Prima Cycle Racks & Shelters

Cycle stands come in all shapes and sizes, for individual cycles or in a rack for multiple storage. The most common stand known as a Sheffield, is a tubular rail in a U shape for one or two bikes. This can be galvanised, powder coated any standard RAL colour or stainless steel. All individual bike stands can either be concreted into ground or come with base plates for bolting to a concrete surface.

A line of Sheffield style stands are connected and bolted down in a row, this is called a ‘toast rack’. Other stands can be wall fixed for front or rear wheel padlocking, although this type is not secure unless the padlock also wraps around the frame of the bike.

Multiple bike stands are required for all new build flats and apartments. In these areas space is often limited, so vertical or semi-vertical cycle racks are a high priority. The stands come piece meal and are installed on site with adjoining rows for a minimum of 4 cycles and a maximum of 10 in one rack. Manufactured from aluminum and bolted together, they can also include a aluminum roof saving cost on having a separate cycle store.
