Product Description
Secure by Design Two Tier Bike Rack
The Two Tier Cycle Rack is a high-density storage solution that has become a staple across residential, commercial and public sector projects throughout the UK. Our Secure by Design variant builds on this proven platform with Sold Secure Silver accreditation and Police Preferred Specification status, giving architects, developers and contractors a security-certified two tier rack for projects where independently accredited cycle storage is required.
Independently Tested Security
The Sold Secure Silver rating means this rack has been independently tested against a defined tool list including heavy manual and light electrical tools. For specifiers working to Secure by Design guidelines, local planning conditions or client security briefs, it provides documented evidence of attack resistance and a clear, auditable compliance route that standard, non-certified racks cannot offer. Heavy-duty welded locking hoops on both tiers allow cyclists to secure frame and wheels at multiple points, delivering reliable theft deterrence across every parking space.
Standard & Gas-Assisted Configurations
The Secure by Design Two Tier Cycle Rack is available in two configurations to suit project requirements and user expectations:
- Standard Two Tier: The upper tier slides out and lowers using a counterbalanced mechanism, providing a simple loading and unloading process without external assistance. A cost-effective, low-maintenance solution for high-density environments.
- Gas-Assisted Two Tier: The upper tier operates using tamper-proof gas struts, enabling smooth, controlled lowering and lifting with minimal effort. Ideal for developments where ease of use and accessibility are priorities. Available with a choice of V1 or V2 CHS handles to suit user preference and project specification.
Both configurations feature staggered rack heights for improved accessibility. Sheffield Cycle Stands are supplied as standard on the lower tier, offering enhanced compatibility for larger bicycles and e-bikes. Lower channel options are available as an upgrade to suit specific project requirements.
Space-Optimised Layout
The two tier system effectively doubles parking capacity compared to single-tier racks, making it the go-to solution for constrained internal areas. Standard spacing is 375mm centres on single-sided installations and 400mm centres on double-sided layouts, with bespoke spacing available on request. The modular format allows racks to be expanded to match current and future demand across phased developments.
Durable & Low Maintenance
Constructed from hot-dipped galvanised steel to BS EN ISO 1461:2022, the rack is built for long-term performance in high-traffic environments. Optional polyester powder-coating in any standard RAL colour allows the rack to integrate with the architectural setting of the site. Tamper-proof gas struts on gas-assisted models are engineered for sustained daily use with minimal servicing requirements.
