What is the standard parking stall size?

9' wide by 18' long is the common commercial standard with 24' two-way drive aisles. Some jurisdictions allow 8.5' compact stalls for a limited percentage of the lot.

Can striping be done without closing the lot?

Yes. We stripe in sections, or work nights and weekends, and traffic paint is dry to walk on in 30-60 minutes and drivable in about an hour.

Does restriping have to match the old layout?

No, and it often should not. Restriping is the ideal time to add stalls, correct undersized ADA access aisles, or improve circulation.

Quick Answer

How often should a parking lot be restriped?

Every 1-3 years. High-traffic retail and medical lots fade in about a year; low-turnover office lots hold up closer to three. Restripe immediately after any sealcoating.

Why Choose Professional Parking Lot Striping?

Striping is the cheapest way to make a commercial lot look maintained and the fastest way to fail an accessibility inspection if it is done wrong. We restripe existing layouts, redesign lots to add spaces, and lay out new construction from scratch for shopping centers, multifamily communities, industrial sites, office parks and municipal facilities. Standard 90-degree stalls run 9' x 18' with 24' drive aisles; angled layouts trade stall count for easier circulation on tight sites. Every job includes accessible stall counts and access aisles verified against the current ADA standards, with thermoplastic specified where wear is concentrated.
