The right foundation for your cycle hub
A cycle hub foundation often carries several systems: the shelter frame, door thresholds, Sheffield stands or racks, access control and sometimes a green roof. The slab must match all of them.
Shelter anchorage
Frame feet stay the required distance from slab edges and use the approved embedment.
Explore the details →Security-rated stands
Cycle anchors need sufficient structural concrete, not only a thin surface topping.
Explore the details →Door and wheel access
Thresholds remain level and easy to roll across without creating ponding.
Explore the details →Coordinated equipment
Racks, lighting, access control and drainage are positioned before the final pour.

From first call to a finished foundation
Getting started is simple. We will guide you through the choices and explain any information needed before installation.
Talk through the options
We discuss the site and suitable foundations, identify any supplier information needed and provide a clear written quotation.
Install and hand over
Our team marks out and installs the agreed foundation, with the required checks before the next stage of your project.
Choose the foundation, not the complication
Foundation options for your cycle hub
These are the methods worth assessing for this application. The structure, support plan and actual ground determine the right choice—not a one-size-fits-all specification.
Concrete
Concrete foundation
A level reinforced or specified slab supports the shelter feet, doors and security anchors to their published installation details.
Worth considering for: Enclosed hubs, public bike stores and open commercial shelters

Installed ground screws
Ground screws and support frame
Ground screws may support a proprietary lightweight timber or steel bike store, while stand anchorage and floor surfacing are resolved separately.
Worth considering for: Selected private or relocatable shelters with an approved frame

Cycle Hub & Bike Store Foundations installation
Planned around its use
What matters for your cycle hub
We work from the shelter and rack drawings to install the structural base, fixings and agreed duct routes with practical drainage and accessible approaches.
Discuss your project with Craig →Shelter anchorage
Frame feet stay the required distance from slab edges and use the approved embedment.
Security-rated stands
Cycle anchors need sufficient structural concrete, not only a thin surface topping.
Door and wheel access
Thresholds remain level and easy to roll across without creating ponding.
Coordinated equipment
Racks, lighting, access control and drainage are positioned before the final pour.
When the design and ground are suitable
Why consider ground screws?
Year-round flexibility
A screw-only foundation avoids pouring and curing concrete, reducing one source of weather-related delays. Unsafe access, flooding, frozen or unsuitable ground can still mean postponing installation.
Less digging and mess
Localised supports can reduce excavation and spoil compared with extensive concrete foundations. Clearance, pre-drilling, service trenches and machinery access may still disturb the site.
A lower-impact approach
Using less concrete and moving less spoil can reduce material use and transport. Retaining vegetation may benefit habitats, but trees and wildlife still need protection. Steel manufacture and the full project design matter to any carbon comparison.
Before installation
Dimensions, approvals and responsibilities
Obtain the complete GA and installation guide, including rack positions. A shelter outline alone does not show the structural concrete needed for security anchors.
Public and workplace schemes should coordinate accessibility, lighting, drainage and planning with the wider landscape design.
JustBases quotes the agreed foundation and groundwork. Product installation, specialist connections, commissioning and third-party design remain outside our scope unless the written quotation expressly includes them.

Cycle Hub & Bike Store Foundations FAQs
