Fire lane marking in DFW
Fire lane curbs and lettering painted to the plan or requirement your fire marshal gave you.
- Free quote
- By appointment
- Commercial properties
Fire lanes keep emergency vehicles able to reach a building. Where they go, how wide they are, and how they have to be marked are set by the local fire code and the fire marshal, not by us. Fire lanes are often marked with red curbs and white lettering, but the requirement for your property is what counts.
Bring us the approved plan, a fire marshal letter, or a marked-up drawing. We paint what it says. We do not decide where fire lanes go, and we do not approve them. Commercial properties only.

We prepare, mark, and paint
We prepare the surface, mark out the layout, and paint. We tell you when the lot can be driven on.
What affects the cost
- Length of curb. More curb means more time and paint.
- Lettering. Each stenciled word or symbol is detail work.
- Condition of the surface. Worn or dirty curbs need more prep.
- Layout changes. Moving a fire lane means removing or covering old markings.
- Timing. A deadline from a fire inspection can affect which slots work.
How to prepare
- Send the approved plan, a fire marshal letter, or a marked-up drawing.
- Tell us the property address and send photos of the lanes.
- Plan for cars to be out of the lanes during the visit.
- Tell us if there is an inspection date.
- Ask your fire marshal if you are unsure of the requirement.
- Give us a contact on site.
What we do not do on this job
- Deciding where fire lanes go or how wide they are
- Fire marshal approval or inspection
- Posted signs, unless we confirm first that we can supply and set them

Texas and DFW notes
The fire marshal sets the rule
Fire lane requirements come from the local fire code and your city or county fire marshal. Ask what applies to your property, and give us the requirement to paint to.
Inspections
If a fire inspection is coming up, tell us the date when you ask for a quote so we can say honestly whether the timing works.
What we do not do
We are a small crew focused on commercial striping and marking. These are outside what we do, so please ask before booking if your job touches any of them.
- Sealcoating, crack filling, patching, and paving. If your lot needs it before restriping, ask and we will refer you to a contractor who does
- Engineering, site plans, or code and ADA compliance review. We mark to the plan or requirement you give us
- Public road, highway, or street marking
- Residential driveways and homes. We focus on commercial properties
- Epoxy floor coatings, concrete grinding, and slab repair. Our floor work is painted lines and markings
- Permits and fire marshal approvals. Property owners or managers handle those, and we paint to what was approved
This list is our company policy and can change. Not sure about a job? Ask before the visit.
