Handicap Striping in Baton Rouge, LA
Handicap striping is marking out or painting your parking lot with spaces meant for the handicapped to use. It is important for you to properly stripe handicapped parking spaces.
Why Do You Need to Properly Stripe Handicapped Parking Spaces?
The total number of parking spaces you have is the determining factor of the number of ADA compliant spaces you would have.
Accessible Size and PlacementThe handicapped space should have a minimum width of 8 ft with an access aisle with a minimum width of 5 feet. The access aisle must be extended around the whole space without cutting through it. Handicap spaces should be positioned in such a way that they have easy access to the facility.
Handicapped Parking Space SymbolAll states except New York have a similar way of representing handicap access in line with ADA compliance. The usual image used is someone with a wheelchair, having a background painted with dark blue and white paint for the wheelchair and user.
When Should You Restripe Handicapped Parking Spaces?You should restripe handicapped parking spaces at least once a year. The essence of restriping your handicapped parking spaces is to ensure that the signs and symbols stay clear and visible to avoid mix-ups by car owners and prevent the handicapped from the stress of searching for their designated space.
Traffic and climate are two factors that affect parking spaces. In an attempt to pack snow away from the parking lot, part of the paint is sometimes scraped off which can affect the painting. The start of Spring is a good time to restripe parking spaces. |
