Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about Sheffield Cycle Stand – Galvanised Bike Hoop, including specification, layout, installation and commercial project requirements.
What are the dimensions of the Sheffield Cycle Stand?
Our standard Sheffield Cycle Stand measures approximately750 mm high × 750 mm wideand is manufactured from robust steel tube for commercial cycle parking applications. The familiar hoop design allows bicycles to be supported and locked securely at multiple points.
What is the Sheffield Cycle Stand manufactured from?
The stand is manufactured from48.6 mm diameter × 3 mm wall steel tube, providing a durable solution for regular use in schools, workplaces, residential developments, public spaces and commercial cycle parking areas.
Is the Sheffield Cycle Stand galvanised?
Yes. The standard Sheffield Cycle Stand is supplied with a galvanised finish, providing durable corrosion protection for suitable indoor and external cycle parking applications.
What spacing should be allowed between Sheffield Cycle Stands?
The spacing depends on the required cycle capacity, the proposed arrangement and the available circulation space.
For commercial cycle parking schemes, sufficient room should be provided for bicycles, handlebars, locking access and safe manoeuvring.
If you send us your available dimensions and required cycle capacity, we can help review a suitable layout.
How many bicycles can one Sheffield Stand accommodate?
A Sheffield Stand can typically accommodate two bicycles, with one cycle parked on either side of the hoop, provided the overall layout allows suitable spacing and access between stands.
For commercial schemes, the spacing between stands should be considered alongside cycle dimensions, access routes and manoeuvring space.
How are the Sheffield Cycle Stands fixed to the ground?
The standard bolt-down version incorporates substantial base plates for secure fixing to a suitable prepared surface.
The fixing method should be selected according to the substrate and site conditions. For project installations, Cycle-In can help review the proposed location and fixing requirements.
Where are Sheffield Cycle Stands typically used?
Sheffield Cycle Stands are widely used for cycle parking at:
- Workplaces and offices
- Schools and academies
- Residential developments
- Student accommodation
- Leisure and community facilities
- Public-sector sites
- Retail and commercial developments
- External cycle parking areas
Their simple, robust design makes them one of the most versatile forms of commercial cycle parking.
Can Sheffield Stands be incorporated into a BREEAM cycle storage scheme?
Yes. Sheffield Stands can form part of a cycle parking layout designed to support BREEAM-related project requirements.
However, final compliance depends on the complete project design, including capacity, location, accessibility, security and the applicable assessment criteria. A cycle stand by itself should not be described as making an entire development BREEAM compliant.
