Before you install in Avondale
These come from the City of Avondale and the State of Arizona. Each one changes how we plan a job here, so we check them before we quote.
In The BLVD, outdoor concert facilities and outdoor commercial recreation or entertainment uses in the Gateway and Park Avenue subdistricts may play music, but not between 11:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. Dance floors must close when the bar closes. This is the code text we read; the section was amended April 6, 2026.
Avondale lists variable message signs as prohibited unless the sign code explicitly allows them. Allowed ones must be static, with no video or animation, change no more than once every eight seconds, and dim automatically.
A sign inside a building within six feet of the window and meant to attract people outside counts as a window sign.
Avondale's list of electrical work exempt from a permit has three items, and low-voltage cabling is not one of them. The city has not said in writing that low-voltage work needs a permit, so we call Building Services before we quote.

Where we work in Avondale
The BLVD
The city calls The BLVD, south of I-10 and Avondale Boulevard, its main entrance and direct corridor to Phoenix Raceway, and the FY 2026-27 city budget funds more parking for new restaurants and entertainment. Bars and restaurants here need TV and video distribution and zoned sound that hold up under a crowd.
Phoenix Raceway and the I-10 corridor
Phoenix Raceway is at 7602 Jimmie Johnson Dr. Race weekends and other events create event audio and video work, and the freeway construction nearby is a good reason to add backup internet.
Old Town Avondale
Old Town had street reconstruction this year, the budget funds an Old Town Plaza, and signs in the Old Town Avondale Business district follow its design guide. Shops and restaurants here should check digital signage and LED walls against the sign code before they buy a screen.
Offices and shops across town
Offices need meeting rooms and control systems that staff can run without calling anyone. Retail shops add cameras and WiFi for card readers.
Questions about AV and security work in Avondale
Is there a decibel limit for patio music in Avondale?
Not in the noise section we read. Avondale makes unreasonably loud noise a misdemeanor and names sound systems that disturb people nearby, with no number and no quiet hours. In The BLVD, outdoor entertainment uses must stop music from 11:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.
Can I put a TV or LED screen in my window in Avondale?
It depends on what the screen is doing. A sign inside the building within six feet of the window and meant to attract people outside counts as a window sign, capped at 25 percent of the window. Screen signs also fall under the variable message sign rules. We ask Planning before we hang one.
Which building code does Avondale use?
The 2024 International Codes and the 2023 National Electrical Code, with Avondale amendments, effective January 1, 2026. The 2024 International Fire Code was adopted separately on July 6, 2026.
Does low-voltage cabling need a permit in Avondale?
Avondale's list of permit-exempt electrical work doesn't include low-voltage wiring, but the city hasn't said in writing that it needs one. We call Building Services at (623) 333-4000 before we quote.
What hours do you work?
Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM. Call (602) 769-7992 or request service to set up a site walkthrough.
