Custom Parking Signs

Types of Parking Signage

Parking signs cover a range of specific purposes, including reserved parking, visitor parking, no parking zones, fire lane restrictions, and accessible parking designation. Each type carries different standard wording and, in some cases, regulatory requirements.

Reserved parking signs are among the most commonly customized, often including a name, department, or unit number, while no parking and fire lane signage typically follows more standardized wording for clarity and, in some cases, legal compliance.

Regulatory and ADA Parking Requirements

Accessible parking signage is subject to ADA requirements, including specific symbol use, mounting height, and wording. Fire lane signage is often governed by local fire code, which can dictate sign color, wording, and placement.

Because these requirements vary by jurisdiction, we recommend confirming local code requirements before finalizing accessible or fire lane parking signage, particularly for commercial properties.

Material and Mounting for Parking Lots

Aluminum is the standard material for parking signage given its outdoor durability, paired with either wall mounting for garage and structure use or post mounting with a U-channel post for open lot placement.

Reflective sheeting is commonly used for parking signs, particularly in garages or low-light areas, to maintain visibility for drivers after dark.

Custom and Branded Parking Signage

Beyond standard regulatory signage, many properties order custom parking signs with their business name, logo, or specific instructions, such as customer-only parking or time-limited parking zones.

We can produce a coordinated set of parking signage for a property, keeping reserved, visitor, and restriction signs consistent in size, material, and design.
