There’s a fast way for housebuilders to gain extra Code for Sustainable Homes points. Cycle storage earns up to two credits, and Protect a Cycle™ from leading manufacturer Trimetals provides a simple and easy-to-specify solution.

Although it’s not a mandatory requirement, Section Ene 8 of the Code aims to ‘encourage the wider use of bicycles as transport by providing adequate and secure cycle storage facilities, thus reducing the need for short car journeys’, and Protect a Cycle ticks all the boxes for homes with up to three bedrooms.
