The Blox C is a timber-clad two tier cycle shelter designed to deliver space-efficient bicycle parking with a softer architectural presence. Its open-front format, FSC®-certified timber slats, and galvanised steel frame make it well suited to locations where capacity must be increased without compromising the visual quality of the surrounding environment.
This shelter is commonly specified in public realm and workplace settings where cycle parking needs to be both functional and sympathetically integrated.

Double Deck Configuration for Efficient Storage
The two tier arrangement allows bicycles to be stored on two levels, significantly increasing capacity within a limited footprint. As a double deck cycle shelter, the Blox C is particularly effective on constrained sites where expanding laterally is not practical.
Key capacity benefits include: • Two-level storage using compatible two tier cycle racks • Clear organisation of cycles to reduce clutter • Improved utilisation of available space
In its standard 5000mm configuration, the shelter can accommodate up to 24 cycles, making it suitable for medium-demand environments.
Timber-Clad Design with Steel Structure
The Blox C combines FSC® (FSC-C122338) certified timber cladding with a galvanised steel framework, delivering a balance of durability and visual warmth. The timber slats soften the appearance of the shelter, helping it integrate into landscaped or architecturally sensitive settings.
Construction and material features include: • Galvanised steel frame for structural strength and longevity • FSC® timber cladding for responsible material sourcing • Open-front design for ease of access and visibility
A powder-coated frame finish is available, allowing the shelter to be coordinated with surrounding street furniture or architectural palettes.
Access, Security, and Optional Features
While supplied as an open-front shelter, the Blox C two tier bike shelter can be specified with gated access where additional security is required. Gate options include mesh-clad or timber-clad designs secured using a hasp and staple lock.
Additional options may include: • LED or solar-powered lighting for improved visibility • Modular extensions to create larger shelter compounds • Customised configurations within the wider Blox range
These features allow the shelter to be tailored to site-specific security and operational needs.
Modular Design and Installation Flexibility
The modular construction of the Blox C enables multiple units to be linked together, forming larger shelter arrangements as demand increases. This flexibility supports phased development and future expansion without requiring redesign or replacement.
The shelter is suitable for professional installation and can be configured to accommodate a range of double decker bike rack systems, depending on user requirements and cycle types.
Typical Applications
The Blox C two tier cycle shelter is well suited to environments where cycle parking demand is growing but visual impact must be carefully managed.
Common applications include: • Business parks and office developments • Educational campuses and public sector sites • Residential developments with shared facilities • Transport hubs and park-and-ride locations
It is often specified alongside complementary shelters, cycle racks, and other end-of-trip facilities to create a cohesive cycling infrastructure.
A Considered Approach to High-Capacity Cycle Parking
The Blox C offers a practical solution for sites requiring increased capacity within a restrained footprint. Its double deck format, timber cladding, and modular flexibility make it a dependable two tier cycle shelter for long-term use in public and commercial environments.
By combining efficient storage with a natural aesthetic, the Blox C supports active travel infrastructure without compromising on design quality.
