Our cycle lockers offer:
Why Provide Cycle Lockers ?In our crowded towns and cities the bicycle is, more often than not, the quickest and most reliable way of getting from A to B. At peak times a journey by bicycle frequently takes half the time as the same journey made by car. Gridlock on our roads is commonplace and can be created by almost anything, from breakdowns to school runs or just shear volume of commuting traffic. Every journey made by bicycle goes towards easing the congestion on today's roads. It helps the environment and increases safety on the road for our children and other vulnerable road users. Government statistics prove that many people travel quite short distances to their place of work. For some of those people public transport is not an option, for others it doesn't fit their work pattern. Today's bicycles are not only ultra reliable but are almost maintenance free, with none of the spiralling tax, insurance, fuel and servicing costs associated with cars -how much is a full service these days? Very stylish lightweight breathable clothing will protect the rider from the very worst of the English weather, (no more sweaty nylon water proofs) and can be stored in the cycle locker with the bike. Many people would like the opportunity to adopt a healthier life style, but the large amount of cycle theft deters many from making a straightforward journey to and from their place of work. How many times have you walked past a post or fence, which has the remains of some ones mountain bike chained to it? We at Elite believe that if a bike can be seen then the "would be" thief can assess its value as a "trade on". After that locks and chains are no deterrent. We also believe that lockers provide the best security for storing cycles (and motorcycles for that matter). Lockers are quick and easy to use - typically a sequence of opening the door, putting the bike and cycling gear in (no need to remove lights and saddle and front wheel and attempt to or lace a lock through), and locking the door takes about 30 seconds. As the cycle is no longer visible any would-be thief has no idea of value or whether the Locker is even in use. Also the importance of facilities like cycle lockers is well documented. Cycling to work is designated as a "suppressed demand" by European governments. Although commuters do not ask employers for cycle lockers, it has been proven time and time again that if facilities are provided, commuters are more than happy to switch to bicycles. Elite produces a complete range of cycle lockers that arrive ready assembled on site in your choice of colour(s) So whether you are an employer looking to offer your employees a healthier, cheaper travel option or an estate and facilities manager resolving storage issues, contact us now for more information on our range of cycle lockers.
