State-of-the-Art Cycle Shelters for Tresham College!
21-09-2012

These are the stylish FalcoGamma double-sided cycle shelters recently installed at Tresham College - Corby Campus, via Hannafin Contractors. As part of the state-of-the-art 36m development, the gull-wing design was chosen for its contemporary, practical and secure design in terms of covered cycle parking. The cycle shelter is powder-coated in Jet Black RAL Colour - 9005 and supplied with 56 Sheffield stands taking the available cycle parking spaces up to 112! Falco also supplied a series of five, high quality Argo-Plus litter bins powder-coated in grey RAL colour 9006.

A design characteristic for this model is the central column that evolves into two upward facing branches. The FalcoGamma is available in both double-sided and single-sided variations.

The cycle shelter, with bowed styling, is clad with 4mm thick, high quality clear polycarbonate roof sheets. The height of the FalcoGamma is 2.10m, the depth for the single sided shelter is 1.91m and the depth for a double sided shelter is 3.70m, the free height under the gutter is 1.53m and length is 4.00m centre to centre between the stanchions.

The shelter can be mounted as a below ground fix or bolted down using base plates which are bolted on to a concrete pad or prefab concrete blocks. The concrete block is 1400 x 250 x 315mm under the stanchion, smaller stanchions can be provided with prefab Falco concrete blocks.
