Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to common specification and installation questions regarding the Semi-Vertical Cycle Rack.
What is the advantage of a semi-vertical cycle rack?
Semi-vertical racks angle bicycles upward to reduce the horizontal footprint required per space. This allows higher parking density than traditional floor-mounted racks, without requiring the lifting effort of a two-tier system.
Where is the Semi-Vertical Cycle Rack typically specified?
It is commonly specified for apartment developments, office buildings, universities and secure cycle rooms where space efficiency is critical but full two-tier storage is not required.
How does this differ from a vertical or two-tier system?
Unlike full vertical systems, semi-vertical racks keep both wheels closer to the ground and are typically easier to manoeuvre. Compared to two-tier systems, they offer simplified operation while still improving overall capacity.
Can the racks be installed in linear runs?
Yes. Semi-vertical racks are commonly installed in alternating or linear configurations to optimise spacing and circulation within bike rooms or sheltered compounds.
Does this support planning and active travel requirements?
Yes. By increasing parking density within a controlled footprint, the Semi-Vertical Cycle Rack helps developments meet required cycle parking quotas and active travel objectives set by local authorities.
What preparation is required before installation?
Installation requires fixing into a structurally suitable concrete slab or floor base. Technical drawings and spacing guidance are provided to ensure compliant layout planning and secure installation.
