Our team at SECURE Cycle Store was recently invited to survey the area at Pavilion Point and evaluate the best options for bike storage.

THE SOLUTION

After careful consideration and analysis, we determined that the most suitable solution was to concrete a landscaped area adjacent to the car park. This approach not only maximises the available space at Pavilion Point, but also adds an aesthetic value to the area.

To enhance the aesthetic appeal of the space, we selected a low-level, bespoke timber clad facade. This color choice not only complements the architectural colors of the area but also adds a modern and sleek look to the bike storage area at Pavilion Point.

The facade houses Six Two-Bike Lockers In Anthracite Grey, providing ample storage space for residents to store their bikes, equipment, and accessories. This solution not only promotes cycling as a form of transportation at Pavilion Point but also keeps the area organised and clutter-free.

SECURE Cycle Store Delivers 345 Bike Spaces at Atlas Building, London

Commercial Bike Storage Solutions for the Atlas Building and WeWork

SECURE Cycle Store recently completed a major cycle storage project at the Atlas Building in London, home to the renowned WeWork co-working space. The brief was clear: create a secure, efficient, and user-friendly internal cycle store capable of accommodating 345 bicycles while maximising the available floor space.

Through careful planning, innovative design, and the installation of industry-leading cycle parking systems, our team successfully delivered a high-capacity bike storage solution that met both the client’s operational requirements and the needs of daily cyclists.

Designing a Functional and Cyclist-Friendly Cycle Store

Creating a practical cycle storage facility in a restricted internal space required a strategic approach. Our design team focused on three key objectives:

By carefully assessing the available space and anticipated usage patterns, we developed a layout that efficiently accommodated 345 bike spaces without compromising accessibility or user experience.

Space-Saving Bike Racks That Maximise Capacity

To achieve the required capacity, SECURE Cycle Store installed a combination of:

These innovative cycle storage products are specifically designed to maximise bicycle parking density while ensuring ease of use.

Two-Tier Bike Racks

Our Two-Tier Bike Racks significantly increased storage capacity by utilising vertical space, allowing more bicycles to be stored within the same footprint. The user-friendly lifting mechanism ensures cyclists can easily access both upper and lower parking positions.

Semi-Vertical Bike Racks

Semi-Vertical Bike Racks provided an additional space-efficient solution, reducing aisle widths while maintaining convenient bike access. This system is particularly effective in commercial buildings, offices, and high-density cycle stores.

Folding Bike Lockers

To enhance security, Folding Bike Lockers were incorporated into the design. These lockers provide cyclists with added protection and peace of mind, ensuring valuable bikes remain secure while users work or visit the building.

Delivering Secure Bike Storage for Modern Workspaces

As cycling continues to grow across London, businesses and commercial property owners are increasingly investing in high-quality cycle parking facilities. The Atlas Building project demonstrates how intelligent bike storage design can support sustainable transport initiatives while improving amenities for building occupants.

Semi-vertical bike racks in London, newly installed in the basement area after being securely bolted to the ground.

When living in communal buildings, you want to know if you can store your bikes somewhere that has a large perimeter, so you can be sure you have enough space to access your bike, without having to take up space in communal corridors and stairways. There is a wide range of sizes, shapes, and functionalities when it comes to bike storage for apartment buildings, and you need to know your bike will be secure from thieves, vandals, and harsh weather conditions.

This article will break down some brilliant products that would make a great addition to any shared residential building. Read on to hear more. 

BIKE SHELTERS

With most bike shelters, you are given the room to safely manoeuvre and securely store your bike, without the need to clutter much-needed areas such as corridors and stairways. 

Whether it is an open or enclosed bike storage solution you are looking for, you will always have something that will keep your belongings out of reach from the elements. However, the positives gained from enclosed bike storage are the added security features. Heavy-duty doors & gates, coded & digital locks and lighting are the attributes you can expect with enclosed bike shelter storage.  

Another great benefit of bike shelters is the vast number of designs that fit with the environment’s aesthetic. Here at Secure Cycle Store, all our shelters can be manufactured to fit your desired needs, because we understand the need for security and aesthetics.

VERTICAL BIKE LOCKERS

One of the advantages of these products is the amount of space saved in a bike storage area. They are compact and discreet, so fitting them next to the bin store or down the side of the apartment building is easily done. Next to that, no/low maintenance is involved, meaning no rotting will occur and no repainting will be needed.  

With vertical bike lockers, you are offered amazing security features from pick and drill-resistant locks with reinforced handle surround, and as standard, they are securely bolted to the ground.  

These features make this product the ideal solution for bike storage for apartment buildings and it doesn’t stop there! 

PEDAL POST COMPACT

These unique and compact bike stands are great if you need something that won’t take up much room and are just as functional and take up less floor space than your usual Sheffield Stand. The Pedal Post Compact is a great form of bike storage for communal living spaces, as it can hold two bikes with multiple locking points but with a stylish edge. What more could you ask for?

bike storage for garden

Your garden offers the ideal space to store your bikes, essential tools and equipment when space is limited in the garage or house. Bike storage for the garden will secure your belongings in a weather-resistant space, as the garden does not provide cover and security like a garage or house. It is important to consider the range of products that will offer you this and more. 

Here you will find the best range of garden bike storage solutions, from bike lockers to wooden and metal sheds. Keep reading to find out more.

BIKE SHEDS

Installing bike storage for the garden gives you a designated space to store your bike and essential equipment, leaving home hallways and communal walkways clear and less cluttered. Wooden bike sheds offer a range of large sizes and security, with multiple locking points for your bike and include ground anchors, keeping the shed bolted to the ground. 

Metal bike sheds will offer you just as much space with more security. These low to no-maintenance storage solutions are great features for the garden as harsh weather conditions won’t affect the security, functionality and aesthetic of the shed.    

BIKE LOCKERS

Bike lockers are the ideal solution if you need something compact, discreet, and SECURE. Lockers won’t give you the same space a bike shed would, however, they offer lots of safety features such as, multiple locking points and space to store essential equipment. Bike lockers range in shape and size, which makes them a great addition next to communal bin stores. 

 
Another positive with garden storage, you are able to organise your essentials from bikes to accessories, so you can be sure they are nearby when you need them most.

bike shelter for home

People usually move houses to live closer to work or relocate to a bigger home. When you move, you have to mull over many things such as energy suppliers and broadband connections in preparation. Papernest makes this easier by moving your existing utilities contracts over for you as well as making sure that you are getting the best deal – check out their website for further information.

You also know that while moving house you have to re-organise your belongings such as clothes, appliances, vehicles etc. properly, especially if you have limited space. 

Often people find it difficult to store their bikes in a new space since building a garage or new space may be expensive. In this article we run through some tips on finding and creating secure bike storage for your bikes in your new home.

How to store bikes after moving house?

It might be tough to store your bike, especially if your new home is has limited outdoor areas. If you are lucky, your new house or apartment may have designated space for your bikes. In this case you may want to skip down to our tips on space saving and securing your bike with our Sold Secure fixings. If you do not have a designated bike parking area then let’s start with that:

Choosing a suitable bike parking space.

The first step in setting up your new bike store is finding the best location for it. This will vary hugely depending upon the type of property that you are moving into, but you want to try and find something that is;

Accessible: the more accessible your bike is the more likely that you are to use it!

Secure: a lot of bikes get stored outside. This is usually for a number of reasons; you don’t want the bike getting in the way of your living space, and you don’t want a bike bringing dirt into your home! Keeping your bike outside leaves it more vulnerable to theft, so it is important to consider security as much as possible.

Space saving: unless you have the luxury of lots of space, this is also usually a significant consideration for most of us. To save space, hanging a bike on a suitable wall is your best bet, although this is not always possible.

Let’s look at each one of these issues in a bit more depth:

Accessible bike parking spaces

Choosing a bike parking space that is accessible and easy to get to will mean that you’re more likely to use your bike! This is better for your body, your wallet and the environment than most other methods of transport, so the more you can do it, the better!

The most accessible bike space will be determined by your home’s layout, however something to bear in mind is that most bikes are around 1.8 metres long, 0.7 metres wide and 1.2 metres high. So this is the space the bike will require when stored. Do not forget that you will also need some space to manoeuvre yourself and bike to the bike space!

Space saving bike parking spaces

Usually saving space is also high on the agenda. The most space efficient way of storing a bike is vertically, using one of our vertical bike wall hangers. Multiple wall hangers can be fitted to a wall at staggered heights, so the bikes can be stored closer together without the handle bars touching to further save space.

If space is not such an issue, then you may want to consider a more secure bike shed or bike locker, which take up a little more space, but provide much more security and protection for your bikes.

Secure bike parking spaces

It is important that once you have chosen where you are going to store your bike, you make sure it is as secure as it can be to help avoid theft.

Access and lighting to the space is extremely important, as these factors will help deter thieves in the first place. 

We provide a range of hasp & staples, padlocks and ground anchors to lock your bike to. Many of our products have a Sold Secure rating, which means they have been independently attack tested with the rating showing how secure they are. Ultimately the best way to deter a thief is by putting them off in the first place with security lights and CCTV if possible.

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.
