Bike Parking for offices can be a simple shelter, apartments will require something more substantial and secure. For covered areas we can supply simple galvanised bike racks, or wall brackets.

Environmental Considerations

Bike Storage is a an important part of any housing development or workplace as it gives residents and employees the choice of using their bikes to commute to work or to do the shorter journeys where they would have normally used their car. The prospect of congestion charges in all major cities will also encourage people to use their bikes to commute or go shopping.
