Parking Lot Line Striping in North Richland Hills, TX

Parking lot line striping lays out stalls, drive aisles, arrows, crosswalks, fire lanes and accessible spaces. HomeGuide estimates most striping lasts 2 to 5 years before it fades enough to need a fresh coat. Faded lines lead to crooked parking, lost spaces and confused traffic, and they make a well-kept property look neglected.

Restriping triggers the ADA

Department of Justice guidance says that restriping a lot requires accessible parking that meets the 2010 ADA Standards. Required minimums by lot size: 1 accessible space for 1 to 25 total, 2 for 26 to 50, 3 for 51 to 75, 4 for 76 to 100, 5 for 101 to 150, 6 for 151 to 200, 7 for 201 to 300. At least one in six accessible spaces must be van-accessible.

Sizes, slopes and signs

Accessible car spaces are at least 96 inches wide with a 60-inch access aisle; van spaces are 132 inches with a 60-inch aisle or 96 inches with a 96-inch aisle. Spaces and aisles may slope no more than 1:48 in any direction, and sign bottoms sit at least 60 inches above the ground. We check slopes with a level before choosing where the accessible spaces go.

New layouts

For new or reconfigured lots, we lay out stalls, aisles and traffic flow before painting. HomeGuide says a new layout runs about 20 to 50 percent more than restriping existing lines.

Timing

We stripe on clean, dry pavement, often early, late or on weekends for businesses, and close sections so the rest of the lot stays usable. After sealcoating, the sealer must cure before lines go down.

Other markings

Arrows, stop bars, crosswalks, fire lanes, loading zones, stall numbers and curb paint are priced individually. Send any fire marshal, landlord or HOA requirements and we will follow them.

After resurfacing or sealing

New asphalt or a fresh sealcoat covers old lines, so striping is planned as part of the same project. It is also a good time to fix a layout that does not work.

Records for property managers

We can provide a striping plan showing the space count, accessible and van-accessible spaces and their locations, for your records.

Paint and visibility

Lines fade fastest in drive aisles and at entrances where tires turn. If certain areas fade early, we can touch them up between full restripes.
