Architect-Designed

The renowned Nordic architectural firm Soini & Horto (now ARCO) collaborated with us to create a new generation of outdoor storage. Traditionally, outdoor storage has been a simple, lightweight waste shelter with no additional practical uses. It often did not match the surrounding architecture, disrupting the overall look. Our outdoor storage changes this by being both practical and stylish, serving as an outdoor storage unit, waste shelter, and bicycle shelter in one.

Structure

  • Materials: Aluminum and steel frame structure.
  • Cladding: Choose tempered glass, wood, steel, or a combination.
  • Modular and customizable: The outdoor storage unit is designed to be modular, so it can be scaled to the desired size as needed. For example, if there are many bicycles, the storage space for them can be easily expanded. Likewise, if more space is needed for waste bins, it can also be arranged. We will gladly work with you to design a suitable outdoor storage unit.

Safe

  • Lockable doors.
    • Doors can be electronically locked. Sliding doors are also available.
  • LED lighting.
    • Lighting ensures good visibility inside, making it safe to use year-round.
  • Heated walkways.
    • Heated walkways keep the floors (outdoor storage, waste shelter, equipment storage) ice-free.
  • Bicycle racks.
    • Choose from our range of safe bicycle racks. The industry standard is now frame-lockable bicycle racks like the BAR or BRANCH models. If there are many bicycles, it may be more space- and cost-efficient to choose our double-tier bicycle racks. The storage space can neatly organize yard tools, wheelbarrows, and lawnmowers. If all you need is safe bicycle storage, you can also order a dedicated bike storage unit.

Summary

A safe and practical outdoor storage unit is an essential investment because:

  • Residential construction is expensive
    • A high-quality outdoor storage unit frees up valuable indoor space for residential use in apartment buildings
  • Legislation requires more eco-friendly solutions
    • By increasing resident capacity, the carbon footprint per square meter of living space is reduced
  • More apartments can be built
    • Converting storage spaces to residential use allows for better margins and helps address the housing shortage
  • Bicycle parking needs to be safer
    • Many people store their bicycles, including electric bikes, in their homes, which can pose a fire hazard
  • Maintaining old outdoor storage units is expensive
    • Typical outdoor storage units are made from low-quality materials that require more maintenance and repairs than those made from high-quality materials

The bicycle storage section of the outdoor storage can also be equipped with a bicycle repair station. The repair station includes a pump with a multi-valve nozzle and the most common tools, allowing cyclists to fix their bikes before heading out.
