Before you install in Gilbert

Every item below comes from the Town of Gilbert or the State of Arizona. We check them before we quote, because each one changes how we plan the work.

Noise is measured at the neighbor

Gilbert takes its noise readings from inside the complainant's closed home or enclosed commercial suite. For a commercial neighbor the limit is 65 dB(A) from 5 AM to 10 PM and 55 dB(A) from 10 PM to 5 AM. For a home it is 55 and 45. On a zoning boundary the lower standard applies.

Screens in windows

Gilbert counts anything displayed within six feet of a first-floor window to attract people outside as a window sign, and caps window signs at 25% of the window area in Commercial districts. The Zoning Administrator decides whether a particular TV counts, so we ask before we hang a screen that faces out.

LED and digital signs

Flashing, blinking, animated and rotating lights on signs are banned, except for Changing Message Displays and Marquee Signs. Those are allowed on wall-mounted cabinet, marquee, monument, tower and freeway signs outside residential districts. No sign within 50 feet of single-family zoning may be lit.

Locked doors and the posted sign

Gilbert amends the locks-and-latches section of the 2018 building code. A readily visible, durable sign in 1-inch letters must go on the egress side of the door and read either 'THIS DOOR TO REMAIN UNLOCKED WHEN THIS SPACE IS OCCUPIED' or 'THIS DOOR MUST REMAIN UNLOCKED DURING BUSINESS HOURS'.

Satellite dishes

A dish of one meter or less is a permitted accessory use in every Gilbert base zoning district, but not in the front yard. A mast more than 12 feet above the roofline needs a building permit, and in the Heritage District the Town must get written notice first.

Digging before you cable

Arizona law bars excavation in a public street, right-of-way or utility easement until underground lines have been located. Operators must mark within two working days, and the markings are valid for fifteen working days. We schedule trenching, conduit and pole footings around that clock.

Where we work in Gilbert

The Heritage District

Downtown has over 30 restaurants and free public parking, and enough construction that the Town runs a 'Digging the District' site. With neighbors a wall away, commercial audio and TV distribution take planning.

Heritage Park

This 10-acre project at Gilbert Road and Juniper Avenue has about 47,000 square feet of retail and restaurants and a public square. The Town expects phase one to finish in winter 2026/2027. New tenants tend to need digital signage and sound.

Rivulon and the Loop 202 corridor

Rivulon is a $1 billion, 300-acre development along the Loop 202, bounded by Gilbert, Lindsay and Pecos Roads. Offices there need conference room AV, data cabling and door access.

Gateway Village Center

This is a zoning district for pedestrian-oriented retail, office, lodging and entertainment uses. Storefronts and venues may want LED video walls and event AV, and the sign code sets what you can show to the street.

Questions about AV and security work in Gilbert

Do I need a permit for patio speakers at my Gilbert restaurant?

We found no separate patio or outdoor-speaker permit in Gilbert's noise sections. The only speaker permit they describe covers loudspeakers attached to a vehicle. The noise limit does apply, and it is measured inside your neighbor's closed suite or home. For your address, the One Stop Shop answers at (480) 503-6700.

Does a TV in my front window count as a sign in Gilbert?

It can. Anything displayed within six feet of a first-floor window to attract people outside is a window sign, capped at 25% of the window area in Commercial districts. A game shown to people inside is a different case from a promo aimed at the sidewalk. The Zoning Administrator decides, so we ask before we hang it.

Which building code does Gilbert use?

The 2018 International Building Code and the 2017 National Electrical Code, with Gilbert amendments. The Town's permits page lists 2024-based amendments as drafted but not adopted, with adoption listed as coming soon January 2027. Until then, design to 2018.

Can I put an LED video wall on my storefront in Gilbert?

Maybe. Gilbert bans flashing, blinking and animated signs but allows Changing Message Displays on named sign types such as wall-mounted cabinet, monument and marquee signs. The brightness rules for these displays include photocell dimming, but they sit in a paragraph written for residential districts, so we ask Planning how they apply. The code has no separate video wall category, so we check the facade plan with Planning first.
