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

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 |
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.
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.

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:
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.
