Cycle Shelter Installation Kettering General Hospital NHS Foundation Trust

We were delighted to support Kettering General Hospital NHS Foundation Trust with the supply and installation of a 12-space Greasby Cycle Shelter, delivering a secure cycling facility for staff.

The Greasby Cycle Shelter was selected for its visually appealing design, to blend naturally into the projects surrounding footprint, maintaining a professional environment.

The shelter’s clear design ensures that stored bicycles remain in full view of the surrounding area, creating natural surveillance that acts as a strong deterrent to theft. As part of the clients request we prepared the shelter by fitting a duct with internal wiring, ready for an electric Magneto lock system to be installed by the client themselves. The balance between accessibility and protection gives cyclists confidence that their bikes are safe throughout their shift.

Internally, the shelter is equipped with Semi-Vertical Cycle Racks, an efficient solution that maximises bike capacity. This configuration allows 12 bicycles to be stored comfortably while maintaining safe spacing and ease of use.

The completed installation delivers a secure and practical cycle parking solution that supports the hospital’s wider sustainability goals. By providing dedicated, high-quality cycle storage, the new facility actively encourages staff to consider cycling as a viable and reliable commuting option.

This project demonstrates how well-designed infrastructure can positively influence travel behaviour, even within complex and high-traffic environments such as healthcare facilities. The Greasby Cycle Shelter now stands as a visible commitment to sustainable transport at Kettering General Hospital, offering staff a safe and secure place to store their bikes while promoting healthier, greener commuting choices.
