Parking Lot Striping

For most people, the striping done on parking lots seems like an obvious task that people just knock out without much concern about where those lines need to go. Indiana Seal Tech looks at parking lot striping in an entirely different way.

What Truly Matters With Parking Lot Striping

When it comes to painting parking lot stripes, there are a number of things to think about. However, three factors play the biggest role in your lot’s efficiency and meeting legal requirements.

• Meet ADA Regulations: If you didn’t know, the American Disabilities Act (ADA) being in place means that you have to follow rather specific requirements when it comes to striping your parking lot. When we stripe your parking lot, we make absolutely sure that ADA requirements are met to keep you within the rule of law.
• Traffic Management: If the exits and entrances to your commercial parking lot aren’t planned well, you can end up cursing backups and possible danger both in the parking lot itself as well as on the road your business resides on. Our lot striping planning will ensure this doesn’t become an issue for you, your business, or your clientele.
• Parking Spot Angles: Depending of the layout your parking lot and large your lot is, the angle of your parking lines plays a major role in making sure your surface is used efficiently to pack in the most customers as possible without making parking a risky task for your visitors. Our planning will make sure your striping is efficient and safe for everyone.

How Frequently Should I Restripe My Commercial Asphalt Surfaces?

How often you need to restripe a parking lot is dependent on a handful of factors. These include how much traffic your parking lot gets, the amount of rain and snow your property gets hit with, and the amount of direct sunlight it receives.

Because of the changing conditions of these factors, your parking lot may need to be painted anywhere from every year to every three years.

If we’re being sincere, you’ll know when it’s time to repaint a parking lot’s stripes. Once the paint starts chipping, wearing down, or it just doesn’t look right to you, give us a call for your free estimate, and we’ll get your parking lot looking like new.

How Long Does it Take For New Parking Lot Stripes to Dry?

The amount of time it takes for new parking lot stripes to dry depends very heavily on the weather. Since we here at Indiana Seal Tech use only high-quality materials designed specifically for the work being performed, the wait to use your parking lot generally won’t leave your lot unusable for very long.

For most commercial parking stripes, the drying and curing process can take around four hours. However, suppose you operate a 24-hour business or need to get your lot painted early in the day while maintaining your lot’s operating hours. In that case, a newly-painted parking lot can usually be driven on within about an hour after the painting is complete.
