Liverpool City Councils, Clubmoor Children’s Centre and Family Hub required a practical yet thoughtfully designed storage solution that could support both active travel and everyday family needs. The project called for a dual-purpose shelter that would seamlessly accommodate cycle parking alongside secure pram storage, while maintaining a welcoming, safe, and visually appealing presence within a community-focused environment.
The resulting installation is a fully Bespoke Cycle and Pram Shelter, measuring 4600mm wide by 2100mm deep and 2100mm high, designed specifically to maximise functionality within the available footprint. Constructed from a robust galvanised steel frame and finished with a durable powder coating in Royal Blue (RAL 260 30 35), the structure delivers both long-term resilience and a vibrant, family-friendly aesthetic that complements the surrounding facility.
A key feature of the design is the carefully considered dual-zone layout. The left-hand side has been left open-fronted to provide easy, unobstructed access for cyclists, encouraging regular use and supporting sustainable transport habits among staff and visitors. Within this space, 3 Sheffield Stands have been installed, offering secure parking for up to 6 bicycles, including a combination of adult and junior stands to cater to a range of users.
On the right-hand side, the shelter transitions into a secure, enclosed pram storage area. This section is fully clad and fitted with a single swing gate, complete with a digital combination lock to ensure controlled access and peace of mind for families. The inclusion of a central wall divider enhances both security and organisation, clearly separating the two functional areas while maintaining a cohesive overall structure.
Clear PETG cladding has been used on all enclosed sides and the gate, allowing natural light to pass through the shelter while maintaining visibility for safety and supervision. This choice of material not only creates a bright and open feel but also ensures durability and ease of maintenance, these are essential qualities for a high-traffic community setting.
This project demonstrates how a tailored approach to design and installation can deliver a highly functional, durable, and visually cohesive solution. By combining cycle storage with secure pram facilities in a single, well-integrated structure, the Clubmoor Children’s Centre and Family Hub now benefits from an enhanced outdoor space that supports both sustainability and the practical needs of local families.

Cycle Store Upgrade For The Department Of Social Care London UK
We helped improve the condition and usability of the space provided, as well as increasing overall capacity for The Department of Social Cares’ cycle storage unit. Our initial site visit revealed that the cycle store was operating below its potential. The space was fitted with outdated, non-gas assisted two-tier racks that were difficult to operate and discouraged the use of the upper tier. As a result, overall capacity was effectively reduced, users found the experience inconvenient and at times, physically challenging.
We worked closely with our client to asses cyclist usage patterns and evaluated the different types of bicycles commonly stored. It was clear that a one-size-fits-all approach wouldn’t work. The solution needed to accommodate larger bicycles and folding bikes, all within a secure layout.
We designed a layout that maximised the available footprint whilst significantly improving user experience. The first step was to remove the existing Non-Gas Assisted Two-Tier Cycle Racks. We then installed a premium 2ParkUp Gas-Assisted Two-tiersystem. The gas-assisted upper tier dramatically improves usability, making lifting and lowering bicycles far easier and encouraging full use of the available vertical space. Standard lower racks were used for quick and convenient parking. We also installed Sheffield Toast Racksoffering accessible parking for a wide range of cyclists without compromising capacity.
We installed custom Folding Bike Lockers. These secure units provide a practical solution, freeing up internal office space and improving overall building management. To further enhance capacity, we integrated vertical space-saving Parkis Bike Racks, mounted at a 45-degree angle.
While on site, we supported the client with refurbishment works, including repairs and repainting. This ensured the environment was not only functional but also visually refreshed and aligned with the standard of the new installation. We designed, supplied and installed custom instructional signs as part of the storage solution, to offer clear guidance on operating the gas-assisted systems and other parking solutions and ensure safe use of the new equipment.
By reimagining the layout, upgrading outdated equipment and carefully working around spatial constraints, we transformed an underperforming facility into a modern, efficient, and inclusive cycle storage space. The client was extremely pleased with both the outcome and the efficiency with which the upgrade was delivered, resulting in a future-proofed facility that supports sustainable travel and encourages cycling to work.
The cycle store now delivers a substantial increase in parking capacity while offering a far more user-friendly experience. Staff benefit from improved accessibility and a far better storage solution for all types of bicycles.
Great job done from ordering, advice, delivery and construction. Two man crew worked solidly from 7 am to 1pm, refused all offers of coffee and got the bike shelter built despite high winds and rain. Also dismantled our old bike rack.
Excellent company to deal with, all queries and questions answered promptly. Very happy with the service. Very quick delivery from order, the cycle repair stands were well packed and protected and secured to the pallet for transport.
Peter and Joanne were excellent to deal with and hopefully will be dealing with them again to purchase more units.
We received this and it was exactly as described, arrived quickly and securely. The company were a pleasure to deal with and throughout our order made sure we were kept up to date regarding delivery times. An all round great service.
