​Bollard Installation Services for Your Parking Lot
 
What Is A Bollard?
 
Bollard installation is one of the final key steps to take when building a parking lot or garage. Bollard is a short post designed to guide traffic and protect pedestrians and buildings from vehicle impact. Based on these functions, one could define bollard as a parking lot barrier that is used to separate a walking area from a roadway. Also, bollards serve as visual barriers that help drivers to move along the right path. Bollards are an effective way to protect the parking lot area, cars, and people as well as organize the flow of traffic.  
 
How Do Bollards Protect My Property?
 
Parking garage bollards are inevitable parts of every parking lot though they are often overlooked. Bollards play no less important role than No parking signs, fire lane striping, and other parking lot safety elements. Bollard installation is a time- and labor-intensive process as they need to be firmly fixed into the ground. For optimal protection, the hole is filled with concrete and smoothed out with a level to be even with the ground. Once the concrete is fully cured, the bollard is installed. Regardless of the type of protective bollard, it is always reinforced with concrete to prevent its pulling from the ground.
 
Even though bollards are sometimes overlooked, they are important elements to be included in the parking lot of equipment. They have good perspectives for future use as you don't have to change it because of wear and tear but only when they are broken. For parking lot owners to pay more and more attention to their business attractiveness which begins with clients’ safety and satisfaction, protection bollards need to be added to your property.  

Choosing Traffic Bollards to Protect Facilities
 
There are a lot of types of bollards that can be classified by height, shape, material, function, etc. When choosing from different types of parking garage barriers on the base of their function, consider the most common of them:
 

• Decorative Bollards
• Security Bollards
• Concrete Bollards
• Steel Bollards
• Plastic Bollards
• Pipe Bollards
• Road Bollards
• Protective Bollards
• Light Bollards

 
Bollards can be divided into guides and safety posts. For guiding purposes, customers usually choose temporary orange traffic-control cone bollards designed to direct traffic but these bollards are not able to protect property from damage. Pipe bollards are an effective way to protect buildings from the backside or areas through which the large vehicles pass as they are comparatively cheap, reinforced with concrete for additional protection and have a thin shape. 
 
For the purpose of protection, steel or concrete parking garage bollards are most often used. Safety bollard is a post designed in a manner that allows it to withstand collisions with heavy vehicles. The more durable material the bollard is made of, the more significant vehicle impact it can withstand. Concrete bollard is one of the cheapest and most durable options for parking lot areas. Steel bollard installation is a more expensive option though steel bollards are more visually appealing and durable than concrete bollards. Steel bollards are made of 100% steel and they can endure quite violent intrusions. Steel bollard post installation implies repair and removal services if needed. These bollards are installed in sensitive areas to protect vehicles, buildings, and people and reduce the damage that could be catastrophic. Two-part epoxy coatings make it able to withstand the most extreme harsh weather conditions. Light steel bollards are used to improve the look of buildings and make them more visible at night. 
 
Depending on your needs, we can offer you a wide range of bollards of high quality and at an affordable price. From decorative to protective, our bollard professionals can install the exact posts you need for a parking lot or garage. Despite the fact that bollards usually come in a set, we are ready to provide you with the number that suits exactly to your area.

​Handicap Parking Signs Requirements
Besides the ADA parking striping, signs with the international symbol of accessibility must be posted on the parking spaces. To be visible to the driver, signs should be 60 inches above the surface.

There is quite a complicated issue concerning a difference between the posted sign and the painted symbol. Imagine a situation when the symbol is painted but there is no signage. What rule should the drivers follow? The thing is that painted symbol doesn't indicate a handicap space because a sign is the required marker.

​On the other hand, sign without a symbol does not allow handicapped drivers to use these spaces. Though ADA parking space requirements may differ in some states, both sign and symbol are obligatory to install in every parking lot.  

​The accessibility sign should be a 40-inch blue square with a white international accessibility symbol inside. The sign looks in a similar way as handicap striping. It can contain different inscriptions including” Handicapped parking”, “Reserved parking”, “Parking only”, “Van accessible” and other.

This size and shape are not obligatory as manufacturers can produce specific sizes and shapes if needed. Also, logo and wording can be used with any material including aluminum, steel and other.

Parking lot maintenance refers to the repair works and treatment meant to prevent further damages to the parking lot and prolong the life span of the pavements.
All parking lots whether in grocery stores, commercial plazas, public buildings and facilities, and the residential suites that have parking lots are used on a day to day basis and hence require maintenance to increase parking lot longevity and safety.
 
Types Of Parking Lot Maintenance

• Grading- maintenance on pavements
• Mechanics- maintenance of paving equipment to ensure they are in good condition 
• Parking lot Stripers-maintenance did on paint lines and signs to ensure they are clear and visible

 
Why Parking Lot Maintenance Is Important
 
The parking lot is essential for the following reasons:

• Reduces liability
• Ensures compliance with the regulations
• Extending the life span of the parking lot
• Maximizes the parking space available
• Enhances safety
• Increases attraction to customers 

Parking Lot Maintenance Tips
 
Routine visual inspection - advisable that persons in charge of the lot be taking walks around to be able to identify where cracks, standing water or pool of oil may be present. These problems require instant actions to repair cracks, clear drain or wash the oils on the surface to avoid long damages that they cause
 
Clearing catch basins- catch basins are responsible for water drainage. Leaves, dirt, and debris can clog it hence damaging it by forcing the water to pool up to the surface.
 
Rotate parking areas- using parking lots over and over makes them degrade with time since they will lose their initial strength. For instance, this causes dips in asphalt creating sinkholes
 
Use line marking and signage-the signs and painted markings need refreshing whenever they fade to enhance visibility by showing correct traffic flow, guiding both motorists and pedestrians also to use the lot with ease.
 
Clean oil spills immediately- usually, a parking lot can be used by anybody, the owner does not dictate the type of vehicles that are parked or the kind of maintenance the owner should undertake hence this problem is inevitable.
 
Cleaning- sweeping of leaves and other debris that collect should be done to avoid creating space for water standing or clogging the drainage. Pressure washing of the lot is also encouraged for at least twice a year
 
Pothole spray patching-the content is a usually hot emulsion of asphalt and crushed aggregate. The hot mixture is forced and injected at the available potholes for repair
 
Reroute the traffic- once the application of the seal coat has been carried out, change traffic flow direction to spread the wear by realigning parking spaces and traffic lanes
 
Consider hiring a professional– maintenance can be done by self, however, for effective maintenance that lasts longer, a professional should be regarded so as to realize this.
 
Seal coating-fresh coats create a difference and also extends the asphalt life span
 
Check the drains-drains should be opened and checked for blockages that can have long term damage.

​Common Types of Metal Signage for Your Parking Lot
 
When thinking which metal signs are required to be placed in or around your parking lot, take into consideration that it depends on the number of sections and categories of drivers.  Customers are offered with a wide variety of pre-designed signs as well as possibility to order metal signs for any specific use. The most common signs installed in the parking lots are stop signs, No Parking sign, fire lane sign and other signs.

Parking sign manufacturers produce a huge number of signs based on the type of material, its thicknesses, and other parameters. For today, metal parking signs are known to be the most popular ones because of their durability. 

When talking about temporary parking signs, heavy duty paper and plastic signs can be installed during short events. Heavy duty paper signs are considered disposable and environment-friendly being expected to last from 1 day to 2 weeks. Plastic parking signs are more durable than paper, they don't bend or chip being able to withstand temperatures as low as -55°C. This is a perfect material for illuminated signs with a high-tech look. In addition, temporary parking signs are a way cheaper than metal though when it comes to permanent usage, metal is the most appropriate choice.  

Parking Lot Safety - Metal Signs Help Prevent Potential Hazards
 
In order to provide parking lot safety, one should install only parking signs made of long-lasting materials able to withstand any weather conditions. There are some specific requirements for metal signage. As most of the parking signs have a rectangular shape, they must go with the rounded corners. Since parking signs are often installed on fences or walls, the mounting holes should be drilled in advance.
 
The size and thickness of the metal parking signs matter as well. For outdoor use, when signs are exposed to seasonally high winds and heat, sturdy and weather-resistant signs should be used. The thicker and larger metal panel, the less likely the sign will bend under the wind's pressure or when attached to the frame.
 
One more requirement is how dull or bright the sign is during the day- or night time. To be seen at night, a parking sign has to be covered with a reflective film. While most of the metal parking signs are reflective, paper and plastic cannot be covered with a film. One should take into account that sometimes signs are seen at an angle, and specific types of cars observe signs at different angles. 
 
Installation of the metal signs includes coring and drilling holes in the asphalt. To avoid parking lot hazards, the person installing or replacing a sign should undertake safety measures, such as wearing a face mask or goggles, using the drill at a slower speed, etc.
