DOB Signs

Job Site Signs for Contractors – Safety & Compliance

For example, in the construction industry, signs are important to provide safety, communication, and adherence to laws and regulations. Many of the signs that are required by the DOB are those that will allow the general public and the inspectors to be informed about different construction activities being carried out. The construction work signs that are provided by us at NYCITY SIGNS are of high standards and meet the requirements of the law and guidelines in NYC.

NYCITY SIGNS provides a wide variety of construction permits including demolition permits, construction signs, hard hat signs, sidewalk closure signs, among others. All of the dob compliance signs made by us are of high standards and quality.

Common DOB Sign Types & Requirements – What You Need to Know?

The NYC Department of Buildings requires specific dob signs to be displayed on active job sites at all times. One of the most important DOB required signs is the Work In Progress (WIP) sign, a key part of NYC building code signage. It must be installed on every street-facing side to ensure full construction compliance.

Common DOB-Required Signs:

Work In Progress Signs (WIP Signs)

Displays project details and contractor information.

Building Construction Signs

Notifies the public about the ongoing construction.

Safety & Warning Signs

Hard Hat Area" and "No Unauthorized Entry" signs for worker protection.

Sidewalk Closure Notices

Alerts pedestrians about detours or safety hazards.

OSHA Compliance Signs

Ensures job site safety standards are met.

Permit & Inspection Signs

Shows DOB permits and inspection details onsite.

NYCITY SIGNS provides fully compliant DOB signs, ensuring that all font sizes, colors, and readability requirements are met.

Required DOB Signs for Construction Sites

The New York City Department of Building (NYC DOB) requires specific types of signs to be placed at each construction site. For example, before even starting construction, every contractor must put up Work in Progress Signs – sometimes called a WIP Sign on any side facing the street (corner lots require at least 2 signs). There are also many other types of dob compliance signage, including:

Hard Hat Area Sign
Building Construction Signs
Construction Regulation Signs
Sidewalk Closed Signs
What's Going on Here Signs
Reflective Signs, and More

Many warning signs are required depending on the project, and some signs may not be specifically required by the DOB, but are still important safety signs for both legal and ethical reasons. Many construction companies consult the list of OSHA construction signs that are used on these types of projects to get a better idea of the signs needed. At NYCITY SIGNS, we have several decades of experience with construction signs and can also direct you to those that you need. We offer several different materials for these safety signs, including:
