How it works

Mark the line

We stretch a reference line along the driveway edge to get consistent spacing and alignment before any stakes go in.

Drive the stakes

We pound each reflector to the appropriate depth so it stands firm in wet ground and through frost cycles.

Align & verify

We sight down both rows from the street to confirm they are straight and all reflectors are at a consistent height.

We can help

Stakes driven into hard soil and immediately tilting with the first freeze
Spacing too wide, leaving dark gaps that defeat the purpose

Driveway Reflector Install — FAQ

How far apart should driveway reflectors be spaced?

Every six to ten feet works well for most residential driveways. Curved sections benefit from closer spacing so the line of sight stays clear through the arc.

What color should I use?

Convention is white or amber on the right side facing the home, red on the left so they mirror road-marker standards. Single-color is common and completely acceptable for residential use.

Will reflectors survive a snowplow?

Flexible fiberglass stakes bend and spring back better than rigid metal ones. If you get the driveway plowed regularly, flexible stakes set slightly inside the edge line are your best bet.
