What is long-term bicycle parking?
Compared to short-term parking, long-term bike parking provides greater security and better protection from the elements. It’s designed to meet the bike storage needs of daily bike commuters, housing residents, and public transit users. The likelihood of an individual riding to their final destination is increased when higher-quality, sheltered bike parking is available. Below, we’ll break down the different styles and applications of long-term bike parking.
Bike SheltersFully enclosed, covered bike shelters provide excellent long-term bicycle parking options if the outdoor space is available. Shelters like the Dero Bike Depot and Stratus Shelter™ offer great customizability to accommodate varying levels of security, modular expansion, and styles of bike parking. Two-tiered and vertical bike racks pair especially well with bike shelters, since they can fit more bicycles in less space.
Bike LockersBicycle lockers provide the highest level of individual bike security, giving users peace of mind when parking their bike for extended periods. Lockers are increasingly popular at transit hubs owing to their modular design and ability to accommodate multimodal transit users. At Dero, we’ve designed an entire line up of two and singled sided bike lockers to fit a wide array of floor plans and design requirements.
