In today's world, where environmental consciousness and personal well-being are increasingly prioritised, promoting cycling as a primary mode of transportation has never been more crucial. Whether for schools or workplaces, encouraging cycling not only fosters a healthier community but also contributes significantly to reducing traffic congestion and carbon emissions. One of the most effective ways to support this shift is by providing secure, convenient, and aesthetically pleasing cycle shelters and storage solutions.
Which Cycle Shelter or Compound is Right For You?
Choosing the right cycle shelter or compound is about more than just storage—it's about creating a safe, convenient, and attractive space that encourages cycling, supports sustainability, and meets the unique needs of your environment. So what are the different types of shelters you should consider:
Traditional Cycle Shelters
Perfect for areas with limited space. They offer basic coverage from the elements and are available in various designs, from minimalist canopies to more robust structures with side panels for additional protection.
Enclosed Cycle Compounds
Ideal for high-security areas, these compounds provide full enclosure and locking mechanisms to ensure that bicycles are safe from theft and vandalism. They are particularly suitable for schools, workplaces, and public spaces where security is a concern.
Customisable Shelters
For those looking to match their cycle shelters with their brand or architectural style, we offer customisable options. Choose from a variety of materials, colours, and designs to create a shelter that complements your premises.
Key Considerations When Choosing a Cycle Shelter
When selecting a cycle shelter or compound for your premises, several factors should be taken into account to ensure it meets the needs of your users:
Capacity: Estimate the number of bicycles you expect to accommodate and ensure the shelter can handle this volume, with room for future growth.
Security: With an estimated 400,000 cycles stolen or damaged each year, providing secure parking is essential. Enclosed compounds with secure locking systems might be necessary or the addition of sturdy cycle stands provides a simple yet effective way to help users securely lock their bikes, adding an extra layer of protection against theft.
Weather Protection: Bicycles left exposed to rain, snow, or harsh sunlight can suffer significant damage so make sure to consider the local climate. In regions with frequent rain or harsh sunlight, a fully covered shelter with side panels will provide better protection for the bicycles. All of our shelters include either polycarbonate roofing or treated steel that offer both durability and weather resistance.
Space Availability: Measure the available space carefully to choose a shelter that fits without overcrowding the area.
Aesthetic Appeal: Well-designed cycle shelters and racks can add to the visual appeal of your premises. They can be integrated seamlessly into the environment, contributing to both functionality and aesthetics. Customisable options allow you to align the shelter with your brand or building architecture.
