Summary

In unincorporated Clark County, window and door signs are regulated as wall signs and can't cover more than 30% of the window or door surface they're mounted on.

City-specific rules exist: Henderson, Las Vegas, and North Las Vegas have their own window signs rules that differ from Clark County's county-level regulations. If you live in one of those cities, check the city-specific page instead.

Window or door signs shall not cover more than 30% of the window or door surface.

Full Breakdown

Clark County's Title 30 defines a wall sign as any sign displayed on a building facade, 'including on a window or door,' so storefront window signs fall under the wall sign standards in the Unified Development Code's permanent sign table. That table caps window or door signs at 30% coverage of the window or door surface, on top of the general wall sign area limits (5% of the building face in residential districts, 20% elsewhere, plus 10% more for channel letters). A sign permit is required under §30.05.01.B unless the display qualifies for one of the narrow exemptions, like internal signs not visible from a right-of-way. This only reaches unincorporated Clark County, which includes the Las Vegas Strip resorts in Paradise and Winchester townships; Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Boulder City and Mesquite enforce their own municipal sign codes.

Violations & Fines

Clark County can order a noncompliant sign brought into compliance or removed under §30.05.08.A; signs in the right-of-way or posing an immediate hazard may be impounded without notice, with the owner given 10 days' mailed notice to reclaim them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this cover the Las Vegas Strip?
Yes for the resort corridor itself. Las Vegas Boulevard South sits in unincorporated Paradise and Winchester townships, so this county rule applies there, not the City of Las Vegas code.
Is a window sign the same as a wall sign here?
Yes. Title 30 defines 'wall sign' as any sign on a building facade, including on a window or door, so window signs use the wall sign standards and the added 30% coverage cap.
