What Are the Best Bike Lockers for Commercial Developments?
The Vertical Bike Locker
Our Vertical Bike Racks are highly popular amongst our clients and The Vertical Bike Locker is a brilliant self-contained alternative.
A sturdy weather-protective store made from steel, it offers an easy access guide ramp for parking and is powder coated.
The user-friendly design enables you to place the front wheel over a retaining hook that clamps it into place: providing convenient space-saving storage.
1990mm high, this heavy-duty product offers durable storage that maximises your floorplan.
The Horizontal 2 Bike Locker
The Horizontal 2 Bike Locker is a superb space saving alternative to The Vertical Bike Locker, providing durable storage that’s ideal for domestic or residential installation.
A robust all steel unit, this bike locker has a weather-protecting design that gives you peace of mind that your bike is safe from the elements.
There’s also ample space to keep your helmet and other accessories in the locker (reducing the chances of you misplacing them!).
Whether you’re a developer looking to create added value at your property or just looking for convenient bike storage outside your offices, in the garden or down the side of your house, this is a popular solution with numerous applications.
The E-Bike Locker
Developed from the footprint of The Horizontal 2 Bike Locker, The E-Bike Locker provides a durable store for the next generation of cycling.
Fully enclosed in weather resistant steel, it can fit up to two bikes and comes with an internal weatherproof dual electric charging point.
As the e-bike market continues to blossom, this is a great option for securely parking and charging – particularly in residential properties; always ensuring that your e-bike is charged and ready to go.
Amazon Eco 2 Cycle Locker
Timber is a sustainable building material and has become increasingly popular for building environmentally conscious bike stores.
An alternative to The Horizontal 2 Bike Locker, the Amazon Eco 2 Cycle Locker has a choice of nine FSC-certified timber cladding options so you can customise it to complement its surroundings.
Its solid steel roof also provides additional security and a pleasing structure, especially when it’s been powder coated black; a high security variant with internal security mesh is also available.
The Horizontal 3 Bike Locker
A supersizing of our Horizontal 2 Bike Storage Locker, The Horizontal 3 Bike Locker is designed to keep your family bikes safe and secure.
Made from powder coated 2.5mm sheet steel and with a 3-point recessed lock, it reduces both clutter and the risk of your bikes rusting in the elements.
If your household has multiple bicycles kicking around, this is a brilliant locker that keeps them safe and secure.
The Folding Bike Locker
Folding bikes are a great alternative to the traditional option and 2023’s global sales are expected to be double those of 2021.
Their space saving design allows for both convenient commuting when hopping on and off trains, and easy storage once you’ve reached your destination.
The Folding Bike Locker offers a compact storage facility that’s both robust and affordable, they also include a perforated door to quickly identify available compartments.
Having installed a lot of these units across the country, we’ve found many of our customers opt for a vibrant powder coating for their folding bike lockers – creating memorable units that bring life to their bike stores.
Tenant Cycle Store
An innovative new cycle store, the Tenant Cycle Store enables residential buildings to provide every tenant in a property with a high-end bike locker in their storage area.
The locker consists of an attack-resistant flat sheet body, 50mm x 50mm mesh roof, a five-point lever deadlock and our Secure Ground Anchor.
All of this has combined to deliver prestigious Secured by Design status and a visually striking product.
Battersea Tenant Cycle Store
A re-imagining of the Tenant Cycle Store concept, this cycle store was created for our extensive installation project at Battersea Power Station.
Its mesh top half mitigates the need for dedicated lighting to be installed in each unit (reducing costs and energy consumption) and allows property managers to ensure restricted materials are not being stored.
Like the standard Tenant Cycle Store model, it also comes with our Secure Ground Anchor to provide additional security and a five-point lever deadlock.
This product is ideal for internal bike stores, especially in properties with a high volume of residents. There are multiple locking options available, to suit any requirement.
