Cycling is not just a fun activity; it is also one of the best exercises that can make children more active, plus parents can also spend quality time with their children whilst cycling to school. Because of the recent ‘Healthy Living’ campaigns that have been seen in the media, many schools have now begun to encourage children to cycle to school.

This has meant there is now more children cycling to school on a regular basis, which in turn means schools need to have sufficient protection for the cycles and bikes of students, staff and teachers.

Bike shelters are therefore becoming essential for schools.

Bike shelters are also useful to parents who come to drop and pick up their children. They can leave their bikes under the cool shade without worrying about the weather. They are safe and convenient and can utilise the available space effectively.

Bike shelters offer a safe, secure, clean and dry place to keep the cycles that pupils use as a mode of transportation. It is important for the shelter to have UV resistance as this helps prevent harmful sun-rays affecting the condition of the cycles or bikes.

Cycle shelters have come a long way in recent years; they can now be stylish and smart in appearance, which adds to the look of the school. The bike shelters are constructed from robust materials which resist extreme weather conditions. They can offer long-lasting performance, no matter how heavy the storm or snow is. They can also offer great protection against damage caused by busy flow of students.

The versatile features of bike shelters offers many exciting benefits. If you have any unused space at your school it can be used for bike shelter to make it a more attractive place. The shelters provide spacious structure to accommodate many bikes.

Bike shelters are available in any colour to match your school building or to brighten up an area which you have. The finish can either be galvanised or powder coated to give you the desired finish.

You can also now get sustainable cycle shelters, made from timber and other environment friendly materials, so not only would you be helping to encourage the health of your students you can also ‘do your bit for the environment’ by installing a sustainable shelter at your school.
