Accessible Parking Space Painting

Faded wheelchair symbols, parking-space lines, or striped no-parking areas can make accessible parking hard to identify. K.A.B. paints the complete approved layout for your property.

More Than a Wheelchair Symbol

A complete accessible parking space also includes painted lines and the striped area beside it.

K.A.B. Striping prepares the pavement and paints each part shown on the property’s approved layout: the parking-space lines, wheelchair symbol, striped access aisle, and any required words. We provide this service for businesses, churches, schools, apartments, offices, and community properties.

What K.A.B. Paints

Each painted part has a clear job in the approved accessible parking layout.

Parking-Space Lines

Painted lines show where the accessible parking space begins and ends.

Wheelchair Symbol

K.A.B. positions and paints the wheelchair symbol inside the approved parking space.

Striped No-Parking Area

The striped area beside the space—called an access aisle—is painted separately from the parking space and may include required pavement wording.

If these accessible-space lines and symbols are faded but staying in the same places, K.A.B. can repaint them as part of a parking lot striping and restriping project.

Texas Rules for Accessible Parking Spaces

Texas has specific painting requirements for some projects. Here is what they mean for your property and when they apply.

What the Texas Rule Requires

When this rule applies, the pavement markings must include:

  • A wheelchair symbol that stands out from the pavement to identify the accessible parking space.
  • A striped area beside the space, keeping that area clear for people getting in and out of vehicles.
  • “NO PARKING” painted in the striped area beside the space

K.A.B. paints these markings to your property’s approved layout. Required upright signs are separate from the painted markings. Review Texas Accessibility Standards, Chapter 5 and the U.S. Access Board parking guide for further information.

When the 2020 Texas Rule Applies

Texas says Rule 68.104 applies to projects registered on or after August 1, 2020. It also applies to new-construction or alteration projects begun on or after that date when the project includes accessible parking, including some jobs that do not have to be registered because of their cost. The 2020 rule does not automatically apply to every unchanged older parking lot. If you are unsure whether it applies to your project, ask TDLR or a qualified accessibility or design professional before K.A.B. paints the approved layout. Read the TDLR applicability notice and TDLR’s answers about older facilities.
