STRIPING
“Pavement striping” refers to the practice of painting white or yellow lines on a parking lot, road, or other asphalt or concrete surfaces. In this article, we’re focusing on striping parking lots, which lets drivers know where to park.
A parking lot striping job may include installing wheel stops and safety bollards as well as painting lines.
IMPORTANCE OF LINE STRIPING
When parking lot lines are well-marked on your pavement, drivers know how to move efficiently in the parking lot. That means more time in your place of business and less time in traffic jams.
Clearly showing traffic direction, areas where parking is not authorized, and which spots are designated for the handicapped help your customers navigate comfortably and safely around your property.
PARKING LOT LINES & PAINT COLORS
Yellow is the traditional color for the stripes, but blue is gaining in popularity in some areas, especially for shopping malls. In most cases, this is strictly a personal preference or convention, but keep in mind that certain stencils, such as for handicapped stalls, have legal requirements for color, size, and shape.
​
White is another popular choice for parking lot stripes. Business owners who choose this color may reserve the use of yellow for painting curves and areas where parking is prohibited. Blue with yellow or white is often required by law to paint the handicap symbol on handicap accessible spaces.
