Barricades and Scaffolding Graphics
Construction sites can be dangerous, which means that it is often important to have some type of barricade to keep unwanted visitors away. Barriers like fences and barricade walls can shield the construction mess from the public eye and prevent those passing by of putting themselves in danger. But these barricades can also be an eye sore to look at and, in many cases, represent unused real estate that would otherwise be directly in the eye-line of the public. That represents an opportunity for savvy businesses that are willing to go the extra mile by investing in or selling access to barricade wraps.
What Are Barricade Wraps?
Barricade wraps are very large vinyl signs installed on barricades that are typically built to block views of and public access to a construction area. Although a temporary form of signage, barricade wraps are often installed in high traffic areas along the street or in shopping malls, so a lot of people will see your logo or message many times.
Barricades can be installed indoors and outdoors, and accordingly vary in construction and material used to create them. Chain link fencing and plywood are common for outdoor sites and dry wall for indoor sites, such as at shopping malls. Whether indoors or outdoors, a vinyl wrap looks great and is durable in the face of weather, general wear and tear, and fading.
What Kind Of Barricade Wraps Are Available?
Signs NYC’s barricade wraps are essentially very large vinyl banners. Vinyl is an extremely versatile, durable, and lightweight material that is easy to customize and install on relatively flat surfaces like barricades. Standard weight is 13 ounces, but other varieties like heavy duty 5 ounce vinyl or premium quality 18 ounce vinyl are also available. We can recommend the best type and weight of vinyl depending on how and where you’re going to use it.
Our large format printing allows us to print in high quality whatever colors, graphics, photographs, logos, and more you need with precision. This can be a difficult kind of sign to produce because of its size, but our specialized equipment and years of experience make it possible for us to provide you with just the barricade wrap you’re looking for.

What Features Do Barricade Wraps Have?
Many times barricade wraps are made for an already present barricade. However, if you don’t have a barricade fence, wall, or other structure, we can provide four foot tall plywood frames on which to display your wrap. These are great for shielding a building entrance, an area of a store that’s been damaged or is undergoing an upgrade or repair, and more. Like all of our signs, we can offer high levels of customization for our wraps. Some of the features we offer to make yours look even better include:
Seamless Printing
With wraps up to 16 feet high, we can print the design right to the edges to give it a clean, smooth, professional look.
Finishing
Wrap vinyl can be given a glossy or matte finish. Before deciding, consider what your intention for the wrap is. If you want it to show up better in photos, matte finish prevents glare and dirt or smudging. However, a glossy finish can make the colors or details in the design pop more.
White Vinyl
The vinyl we make our wraps with is only available in white, so that any color included on it shows up more accurately and vividly.
Mesh Vinyl
Our mesh vinyl is engineered with tiny perforations that let air pass through easily. This reduces wind pressure on the wrap, making it ideal for high-rise scaffolding and outdoor environments where stability matters.
Grommets
We can add grommets to the edge of your wrap at an interval of every two feet. This enables the weight to be evenly distributed when it’s hung up for display and avoids a baggy or unevenly positioned area of the wrap. Standard grommets are available in white, black, or silver.
Pole Pockets
Pole pockets are sewn sleeves on the top or bottom of the wrap that allow poles or rods to slide through. They create a smooth, tight display and are perfect for large wraps that need even tension.
Hemmed Edges
To strengthen the perimeter of your wrap, we apply hemmed edges that resist tearing and fraying. This added durability helps the wrap maintain its shape and hold up better during extended installations.
Laminating
Added lamination film and other forms of weather proofing can ensure that your wrap will last during a construction project that’s expected to be lengthy or a period of the year that typically has more severe weather.
No matter what details or custom features you want your wrap to have, we can work with you. There are very few limits to what we can customize for you, and we want you to be happy with the final results.
Why Scaffolding Wraps Are Used?
Barricade wraps are a great way to turn a barricade into something that works for you. You can show people what is being built, advertise your business, or even sell barricades as ad space to potential customers. Perhaps the most popular way to use barricade wraps is to help people visualize what will be there in the future.
- Protection: Having a barrier in place between a work area and the sidewalk or road in a place with heavy foot traffic prevents the general public from wandering into an area where they might be injured, like a construction site. It also lets construction workers know to be alert.
- Privacy: Barricade wraps reduce distractions on your workers and help ensure that your team can work in peace without constant eyes upon them.
- Advertisement: Barricades are unused, valuable real estate for advertising a business or project, and so these wraps can build public anticipation for your build, or be sold to other companies as a way to use the space for their marketing needs.
Scaffolding Wraps With a Purpose Beyond Coverage
- Decoration: If there’s just a small area of a business that needs repair or if you want to block the view of a parade or show getting prepared, you can use a purely decorative design to enhance the aesthetics of the area.
- Information: Your wrap can include details about the length of the construction, what construction company is carrying it out, when the store will be open, and more.
You can put that blank space to work with photographs, graphics, text, and logos that let future customers know what the construction is working towards or what is available to the general public. This builds anticipation before opening day, encouraging them to actively plan to come back instead of unconsciously always associating the area with noisy and unattractive construction work.
