The Blox B is a timber-clad two tier cycle shelter developed for sites that require increased cycle parking capacity within a controlled footprint. Its open-front format and modular construction make it suitable for a wide range of public realm and commercial environments, while the use of FSC®-certified timber helps the shelter sit comfortably within landscaped or architecturally sensitive settings.
Designed around proven two-tier storage principles, the Blox B provides a practical balance between capacity, durability, and visual restraint.
Product Details:
Space-Efficient Two Tier Cycle Parking
The double-level configuration allows bicycles to be stored one above the other, effectively doubling capacity compared to single-level shelters. This makes the Blox B an effective solution where available space is limited but demand for cycle parking continues to grow.
As a two tier cycle rack shelter, it supports: • High-density parking within a compact footprint • Clear, organised cycle storage • Compatibility with a range of two tier bike rack systems
In its standard 5000mm length, the shelter can accommodate up to 24 cycles, making it suitable for medium-demand sites.
Timber Cladding with Galvanised Steel Frame
The shelter is constructed using FSC® (FSC-C122338) certified timber slats fixed to a galvanised steel framework. This combination delivers long-term structural performance while softening the appearance of the shelter in public-facing environments.
Key construction features include: • Galvanised steel frame for strength and corrosion resistance • FSC® timber cladding for responsible material sourcing • Open-front design to provide ease of access and visibility
A powder-coated frame option is available to support colour coordination with surrounding street furniture.
Modular Design and Customisation Options
The Blox B two tier cycle shelter is modular by design, allowing multiple units to be linked together to create larger shelter compounds as requirements increase. This approach supports phased delivery and future expansion without altering the original layout.
Optional features and configurations include: • Choice of two tier bicycle rack systems • Mesh-clad or timber-clad gates with clasp and staple lock • Integrated LED or solar lighting • Bespoke Blox shelter configurations for site-specific requirements
These options enable the shelter to be adapted to varying security, access, and operational needs.
Installation and Site Integration
The shelter is suitable for professional installation on a range of hardstanding surfaces. Its open-front layout ensures straightforward access for users and clear sightlines across the site.
The Blox B is often specified alongside complementary cycle infrastructure such as additional shelters, double decker bike rack systems, or end-of-trip facilities to create a cohesive cycle parking strategy.
Typical Applications
This two tier cycle shelter is commonly specified in environments where space-efficient cycle parking is required without introducing visually dominant structures.
Typical use cases include: • Business parks and office developments • Educational campuses and public sector sites • Residential schemes with shared amenities • Transport interchanges and park-and-ride facilities
