How a South Brunswick Sign Permit Is Put Together
South Brunswick asks for one application for every sign, each with two copies of its drawings and a $60 fee. A building with two wall signs and a door sign is three applications.
1
Use the Postal Town
The form asks for the mailing town, such as Monmouth Junction, Kendall Park or Dayton, not South Brunswick.
2
Sealed Drawings
Wall sign elevations with every dimension and the percentage of the wall, signed and sealed by a New Jersey licensed design professional.
3
Plot Plan for Ground Signs
The sign located on the site with its setback from the property line and the road centerline.
4
Board Approvals
If the Planning Board or Zoning Board approved the site, the file number and resolution go with the application.
Warehouses and Offices
Signs for Distribution and Office Buildings
South Brunswick has a lot of office and industrial space along Route 1 and off Route 130, where drivers, visitors and employees all need to find a different door. A good sign package shows the building name and address where drivers can read it from the road. Then it guides trucks to the docks and visitors to the main entrance.
One scope note. We do not offer pylon or monument signs. Larger South Brunswick properties are made identifiable with wall mounted building signs, channel letters, dimensional lettering, entrance graphics, directional signs and window graphics instead.
We make exterior building letters, dock door numbers, traffic and parking signs, interior wayfinding and egress maps. The application names the installer on the record, and for our jobs that is our own licensed and insured crew.

Grand Opening Signs in South Brunswick
A new business can put up one temporary grand opening sign, but the window is short.
In the industrial, office, research, commercial and professional office districts, one grand opening sign is allowed for up to 30 days within the first four months after the certificate of occupancy. A ground sign may be up to 32 square feet and 6 feet tall, a wall sign up to 100 square feet. It needs its own zoning permit with start and end dates, so we prepare its drawings alongside the permanent signs.

Frequently asked questions about signs in South Brunswick
Do I need a permit for a sign in South Brunswick?
South Brunswick requires a separate sign permit application for every sign, each with two copies of its plans or drawings. The fee is $60 per sign. (Sign Permit Application.) We prepare the drawings and details the application asks for, and help you or your landlord file it.
How long does a sign project take in South Brunswick?
Fabrication time depends on the sign, but the variable that usually moves the date most is municipal approval. A flat panel or vinyl job can move quickly. An illuminated sign that needs permits and an electrical inspection takes longer. We give a schedule after the survey, once we know which approvals apply.
What kinds of signs do you make for South Brunswick businesses?
Storefront and building signage, channel letters, illuminated cabinets, interior and ADA signage, wayfinding, window and wall graphics, and vehicle graphics. If you are not sure which suits the site, the survey usually settles it.
Can you replace just the face of an existing sign in South Brunswick?
Often yes, when the cabinet's structure, size, location and electrical condition are still sound. Replacing a face can still count as new signage under some ordinances, so we check whether the existing sign conforms before quoting a reface.
Do you work with landlords and property managers in South Brunswick?
Regularly. Lease sign criteria are often stricter than the town's rules, and both have to be cleared, so we read the criteria alongside the ordinance before a design is finalized.
