very fast when I need them in a pinch.

Megan McKenna

Needed urgent vinyl adhesive window clings for a branding project with a tight turnaround and SignsNY was the only place that didn't laugh at me when I told them we needed them in the same day. They executed quickly and communication was top notch throughout the process!

Baila Manne

Extremely responsive and efficient. Easy and a pleasure to deal with.

Kiana Jennings

The fastest signage turnaround I’ve seen in New York! The on-site team was professional, flexible, and great to work with. They collaborated with us through digital renderings to ensure the best format for our signage and delivered an excellent final result. Highly recommend!

Margarita Kosheleva

We’ve been working with this printing company for years, and the service has always been excellent! The team is professional, responsive, and always delivers high-quality printing. Turnaround time is fast, and they consistently go above and beyond to make sure everything looks perfect. Highly recommend!

Bart Beckermann

This was a very frustrating experience, a huge waste of time, energy and money. I had some work done from them a few years ago and had a good experience, so I decided to work with them again. I wish that I didn’t. Hamza, who handled my project, would only communicate by email and refused to have a short conversation by phone even though I requested it over 5 times. A simple phone call would have saved everyone a lot of time and energy. There were so many miscommunications about many things. When I got the sign it was very flimsy and thin with air bubbles in the finish. They agreed to replace it. The one they brought to replace it had a grayed out, grainy finish. For $550, I was expecting better quality. They said they would take back the signs and refund it, but I can’t operate my business without any signs and do not have the bandwidth to go through the whole process with another company at the moment, so I am taking a loss. I will have to throw the sandwich board sign away because it is so thin and flimsy and gets blown down by the wind several times per day. I am very disappointed with the communication, the service and the quality of the signs. If you use this company, I hope that you have better luck than I did. I also recommend that you insist on having a phone conversation with them before doing business. Only communicating by email did not work. It was a huge waste of time and energy. They did their best, it was just a bad job.

Michael Anthony

After comparing several sign companies, I confidently chose Signs NY. Their competitive pricing, combined with their exceptional quality, made them the clear winner. The sign they created for my restaurant is stunning and has garnered numerous compliments.

We worked with Hamza and his team for months as we geared up to open our bakery. They were helpful, professional, quick to respond, clear communicators, and made sure everything was PERFECT before even addressing payment - something that we really appreciated as small business owners! We couldn't be happier with the painted signage up top and metallic details on the windows. Thank you Hamza and thank you Signs NY!

Ryan Winter

Had a great experience with this company getting vinyl signage made for my cafe. They were prompt, communicative, and the product looks great.
