Since 2004, ABC Sidewalk Shed & Scaffolding has installed, maintained, and dismantled overhead protection and scaffolding across New York City, handling the DOB regulatory coordination that accompanies every installation. Our mission is direct: keep pedestrians safe on the sidewalk while vital construction and facade work proceeds above.
ABC Sidewalk Shed & Scaffolding is a full-service site protection contractor serving all five boroughs of New York City. We erect sidewalk sheds, supported pipe scaffolding, suspended scaffolding, jersey barriers, and temporary site fencing for property owners, managing agents, co-op and condo boards, and general contractors.
Turnkey installation, ongoing maintenance, permit renewal management under Local Law 48, and safe removal upon job completion.
Pipe, frame, and suspended scaffolding engineered for FISP / Local Law 11 facade inspections, masonry restoration, and new construction.
Heavy-duty temporary construction fencing and concrete jersey barriers for traffic and site boundary control.
Installing code-compliant protection to address unsafe conditions and coordinating applicable filings and corrective work to address DOB violations related to our site work.
Our emergency line is monitored 24/7. Response and arrival times depend on location, site conditions and crew availability.
We maintain the applicable company credentials for our work, including our DCWP Home Improvement Contractor licence. We coordinate the relevant DOB filings for projects we undertake. We carry $2 million in general liability insurance coverage, with Certificates of Insurance (COI) issued upon contract execution.
Our crews receive relevant safety training for their assigned work, including applicable NYC Department of Buildings scaffold training requirements.
Sidewalk sheds and scaffolding in NYC involve continuous administrative tracking, short-term permits, and local law compliance. We manage DOB filings and permit extension tracking for all equipment we install, giving property owners a single responsible point of contact from setup through removal.
Structural hazards don't stick to business hours. Our emergency line is monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, allowing us to mobilize field crews rapidly to safeguard hazardous building perimeters.

We do not make unrealistic promises about automatic DOB approvals or instant violation dismissals; municipal agencies retain final regulatory authority.
