Installation Surfaces

Conrete

Concrete is the best and least expensive surface material for a variety of rack types and installation methods. Both in-ground and surface mounts work well on concrete and are easy to install.

Pavers and Asphalt

Other hard surfaces such as asphalt, pavers or tile may or may not be suitable for a surface mounted option. Factors affecting the suitability of these materials include the thickness of the surface material, the makeup of the below grade material, and climate. Freestanding racks are recommended for these surface types.

Mulch, Dirt and Grass

For organic materials such as mulch, dirt and grass, you will need a bike rack with a freestanding option, or you may pour concrete footings to anchor the rack down.
