Metal Signage

Metal signage is instrumental for  controlling the traffic in your lot.  Parking lots shouldn’t be a free for all. It’s important that everyone using your lot knows the speed limit, which stalls are handicap stalls, and where fire lanes are located.  Let’s go over some of the most important and common signage that every parking lot needs.

If you run a business and have only a small parking lot, you might want to make sure that people know your lot is for your customers only. Consider putting up a “Customer Parking Only” sign, so that visitors of neighboring businesses or homes know that they should find somewhere else to park, and customers of your facility know that the lot is reserved for them.

Speed limit signs make sure that everyone using your lot knows how fast they should be going. This improves the safety of your lot, as well as traffic flow.

You should also clearly indicate pedestrian crossings. While painting the lot is necessary, a metal sign marking where the pedestrian crossing helps both drivers and pedestrians. These signs work well in larger parking lots where there might be more traffic.  
  
Entrance and exit signs mark where vehicles can come and go. Having properly indicated entrances and exits will keep drivers safe, while also keeping the flow of traffic moving.

Stop signs in your parking lot will encourage careful driving and discourage speeding. They will also ensure that drivers stop at pedestrian crosswalks, entrances, and exits, and promote safe driving in your lot.

Parking Lot Signs for Safety

It may seem unnecessary at first thought, but signage is incredibly useful in a parking lot. It’s common sense to drive slower and pay closer attention to foot traffic when you’re in a parking lot, but it never hurts to have a reminder. Sometimes, there are areas of a parking lot where it may not be clear where and how people should drive. That’s why it’s important to have signage in your parking lot that marks pedestrian crossings, speed bumps, and other driving guidelines. Though a parking lot is not a street, there are still rules to follow, and having these rules carefully indicated will keep visitors of your parking lot safe.

When getting signs made for your lot, consider pedestrian crossing signs, stop signs, and no parking signs for spaces in the lot reserved for fire lanes. These will ensure that vehicles don’t park in spots designated for other vehicles or foot traffic. Without these signs, emergency vehicles might be blocked by parked cars in fire lanes, or people walking from their cars to your establishment might have a more difficult time avoiding cars.  
  
Handicap parking signage is also important in terms of safety. Having these stalls clearly marked will make it easier for people with disabilities to access your building, and alerts drivers to be cautious when driving by these areas.
