View our range of bicycle parking rails, multiple bike racks, vertical wall and post mounted bike racks, 2 tier parking systems and dynamic bike racks.
The EXPO Series is the proven solution where multiple bicycle parking spaces are required. As a proprietary Registered Design, the Expo Series has become Austaralia's most popular multi-bike rack.
The CBR Series offers a simple and effective solution that can be installed to accommodate 1‐100's of bikes in an unlimited variety of configurations and in challenging spaces.
Where maximum capacity is critical and ceiling heights allow, Cora Bike Rack's 2 tier bike racks offer the ability to increase capacity of a bike room by over 100%.
Recognising that space is a expensive and limited resource for buildings, AS2890.3 (2015) introduced the concept of 'Dynamic' bike racks. Compliant Dynamic rack designs can increase capacity in a given space by 20%.
View our range of bike lockers designed to keep bikes safe and provide cyclists with peace of mind. Models include single door, double door, vertical and 2 tier lockers.
Primary and secondary schools, TAFE's, Universities and recreation facilities all face an increasing need to provide an organised and secure parking solution for skateboards and scooters.
Complete your EOT change room facility with Australia's most secure & stylish changeroom lockers that provide cyclists the ideal place to store their riding and work clothes.
Confirm with local council and/or Green Star requirements before proceeding. Tick each item as confirmed; mark N/A where not applicable to this project.
Project context
Local council requirements for bicycle parking confirmed
Check DA conditions — number of spaces and class required by local council
Green Star requirements confirmed (if applicable)
Green Star credits may specify class and minimum quantities
Total number of required bicycle spaces determined
Class A — individual lockers (highest security)
Locker provides a high-security enclosed lockable space for one bicycle
Access by key, code, swipe or electronic. High-security materials for weather and theft protection.
If double-tier lockers used: upper tier has a lift assist mechanism
Class B — secure communal area
Room or structure accessed by key, code, or swipe card
Entrance gates are self-closing and self-locking
Chain mesh fencing has NOT been used as enclosure material
Chain mesh is explicitly non-compliant for Class B facilities
Class C — open parking with user locking device
Compliant Bicycle Parking Devices (BPDs) specified — see Step 3
Verify all dimensions against the Bicycle Spacing Envelope in AS2890.3 (2015). All measurements are minimum clear dimensions.
Horizontal parking — bicycle spacing envelope
Horizontal envelope: 1800mm length x 500mm width x 1200mm height per space confirmed
Vertical parking — bicycle spacing envelope
Vertical parking depth: 1200mm from wall or mounting post confirmed
Width per space: 500mm confirmed with 300mm height offset between adjacent spaces, OR 700mm confirmed non-offset height
Lower bicycle rests no more than 50mm above surface level
If offset installation: upper bicycle rests at 350mm above surface level
20% horizontal rule — mandatory for all facilities
Minimum 20% of total spaces are horizontal, ground-level spaces
Required for non-standard bicycles and users unable to lift. Non-negotiable.
Access aisles — minimum clear widths
Horizontal parking aisle: 1500mm minimum
Vertical parking aisle: 1500mm minimum
Multi-tier parking aisle: 2000mm minimum
Bicycle locker aisle: 2000mm minimum
Aisle is obstacle-free (shared walkways or driveways are acceptable)
Envelope exceptions & reductions
Dynamic BPD: can reduce width to 400mm if adjacent spaces offset >=300mm height OR head-to-tail arrangement confirmed
If back-to-back staggered rows: 400mm overlap applied (combined depth 2000mm, not 2400mm)
Standards Australia does not certify BPD products. The specifier is responsible for assessing product compliance against each criterion below.
Core requirements — all BPDs
BPD allows user to lock at least one wheel AND the frame to the device with their own D-lock
BPD provides sufficient support to prevent a standard bicycle falling when properly secured
BPD materials resist cutting, bending, and breaking (high-security material)
All accessible fixings are tamper-resistant
BPD does NOT rely on built-in locking mechanisms as primary security (no integral chains or cables)
Static BPD — additional checks
Minimum 500mm width envelope maintained — no reduction permitted for static devices
Even with offset height capability, Static BPDs cannot use the 400mm reduced spacing
Dynamic BPD — additional checks
Moving the device creates a minimum 500mm envelope for locking and parking movements
If multi-tier: upper tier has a lift assist mechanism (e.g. gas strut)
If multi-tier lower tier is Static: 500mm minimum width applied to lower tier
