Bumper Blocks
A1 Asphalt Paving & Sealing provides professional bumper block installation for commercial parking lots throughout the Richmond area and Central Virginia. Bumper blocks—also known as parking stops or wheel stops—play a key role in protecting sidewalks, access aisles, and pedestrian routes.
The Role of Bumper Blocks in ADA Compliance
Bumper blocks help prevent vehicles from encroaching into walkways and accessible routes. Proper placement is especially important near handicapped spaces, building entrances, and sidewalks.
Bumper blocks are commonly used to:
- Protect ADA access aisles
- Prevent vehicle overhang
- Define parking boundaries
Improper placement can create tripping hazards or block access, making professional installation critical.
Proper Installation and Placement
Bumper blocks must be positioned carefully to maintain required clearances and slopes. Our team installs bumper blocks in coordination with striping and layout work to ensure consistent spacing and alignment.
Installation is often performed during:
- New parking lot installation
- Resurfacing projects
- Commercial asphalt maintenance services
Bumper Blocks and Ongoing Maintenance
Over time, bumper blocks can shift, crack, or deteriorate. We inspect existing blocks and recommend repair or replacement when needed to maintain site safety and accessibility.
Bumper block services are often paired with striping and ADA signage updates.
