The Uni Shelter

The ‘Uni shelter’ is a common shelter for large volumes of bikes such as a university or college campus.  It has a classic look and offers a modern yet practical design solution that allows for easy access and secure storage for multiple cycle racks and stands.

This design can also be utilised as a walkway structure by omitting the side panels and adding successive shelters as required to form a modular covered ‘walkway’.  The shelter is a full aluminum modular shelter that offers protection and storage for a large number of cycles in a linear capacity. The capacity can be increased by adding further units together. It’s ideally suited to schools, colleges and universities.  It includes optional end panels to constitute a secure cycle shelter and can include led lights for additional security and visibility. Most cycle stands and racks can be installed inside this shelter design. The shelter can also be supplied with a fully integrated factory fitted LED lighting system with the LEDS neatly set into the cross beams providing discrete and energy efficient lighting to the shelter or walkway.
