Timber-Clad Bin Compound

Each bin compound is made to suit the available space and number and type of bins being stored. Our standard referencece size is 4000mm(W) x 6000mm (D) x 1800mm (H), however the width, depth, height and gate arrange can all be adapted to meet your project requirements.

The compound used a robust welded-and-bolted steel frame with vertical PAR treated timber in a hit-and-miss arrangement. This provides an attractive screened enclosure while retaining natural airflow around the bins. Alternative cladding materials are also available on request.

The steelwork can be supplied hot-dip galvanised for long-term corrosion protection or powder coated in a choice of standard RAL colours. A galvanised and powder-coated fuinish can also be specified where enhanced protetion and a particular colour are required.

Yes. The PAR softwood is preservative treated for external use. As timber is a natural material, its colour will gradually weather over time; an appropriate exterior timber treatment can be reapplied periodically if you wish to retain its original appearance.

Yes. The compound can be supplied as an open-top enclosure or designed with a roof. Roof specifications are assessed against the compound size, site exposure,drainage requirements and any local planning or structural considerations.

A hasp-and-staple closure and drop-down gate bolt are supplies as the standard arrangement. Other options-including provision for padlocks, key-operated locks, digital locks and access-control systems can be considered to suit the way the store will be managed.

Two full-height swing gates provde a generous clear opening for moving wheeled bins in and out of the compound. The gate position, opening direction and overall access width can be reviewd during design to suit the intended collection route and available space.

The frame is surface fixed to a suitable level concrete base using adjustable feet and appropriate mechanical anchors. The supporting slab must be sound, level and capable of accepting the proposed fixings. We can review the base requirements with you before manufacture or installation.

Yes. Delivery and professional installation are available throughout mainland Great Britain. The quotation will confirm the delivery method, installation scope and any site-access or lifting requirements. Supply-only projects can also be considered where suitable contractors are available on site.

Please provide the proposed location, available width and depth, required height, number and type of bins, preferred finish and cladding, roof requirement, gate position, locking preference and delivery postcode. Photographs or a simple marked-up site plan are also helpful and allow us to prepare a more accurate proposal.
