Cycling is gaining in popularity. We offer the largest range of cycle shelters, compounds and security retaining systems in the UK to meet this need.

We offer cycling shelters and ancillary products to suit every budget and are designed to be complimentary to and work with other shelters.

Many of our cycle shelters are of modular construction, designed to be complimentary to each other to form high security compounds. A number of ancillary components are offered to ensure most customer requirements can be met.

Reduce bike thefts and vandalism on your site by installing bike furniture. The tough, scratch-resistant polycarbonate roof is clear so that everyone can see any activity near the cycle shelter, whilst protecting users and cycles from the elements. A singlebike rack accepts 10 cycles and can be extended in its length or banked back to back. Because our flexible modular design allows it, you can extend your cycle accommodation at any time. The cycle shelters come in a flat pack form for fast and simple erection.

Our bike facilities are designed with modern cycles and security in mind. These storage shelters can come with either clear or solid back and side panels or a combination of both, allowing visibility and security where required.

The provision of secure, well located bike storage is essential if people

are to be encouraged to use a bicycle as a means of transport.

By indicating to the public that cyclists are welcome, parking

facilities act as a message to motorists to consider cycling in the

future. Bike storage should be prominent on the ground and clearly

advertised in any promotional material.

In order for bike storage to be useful, a few important factors must

be taken into account when choosing the design and location.

This information sheet aims to avoid expensive mistakes and offer

guidance on the best solutions.

The basics of effective bike shelters are good parking facilities (racks, lockers, shelters, cages), a good location (security, safety, convenience), and safe access to that location. For most commuting cyclists, adequate bicycle parking is more that just a fixed object to which a bicycle may be locked. It also means a location safe from vandalism and/or theft, conveniently located close to the cyclists' destination and protected from inclement weather. Bicycle parking is divided between short (a few minutes to a couple of hours), and long-term (a full working day or longer) parking. Long-term parking is typically used by commuters, has low turnover, and requires a high level of security. Visitors, customers and people making deliveries typically use short-term parking. It has a higher turnover rate, and needs to be conveniently located and requires a lower level of security.
