Bank Credit Union Parking Lot Striping in Baker City, Oregon: 2026 Service Guide

Bank and Credit Union Parking Lot Striping in Baker City

A financial institution's lot has security and traffic flow baked into every line. Drive-thru teller lanes and the ATM both generate stacking that has to be contained. Night-deposit and quick-transaction customers need short-stay spots near the door. Armored-car service requires a keep-clear zone that stays open on schedule. And the whole layout has to keep clean sightlines for the security cameras. In Baker City, banks and credit unions sit mostly along Main Street and Campbell Street in the historic downtown core, where lots tend to be compact and every stall counts.

Cojo Excavation & Asphalt stripes bank and credit-union lots across Baker County. This guide covers the markings that matter for a financial institution, what shapes the cost, and how high-elevation eastern Oregon weather affects the work.

What Gets Striped on a Bank or Credit Union Lot

The priorities here are queue management and security access. A well-striped financial lot includes:

• Drive-thru teller and ATM stacking lanes — Clearly bounded lanes with painted stacking positions and directional arrows keep waiting cars from spilling into the parking flow or onto the street.
• ADA lobby path — A continuous accessible route from the ADA spaces to the lobby door, marked and unobstructed, anchors compliance.
• Night-deposit short-stay stalls — A couple of marked quick-transaction spaces near the deposit box keep that traffic separate from longer member visits.
• Armored-car service keep-clear zone — A striped and stenciled keep-clear area ensures the service vehicle has room to maneuver and the zone stays open during scheduled pickups.
• Member 15-minute stalls — Short-stay stalls near the entrance keep the front row turning over for quick teller-window or lobby visits.
• Security-camera sightline striping — Laying out drive aisles and stalls so they preserve clean camera coverage is a quiet but real part of a financial lot's design.

What Bank Lot Striping Costs

Cojo does not publish a flat price, because the markings on a financial lot vary widely with the number of drive-thru lanes and ATM positions. Below are the industry baseline ranges historically reported by contractors and national surveys.

Industry baseline ranges shown below. Actual costs vary with surface condition, paint type, layout complexity, and current market conditions.

Service	Industry Baseline Range
Per-space restriping	$3–$6 per space
100-space full restripe	$550–$1,000
New layout (100 spaces)	$900–$1,500
ADA-compliant space (complete)	$200–$350 per space
Directional arrows	$25–$50 each
Stencils (keep clear, reserved, etc.)	$30–$75 each

Actual costs in Baker City often exceed these baselines, frequently by two to three times, once surface prep, ADA scope, and material choices are factored in. Bank lots tend to carry a heavier arrow and stencil load relative to their size because of the drive-thru and keep-clear markings, which pushes the per-space figure up.

Why Baker City Conditions Matter

At about 3,400 feet of elevation, Baker County sees genuine winters, and the freeze-thaw cycle is the chief enemy of fresh striping. Moisture penetrates small cracks, freezes, expands, and lifts the surface and the paint with it. The drive-thru lanes, where tires track the same path day after day, wear fastest, so those markings often need attention before the rest of the lot.

The climate also compresses the striping season. Paint needs dry pavement and temperatures above roughly 50°F to cure, which in Baker City realistically means late spring through early fall. And because the city is far from the I-5 contractor corridor, haul distance and mobilization are a real part of the cost; scheduling alongside other east-side work helps absorb it.

Getting the Layout Right

The recurring problem on bank lots is an undersized stacking lane. When the drive-thru queue is three or four cars deep and the lane is not marked to hold them, the overflow blocks the parking aisle or backs onto Main Street. Mapping the stacking positions, the ATM bypass, and the exit arrows before painting solves it.

The armored-car keep-clear zone is the other piece that gets neglected. If it is not clearly striped and stenciled, members park in it and the service vehicle has nowhere to go on pickup day. A bold, well-placed keep-clear marking earns its keep.

When to Restripe

Plan on restriping a Baker City bank or credit-union lot every 18 to 24 months with standard paint, sooner on the drive-thru lanes. Signs it is time:

• Stacking arrows or lane lines are faded enough to cause hesitation
• The keep-clear zone is no longer obvious and members park in it
• ADA markings have lost their crispness
• A fresh sealcoat needs new lines laid down
• A compliance notice has arrived

Thermoplastic on the drive-thru and keep-clear zones can extend the interval to three to five years, often worth it in this freeze-thaw climate.
