Well-designed bike storage increases property value, making it a wise investment for both commercial and residential developments. In today’s urban environments, where space and sustainability are key priorities, any amenity or thoughtful design that enhances user appeal can make a real difference. From improving convenience and promoting greener lifestyles to elevating the look and feel of a property, modern bike facilities can significantly boost the value of your urban development. Here’s how…
Commercial office spaces
Appeals to a wider demographic
Modern bike storage helps office spaces become more marketable by attracting a wider demographic. If you’re a developer hoping to attract forward-thinking companies, or an employer looking to hire the best talent, increase the desirability of your workplace with sustainable commuting options.
For example, our sleek and space-saving Premium Solo Vertical Bike Rack is perfect for urban upscale offices, a great incentive for attracting a wider pool of young, health-conscious professionals. With the rise of cycling in the UK, providing somewhere secure for employees to store their bikes will give your workplace a competitive advantage.

Greener lifestyles
As more companies introduce sustainable initiatives, onboard employees so they can get involved. A study by the University of Oxford found that people who switch just one trip a day from driving to cycling, reduce their carbon footprint by about 500 kilos a year.
Alongside Cycle to Work Schemes, providing bike storage empowers employees to change their daily lifestyle habits to make a real difference; something they can be proud of as they are contributing to something bigger.
If your company is looking for sustainable bike racks, our bike storage is Made in Britain and BREEAM accredited, meeting the global benchmarks for best practices in sustainable design, construction and operation.
An easy alternative
When trains get cancelled or tubes are on strike, cycling offers a cheap, flexible way to get to work. With urban cities like London investing in better cycling path infrastructure and e-bike charging points, workplace bike storage ensures employees have everything they need to complete their commute.
Whether that’s our Habitat Panel Shelter, Two-Tier E-Bike Racks or end-of-trip facilities like secure Westminster Lockers cycling will seem more appealing when public transport fails.

Supports physical and mental wellbeing
Supporting eco-friendly commuting not only helps the environment, but also the wellbeing of employees. Starting the day with fresh air and movement is especially important in sedentary jobs where teams are sat at their desks all day.
Promoting exercise with durable bike storage means employees can feel happier and calmer at work, which in turn increases the number of eco-friendly commutes.
Investing in modern bike storage is one way to beat the climate crisis in urban cities. Bikes are the past, present and the future, so inspire employees to cycle into work, by providing them with the means to do so, and facilities they want to use. Join the ride.
Elevates the look and feel
Increase property value by making your office space smarter, prettier and more peaceful. One easy way to achieve this is by adding a touch of nature to your development with biodiverse bike storage solutions. For example, our Dartmoor Sedum Roof Shelter has a living roof system to add greenery to the space, and our Habitat Panel Shelter helps to attract bees and butterflies.
Bike shelters with sedum roofs also reduce CO2 and limit surface run-off from rainfall. They’re attractive with environmental benefits!

Futureproof your office
Bike storage is a moderately low investment with long term returns, so prepare for a greener future with innovative e-bike parking (like our secure E-Bike Charging Shelter). Employees can safely park their e-bikes at work, while keeping them charged at the same time. It’s these thoughtful details that add value, practicality and convenience to a workplace. Build offices of the future with facilities that promote sustainability and they’ll used for years to come.
Making best use of space
Installing secure bike sheds outdoors frees up indoor space for other high value office amenities like communal areas, bin rooms, underground car parking and lockers . Together, these amenities contribute to the overall property value, so consider the most effective ways to maximise the space and layout to benefit the end user to increase property value.

Residential flats or properties
Frees up indoor space
When it comes to residential developments, potential buyers value space. Providing secure bike storage on-site means they don’t have to cram their bikes into hallways, stairways or communal areas. The less clutter, the better. Take a look at our smart and earthy Amazon Eco Shelter, made from FSC-certified hardwood so it blends naturally with your outdoor areas. Not only will properly installed bike storage impact property value, but it will improve tenant satisfaction and attract more buyers.
Higher Valuations
Thoughtful bike sheds with secure locking systems (such as FOB keys), weatherproof lighting and gated access are simple ways to add value to your property. Especially if you aim to attract health-conscious families and young couples who prioritise safety and security. Our bike storage comes with a range of secure locking options to choose from, so get in touch today to find out more…
