Bike Racks

12 products

Bike racks are the supports used to keep bicycles tidy in garages, cellars, shared courtyards of apartment blocks and utility rooms. The collection includes floor-standing, wall-mounted and modular models, as well as hooks for hanging the bicycle.

Types available

  • Wall-mounted bike racks, to free up the floor
  • Bike hooks, for hanging the bike by the wheel or the frame
  • Modular floor-standing bike racks, expandable according to the number of bicycles

How to choose

It depends on how many bicycles you need to store and the space available: wall-mounted if the floor is occupied, floor-standing or modular if you need several. Check the type of fixing and the material, galvanised or painted, if the rack is to stay outdoors.

For use in apartment blocks or shared rooms, it is worth allowing enough space between one bike and the next, so that they can be taken out without moving the others.

Frequently asked questions: Bike Racks
Which bike rack should I choose for the garage if the floor is already taken?

If the floor is taken, a wall-mounted bike rack frees up the walkway and keeps the bicycle lifted off the ground. The bike hook, which hangs the bike by the wheel or by the frame, takes up very little space but needs a solid wall. Check the available space and the clear height, so that you choose the model that leaves the passage comfortably clear.

How many bikes is a wall-mounted bike rack suitable for, and when should I choose the modular one?

In the catalogue the wall-mounted bike racks go from one place up to four, such as the 4-place wall model item no. 3004. Count the bicycles you need to store and choose a model with enough places, without the wheels overlapping. If you expect to add more bikes over time, consider the modular floor-standing bike rack, which can be extended according to the number of bicycles.

Is the wide-wheel bike rack suitable for mountain bikes?

The wide-wheel model is designed for bicycles with wide-section tyres, such as mountain bikes. Before buying, measure the width of the tyre and compare it with the seat of the support, so that the wheel goes in without forcing. If the bike has very wide tyres, also check the side clearance needed to hang it.

How do I fix a bike rack to the wall without damaging the wall?

Fixing is done with wall plugs suited to the wall material: concrete, hollow brick and plasterboard need different types. Before drilling, check that there are no electrical cables or pipes, and mark the holes with a spirit level. The bike rack must stay horizontal and firmly fixed, because it supports a raised bicycle.

How do I install and use bike hook item no. 4110?

The hook is fixed to the wall and is used to hang the bicycle by the wheel or by the frame, freeing the floor. Choose a height that lets you lift the bike without effort, away from the walkway. Rest the frame carefully and use a cloth or a soft support at the contact point, to avoid scratching the paint.

How does a modular floor-standing bike rack grow over time?

The modular bike rack is built in modules: start from the base and add elements when more bays are needed. It is useful in blocks of flats and courtyards where the number of bicycles changes over time. Choose the base according to the current number and check that the elements belong to the same system before extending.

Is the galvanised steel floor-standing bike rack suitable for outdoors?

Floor-standing models in galvanised or tropicalised zinc-plated steel are designed to resist corrosion better than plain steel. In a courtyard exposed to rain or in a damp room they are a more suitable choice, while in a dry garage stability matters most. Fix it to the floor where provided, and check every year for rust or loose parts.
