Key takeaways
- Stall width, angle and aisle width decide how many spaces fit.
- Accessible stalls need access aisles, nearly level slopes and signs.
- Fire lanes follow local code.
- Re-striping after paving or sealcoating saves time.
Stalls and aisles
Typical stalls are about nine feet wide, with aisles sized to the angle of parking. Narrower stalls or a different angle can add spaces, but they must stay within local standards. A layout sketch before painting avoids surprises.
Accessible parking
Accessible stalls need the right width, an access aisle, slopes that are nearly level, signs at the correct height and a compliant route to the entrance. The number of stalls depends on the total in the lot and the type of facility.
Fire lanes and extras
Fire lanes, crosswalks, stop bars and arrows complete the plan. Local fire codes set widths and markings, and a fire marshal can confirm. We stripe after sealcoating or paving so the lines go down once and look their best.
