Pay Parking Signs FAQ
What is a pay parking sign?
A pay parking sign tells drivers that a fee is required to park in that space or lot, and it usually points to a meter, kiosk, or pay station. It is used in paid lots, garages, and metered street parking to make the payment requirement clear.
Can I add custom hours, fees, or a time range to a pay parking sign?
Yes. We can add specific hours of operation, a rate or fee, an hour or minute limit, or a time range such as 8 AM to 6 PM to any pay parking sign, along with directional arrows. This lets the sign match your lot’s exact rules.
What is the difference between a pay parking sign and a pay-and-display sign?
A pay parking sign simply states that payment is required to park. A pay-and-display sign specifically instructs drivers to buy a ticket from a machine and place it on the dashboard. Both indicate paid parking; the wording depends on how you collect payment.
What color are pay parking signs?
Pay parking and time-limit signs are typically green legend and border on a white background, matching other parking-regulation signs, so they read clearly from a distance. Custom color combinations are available on request.
What size and material are pay parking signs?
Standard sizes are 12x18 inches and 18x24 inches for higher visibility. Signs are printed on rust-proof .080" aluminum with reflective sheeting so they stay legible day and night and last for years outdoors.
