Case Studies
The University of Loughborough originally contacted Falco back in May 2010 when the requirement for a cycle shelter became apparent due to the increasing amount of students travelling to university by bike. Falco were then able to provide the University of Loughborough with a variety of cycle parking solutions and cycle shelters which would fit within their budget and provided the exact cycle parking services the university was looking for. The FalcoZan 180 cycle shelter was soon the product identified to meet the university’s cycle parking requirements with the addition of the FalcoToaster to support the bicycles. The images attached shows the robust FalcoZan 180 cycle shelter installation complete with a sliding gate.
Following the successful completion of this cycle shelter and due to a further increase of students travelling to university by bike, the University of Loughborough requested a further two more FalcoZan 180 cycle shelters to keep pace with their student’s requirement for additional cycle parking.
FalcoZan 180 Cycle Shelter
The FalcoZan 180 cycle shelter is a neat and simple design of open cycle shelter, ideal to meet all applications. Available in both single and double sided versions, the FalcoZan is a vandal resistant steel cycle shelter with optional side cladding in hardwood slats, corrugated aluzinc sheets, steel mesh or other finishes on application. The standard 4m wide cycle shelter has a steel fascia integral to the roof section which also has an integral rainwater collection/outlet.
Single Sided Cycle Shelter
The FalcoZan-180 is the single sided version of the product range. A base module is 3,980mmwide x 2,495mm deep, with a free head height of 2,100mm. The base module can be added to - to create a cycle shelter as wide as required, by using standard ‘add-on’ units. The cycle shelter steelwork and roof are hot dip galvanised as standard with an option to polyester powder coat on top of this substrate if required.
