Parking Lot Directional Arrows 
 
Control the Traffic Flow In Your Parking Lot With Directional Arrows: 
Parking lot directional arrows are used to guide each of the individual vehicles in the parking lot and maintain the traffic flow. Directional arrows are either painted or shown in digital form to indicate the possible directions for all the drivers. Painting directional arrows in the parking lot are the most economical method to save money. Directional arrows are painted on both floors and walls so that the driver watches out from the considerable distance. Directional arrow stencils are more common as they are cheap and can be easily removed as well. Directional arrows can be marked in private parking lots according to the convenience of owner of the parking lot. Multiple stories and complex parking lots require some sort of additional safety features including parking lot directional arrows. Painted directional arrows on the floor  ​

Types of Parking Lot Markings and Directional Arrows: 

The directional arrows are used to indicate entrance, visitor parking, exit, way out, truck entrance, employee parking, directions, additional parking, front door, deliveries and so on. All kinds of parking lot markings are being used to guide confused visitors. These directional arrows are projected for the safety of pedestrians and one must be fully aware of all the traffic rules and signals before printing or installing them in his parking lot. There should be limit to the number of directional arrows and they should only be used at appropriate spaces. They are usually marked in dense black, white or red colors. Parking lot marking and directional arrows are modified for each new incoming vehicle to provide them safety and so the visitors can enjoy their time without stressing about their car safety in the parking lot. There are different types of parking lot markings including fire lane, handicapped parking space, employee parking space, parking space for officials, and parking space for players typically outside grounds and the list goes on. All the drivers follow the same directional arrows one after the other thus perfect discipline is ensured in the parking space.

Among users of parking lots may be people with disabilities whose right to park in private and public parking lots is regulated by U.S. law. The thing is local authorities have no legal right to force parking lot owners to provide spaces for people with disabilities but the law still requires them to provide such spaces. 

ADA compliance is essential for keeping your parking lot functional and successful. If you need to stripe or re-stripe your parking lot spaces, you have to take into account the ADA Standards for Accessible Design which is required by the law of every state.

In order to meet the parking lot handicap requirements, accessible parking spaces have to be bright, well-designated, and durable. Parking lot stencil professionals’ duty is to be familiar with  handicapped accessible parking lot stenciling and painting requirements of the particular state.  
Handicap parking striping is relatively inexpensive, that's why compliance is considered quite achievable for most business owners. ADA parking lot markings include the following elements: 

• Handicap signage 
  
• Parking spot striping 
  
• Handicap curb painting 
  
• Handicap ramp painting. 
  

If you need to stencil, paint or repaint your business or organization parking lot according to handicap parking requirements, you can ask for the help of a contractor. Parking lot maintenance company ensures your business fits within ADA regulations.

The handicapped symbol is a square with a blue background and white wheelchair marking inside. This symbol was designed in 1968 winning in a design contest. It is used to direct disabled drivers to parking lot spaces allocated to them.  

The number of handicap parking spots depends on the total number of parking spaces in the parking lot or garage. First, determine how many spaces you need in your parking lot, then set aside at least 2% of this number. A parking lot that includes less than 50 parking spaces, will need to provide at least 1 handicap parking space. 

ADA standards may change in some situations. For instance, in the hospital parking lots every five space should be allocated to people with disabilities. There sometimes arise conflicts about handicapped spaces as there are not enough spaces for all the drivers, so some of them have to use the spaces for disabled in the parking lot. Nevertheless, federal and state law does not forgive such rule violations charging a penalty for parking in spaces for disabled which may vary from $100 to $500. 

ADA does not provide any specifications about what color of paint should be used for handicapped spots. The only requirement is concerned with paint is that it should be contrast to be clearly visible to people with vision disorders.

Wheel stops are made of different materials such as plastics, wood, metal, concrete, and recycled rubber. Common installation techniques include mechanical pinning, epoxy, and gravity weighted.

While all these installations are useful, they are not 100 percent full proof or maintenance free. One can easily knock an epoxied wheel stop, making it lose. If you bolt a wheel stop or anchor it through mechanical pinning, repeated hitting can destroy the area around the anchor.

This, in turn, creates channels for water to penetrate, which results in more hazards. Another great damage is snow-plowing operation; it tends to push the wheel stops out of the alignment. For this reason, you must check and examine the existing wheel stops on a regular basis. Check for factors such as cracking, corrosion, deterioration, and misalignment.

Here are dos and don’ts when placing wheel stops in your parking lot:

Dos

• Make sure the length of the wheel stop does not exceed 6 inches, and the height is approximately 6.5 inches.
• The walking path should be at least 3 inches from the wheel stops

• The wheel stops should be easy to notice within the surrounding pavement
• Illuminate the wheel stops adequately so that everyone can easily spot them from afar

Don’ts

• Do not put the wheel stops along the pedestrian path
• Do not leave damaged or broken wheel stops in the parking lot ​

If you have a parking lot or parking garage with high vehicle or pedestrian traffic and you want to install or remove Wheel Stops, here is a detailed installation guide for accurate installation. 

How to Get Started 
Start the installation process by recognizing your requirements. Certain things to help you decide are: 

1. The Traffic Volume: High or low 

2. Area of Installation: Industrial, Commercial, or residential. 

3.  Type of Vehicles: Trucks and Cars  

Make sure your Wheel Stops are put on a flat surface before you start.  
1. Look for the right place of installation. 
2. Put the Wheel Stop at the exact position and drill a guide hole in the concrete through each hole with a 14mm masonry drill bit to mark the surface, and make it clear where to carry on drilling. 
3. Take out the Wheel Stop and clear the concrete dust in the application region. 
4. Keep drilling each guide hole to an estimated depth of about 120mm. 
5.  Brush out the concrete dust that built up in the drilling process. 
6. Insert the plastic plug element of the fixing within the drilled hole and mallet in. 
7. Position the Wheel Stop on the holes, line up and use the M10 screw to put it through the Wheel Stop and into the plastic plug. 
8. Finally, tighten the M10 screw with your 17mm socket.
​

Speed bumps are also known as speed breakers. They are a family of devices designed to calm or slow down vehicles to enhance security on the road. Speed bumps include speed tables, speed cushions, and speed humps.

​The truth is that many motorists detest speed bumps, but they are placed on the roads for a reason. They boast of a myriad of health and safety merits. Speed bumps act as police officers, in the sense that they stop or slightly slow down motorists, hence their popular name  “sleeping policemen.”  Unlike police officers, speed bumps are affordable. ​

These vertical lines run from one side of the road to the other with the primary goal of prompting vehicles to slow down. Indeed, a speed bump has the potential to save lives and prevent you from facing a lawsuit. In addition to that, speed bumps allow pedestrians to walk through conveniently. This is the reason they are placed in areas with a lot of pedestrian traffic. ​

Sealcoating is a process done to protect your asphalt surface. It is done by the application of a coating on the surface. If often done after an effective
repair of any existing cracks.

Sealcoating can extend your asphalt pavement or driveway for a long time. This is the major purpose of sealcoating. However, there are other benefits of seal coating including:

• Improving the visual appearance of your pavement or driveway-This
  is one of the major reasons property managers sealcoat pavements. The pavement is often the first part that welcomes you to the property and if you feel your parking lot needs some visual improvement, sealcoating can make it better.
• Preventing oxidation from the sun- Asphalt often deteriorates as soon as it is placed. The oxygen causes the binder or tar to harden which leads to a brittle surface which eventually gives way and cracks. The crack will allow rainwater and more oxygen to penetrate the surface which weakens it. Sealcoating covers the pavement from more intake of moisture or more oxygen which extends the life of the surface.
• Replacing any eroded parts- Sealcoating prevents further damage to the already eroded parts which can save you a lot of money on repairs or the
  whole replacement of your pavement.
• Resists ultra-violet rays-Rays from the sun often cause surface deterioration as they break the carbon bond links in your asphalt which causes your pavement to crumble. Sealcoating protects against the sun’s rays
• Protects against gas and oil spills- Spills from gas and oil Soften asphalt. Coal tar sealers that are used in sealcoating protects from leaks and spills damage. They fill the voids which reduce the penetration of oil and gas.
