What the system works out
You choose the rack type (U-shaped, spiral, wall-mounted), the number of spaces and whether a shelter is needed. The system shows:
- the rack count and price by the number of spaces;
- the shelter structure (if selected): posts, beams, polycarbonate roofing;
- the ground-fixing materials: concrete anchors or base plates;
- the surface (pavers or asphalt) by the area.
Racks and shelter
U-shaped racks are the most reliable — the bike rests on two points and the frame can be locked. One U-rack holds 2 bikes.
- Racks are fixed with anchor bolts into concrete or welded to a base plate.
- A shelter keeps the rain off. The most popular: polycarbonate on steel posts or a timber frame with corrugated sheeting.
- The system calculates the shelter area by the number of spaces (min. 0.7 m width per bike).
