Unlike standard cycle stands, the Dundee has been engineered to perform as a ram-raid cycle stand, offering increased resistance to vehicle impact when strategically positioned along shopfronts and entrances.
Typical installation environments include:
• Glass-fronted retail units
• Car showrooms
• High street premises
• Shopping centres
• Commercial developments
• Mixed-use schemes
When arranged in a continuous line, the stands form a protective barrier while still providing accessible cycle parking for customers and staff.
Manufactured from substantial 168mm diameter steel tube, the Dundee anti-ram cycle stand is built to withstand demanding external environments.
Key features include:
• 168mm diameter steel construction
• Powder coated finish
• Designed for surface or root-fixed installation (subject to specification)
• Suitable for high-traffic commercial areas
The large section diameter increases structural strength, helping the stand perform effectively as an anti-ram bike stand while retaining its core function as a secure cycle parking point.
In high-risk locations, security measures must balance performance with appearance. The Dundee achieves this by delivering a strong visual deterrent while maintaining a clean and professional aesthetic appropriate for retail environments.
As a security cycle stand, it allows bicycles to be secured using standard locks while contributing to perimeter defence. This makes it particularly suitable for sites seeking to integrate security features into everyday street furniture.
The powder coated finish can be specified to align with corporate branding or planning requirements.
Strategic Placement for Maximum Protection
For effective use as an anti ram raid bike rack, positioning is critical. The stand is typically installed:
• In front of glazing and display windows
• Adjacent to entrance doors
• Along pedestrianised retail frontages
• At the edge of car showroom forecourts
When combined with other security measures such as bollards, guardrails or perimeter barriers, it forms part of a cohesive frontage protection strategy.
When specifying the Dundee anti-ram cycle stand, project teams typically assess:
• Proximity to glazing and vulnerable assets
• Vehicle approach angles and potential impact routes
• Foundation depth and ground conditions
• Required spacing between stands
• Compliance with local authority guidance
Correct installation is essential to ensure the stand performs effectively as both a cycle parking solution and a physical deterrent.
