Every city writes its own sign rules. In St. Louis, sign permits are issued by the city's building or planning department (or by St. Louis County for properties in unincorporated areas), and allowances for size, height, setbacks, illumination and digital displays depend on the zoning district and the street the property faces. Signs visible from interstates and state highways may also need state outdoor-advertising review. We confirm the rules for your parcel before design starts, so the sign you approve is the sign that gets permitted.

St. Louis FAQ
Common questions about St. Louis sign projects
Does American LED Signage serve St. Louis, MO?
Yes. We design, permit, fabricate and install commercial LED signs in St. Louis and nearby communities including St. Charles, Florissant, Chesterfield, O'Fallon, Kirkwood, Belleville and Clayton, plus the rest of Missouri.
Do I need a permit for a business sign in St. Louis?
In most cases, yes. Permanent signs, and almost all illuminated and freestanding signs, need a sign permit from the City of St. Louis (or St. Louis County for unincorporated areas). Many signs also need an electrical permit. We prepare the drawings and handle the submittal.
How long do sign permits take in St. Louis?
It depends on the sign type, the zoning district, whether a variance or design review is needed, and the city's current workload. Simple wall signs move fastest; freestanding signs with engineering take longer. We give you a project-specific timeline with your quote.
How much does an LED sign cost in St. Louis?
We don't publish prices because every sign is custom. Cost depends on size, sign type, illumination, materials, engineering and foundation, electrical work, permits and installation access. Request a free quote and we'll price your exact project.
Can I put an LED message center on my sign in St. Louis?
Often, yes, but electronic message displays are regulated: many cities limit brightness, message hold time, animation and where digital signs are allowed. We check St. Louis's rules for your property before design.
Do you repair existing signs in St. Louis?
Yes. We repair and maintain existing signs in St. Louis, including LED retrofits of older fluorescent and neon signs, face replacement, power supply and module replacement, and storm damage repair.
