The sedum roof shelter (Blox D) is a large-capacity, secure cycle compound designed for high-demand public and commercial environments. Constructed from galvanised steel with FSC®-certified timber slatted walls and topped with a living sedum roof, it provides protected, enclosed cycle storage while supporting sustainability and landscape integration.
The Blox D Sedum Roof Shelter is a robust, enclosed sedum roof cycle shelter developed for sites where both storage capacity and security are key requirements. Its generous proportions and gated frontage make it suitable for locations with high cycle use, offering an organised and protected environment for everyday parking.
Typical applications include:
The shelter is designed to accommodate large volumes of cycles while maintaining a clear, structured internal layout.
The integrated sedum roof transforms the structure into a green roof shelter that delivers practical environmental benefits alongside secure storage. The living roof layer is engineered to perform reliably in exposed outdoor conditions and requires minimal maintenance once established.
Sedum roof benefits include:
As a sedum roof canopy, the shelter supports landscape-led design approaches and aligns with sustainability objectives commonly required in planning and specification.
The Blox D shelter is formed around a galvanised steel structural frame, providing strength, stability and corrosion resistance. The enclosure is clad with vertical timber slats, available in FSC®-certified hardwood or softwood options, offering a natural appearance that integrates well within both urban and landscaped settings.
Construction highlights include:
This combination ensures the shelter performs reliably in high-use environments while maintaining a refined external appearance.
Configured as a bike shelter with green roof, the Blox D design incorporates secure access options to protect stored cycles. The front elevation can be fitted with either mesh or matching timber gates, allowing the level of enclosure to be tailored to site requirements.
Security features include:
This makes the shelter suitable for both public and semi-private locations where asset protection is a priority.
The Blox D Sedum Roof Shelter is designed to support high-capacity cycle storage while maintaining clear circulation within the enclosure.
