Getting line marking done in Melbourne
The short version: send the form with your site, what needs marking and when. A Melbourne line marking contractor contacts you, measures up or visits, and gives you a fixed quote. Most car park and warehouse jobs are done at night or on weekends so the site keeps operating.
Line marking does two jobs: it keeps traffic and people moving safely, and it shows a site is compliant with the standards and safety duties that apply to it. Faded car park bays cause parking chaos and complaints. Worn forklift lanes and walkways in a warehouse are a safety risk. Both are cheap to fix compared with the problems they cause.
Warehouse and factory line marking
Australia doesn't mandate a single colour code for warehouse floor marking. What WorkSafe Victoria does expect is that businesses control the risk of forklifts and other mobile plant, and separating pedestrians from forklifts is a key control. Line marking is how most sites show that separation: forklift lanes, pedestrian walkways, crossings, and exclusion zones around racking, docks and machinery, backed by physical barriers where the risk is high.
Melbourne's industrial belts, from Dandenong South and Keysborough in the south-east to Truganina, Derrimut and Laverton North in the west and Campbellfield and Epping in the north, are full of distribution centres and factories that re-mark their floors as layouts change. See warehouse line marking and the warehouse line marking guide.
Car park line marking to Australian Standards
In Australia, off-street car parks are designed to AS/NZS 2890.1. A standard parking space is 5.4 m long, and between 2.4 m and 2.6 m wide depending on the user class: about 2.4 m for long-stay and residential parking, 2.5 m for medium-term, and 2.6 m for short-stay, high-turnover parking like shopping centres. Accessible spaces follow AS/NZS 2890.6: a 2.4 m by 5.4 m space beside a shared area of the same size, with a bollard in the shared area.
A good contractor sets out new layouts to these standards, and re-lines existing car parks without shifting bays that were already compliant. See car park line marking and car park line marking standards.
