GT250 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) Not sure if this is in the correct part of the forum but I guess it's an accessory.After badgering my boss for months that we need a motorbike shelter at work he has finally gave in.He has tasked me to source one, I have a maximum of £6k (he will not budge a penny over). Ideally it will be able to house 12 bikes.We already have an area specifically for motorbike parking, it's about 15m wide.I googled hell out of it last night but everything is coming up over budget Anyone any ideas? Links? Edited March 11, 2014 by GT250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestRunner Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I use my school's bike sheds. So on that front what about something like this?http://www.bikedocksolutions.com/prod_name/bds-40-space-bike-shelter.aspxJust not using the internal rail system to make moving bikes around easier...

mealexme Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I think your best bet would be to get something similar to this http://www.movingsomersetforward.co.uk/files/uploads/images/new_developments/DSCF8236.jpgIt has a bar running along it too, so you can lock the bike up. http://www.movingsomersetforward.co.uk/files/uploads/images/new_developments/DSCF8239.jpgIt has a roof and 3 sides to protect from the weather and the sides don't go right down to the bottom, so water and leaves can blow out, rather than getting stuck in the corners. If that type of thing is too expensive, then do it without the sides (ie, just a roof), but the bar to attach locks to is important imo.
