A new ‘artistic' cycle locker project recently took place at the De Schelf primary school in Gravendeel, in the Netherlands. Valtos Architects required an innovative and eye-catching secure store to encourage the use of cycling amongst its student base. Falco responded to this request by taking the traditional FalcoLok design a step further and used trespa wall panels to create a state-of-the-art cycle storage facility. The image attached shows the completed cycle store installation, using a combination of bold colours with the sleek FalcoLok design!   FalcoLok Store Range The FalcoLok is a very versatile range of stores providing a lockable storage facility. Available in a modular range, the FalcoLok design can be supplied in 2,500mm, 3000mm or 5000mm modules - up to any size. Useful for storing a wide range of items such as; cycles, equipment, bins etc, the FalcoLok store is a robust and vandal resistant utilitarian product but with a great design. FalcoLok-250 The FalcoLok-250 is the smallest version of the FalcoLok range. It measures 2,500mm across the front x 3,980mm deep, with a door in the front section as standard (though it is optional to place one in the side). The store has an overall height of 2,250mm and a free head height of 2,100mm. FalcoLok-300 The FalcoLok-300 is a larger variant of the FalcoLok range measuring 3,120mm at the front x 3,980mm deep. The height is the same as for all the FalcoLok products - 2,250mm overall height and 2,100mm free head height. FalcoLok-500 The FalcoLok-500 is the biggest shelter of the FalcoLok family.

Following Falco's innovative cycle locker project at the Old Tobacco factory in Laren, Holland last year, the requirement for shelters and stores with a sedum roof has significantly increased as architects and specifiers look for shelters in line with their environmental plan. Our latest project takes place at the Kindcampus Grootstal primary school in Nijmegen, Holland, using the popular FalcoLok store with steel cladding. Falco manufactured and installed the robust locker with a sedum green roof to provide a lockable facility for pupils to store play equipment whilst keeping a natural and secluded appearance. The image attached shows the exquisite FalcoLok store on a crisp January morning! Not only does the robust store provide a secure area to store equipment, but the truly remarkable aspect of the shelter lies within the green roof that has been customised to accommodate a roof lining of sedum. The sedum roof is an eye-catching aspect within the school and creates a relaxed and natural atmosphere as well as being an environmentally friendly feature. Over the last 50 years, Falco have gained extensive experience in working at project level in collaboration with architects, quantity surveyors and estimators to design project specific shelter and canopy products.
