Staff Cycle Stand Solution For Deliveroo

Posted on 06/04/2018

Street Furniture Direct was approached by Deliveroo to resolve their staff cycling issue. Having conducted a site visit and concluded that the most cost-effective solution was Semi Vertical Cycle Stands.

Deliveroo advised that the lead-time was critical so Street Furniture Direct had the Semi-Verticals dispatched on a next day carriage and was installed the following day. From the first enquiry to completion took a mere four days.

This makes assembly easy as child's play! In addition, the seat is flush with the sides - giving a little extra space when needed. Since the seat is slightly arched, rainwater flows off quickly.

Houses of Parliament

Posted on 05/01/2018

The Double Decker Cycle Stands were chosen because they provided the ideal number of parking bays for the amount of space that was available. The Double Decker Cycle Rack is one of the most popular products that SFD manufactures.

This project was one of the most challenging installations SFD has undertaken due to the restrictions onsite, security was the main priority which meant the stands had to be delivered to a separate site 45 miles away and then escorted in by parliament. The building itself is historic which can cause many issues with installing on site. 

The installation took over 4 days to complete due to the extra security measures.

During this time the numerous complications were resolved, such as a fork truck could not be operated within the area so everything had to be hand carried, and the security on site being unprecedented.
