A permanent storage solution that turns the simple act of stepping outside into a moment of joy
From bikes to bins to planting, everything has its place: transforming front garden storage into a daily pleasure woven into the rhythm of your home.
When all you want is more storage
Your front garden has room, but what you need is a storage solution that keeps pace with your lifestyle.
A coherent, integrated design
Storage, planting, and paving working together as one scheme.
Room to grow
Generous storage that adapts as your family and collection expand.
Security you can trust
Peace of mind for every bike and belonging
Effortless Access
No more awkward lifts or tight corners; just smooth, everyday ease.
Understanding your needs
Every front garden and every family is different. That’s why we start by listening, so we can design a solution that truly fits your life.
- How many bikes do you need to store today? Are you expecting that number to grow in the future?
- Do you want to include bins, prams, or other items alongside your bikes?
- Of all the things a front garden store can offer: security, storage capacity, easy access, or aesthetics, which matters most to you?
- What’s your daily routine like (school runs, commuting, leisure) and how do you want storage to support that?
- Are you planning a wider renovation, with paving, planting, or a new wall, that should work seamlessly with storage?
- How important is planting to you? Is it something you’re passionate about and want to enjoy tending, or would you prefer a green feature that needs little or no maintenance?
Why a standard store will fall short
Most standard solutions solve the basics, but they come with compromises that quickly become frustrations.
- Lack of real security: weak locks and panels that can be forced with basic tools.
- Short lifespan: timber that warps, plastic that fades or cracks, and metal that dents.
- Poor fit: fixed sizes that waste space and don’t adapt to your family’s changing needs.
- Out of place design: sheds that look temporary and mismatched in a London front garden.
- No added value: rather than enhancing kerb appeal, they risk dragging it down.

Frequently Asked Questions about Front Garden Wall Replacements
Planning permission is usually required for all front garden storage, as such projects alter the street frontage of a home. Standalone storage, however, is often concealed behind tall planting at the street edge. This means many clients choose not to apply for permission, as the street elevation remains unchanged.
Of course, the decision is ultimately yours. You may choose not to apply and take the risk, or apply retrospectively if it ever becomes an issue. Our role is simply to give you clear, professional advice based on experience, and we do recommend applying from the outset.
If you would like to apply, we take care of the entire process for you. Our in-house architect manages everything, including drawings, applications, and council submissions, to ensure your project is approved, legal, and designed to make the very best use of your front garden space.
We are proud to have an exceptional success rate, with the vast majority of applications spread across London, including in conservation areas.
There is a planning fee for this service, which also reserves your manufacturing slot while approval is pending. That way, once permission is granted, we are ready to begin without unnecessary delay.
Your garden will not get bigger. Your bikes will not get smaller. If you are going to do it, it is worth doing it properly, and for the long term.
Brilliant timing, you’re in the perfect position to get it all working as one. More than half our projects are part of a wider garden renovation and they tend to be the most successful projects.
We’re used to working alongside garden designers, landscapers, and builders. We can coordinate with your team, share drawings and measurements, and make sure your bike store fits seamlessly into the overall plan.
Because our stores are often installed at the front of the property, we usually schedule installation at the end of your renovation works: to avoid any risk of damage while the rest of the project is still underway.
If you let us know when your garden works might finish, we’ll make sure your store is ready in time. We know renovations don’t always go exactly to plan, so we stay flexible and do everything we can to work around your schedule.
While we don’t take on full garden projects, we do take care of everything needed to install your bike store properly.
That includes:
- Foundation works and base preparation
- Removing bushes or small obstacles
- Taking down low walls or other structures if needed
We’ll make sure the space is fully prepared—so when we arrive to install your store, it’s ready to go.
If you’re planning a bigger garden or landscape project, we’re happy to work alongside your team to make sure it all ties together. And if you don’t have anyone lined up, we can recommend trusted garden designers and landscapers we’ve worked with before.
Just let us know what you have in mind: we’ll help you bring it all together.
Every Atlanticbike store comes with a robust steel frame and high-grade locking system as standard, giving you maximum protection for your bikes and belongings.
If you would like to go further, we can integrate a range of extras to suit your lifestyle:
- E-bike charging points: safe, weather-protected power inside the store.
- Internal lighting: motion-sensitive LEDs for visibility at night.
- Green roof irrigation: integrated systems to keep planting healthy with minimal effort.
- Shelves, hooks, and brackets: flexible storage to make the most of your space.
- Parcel lockers or additional compartments: tailored to your household’s everyday needs.
These features can be combined in a way that directly reflects your priorities, creating a front garden store that works perfectly for you.
Atlanticbike stores are crafted for longevity and ease and the occasional, thoughtful care ensures they stay as beautiful and functional as the day they were installed. Here’s what to expect:
Sedum Green Roofs
- In warm weather, a weekly water is ideal; increase to every 2–3 days during heatwaves, preferably in the evening. If the sedum turns red, don’t worry, it’s a natural response to heat, and it will green up again as temperatures drop.
- Light weeding in spring and autumn keeps plants healthy. Also, clear away fallen leaves and ensure drainage outlets remain unblocked.
- For a growth boost, a slow-release, low-nitrogen fertiliser in early spring helps, only once a year. Bare patches after storms? Easily replanted with sedum cuttings or trays.
Timber Cladding (Stained or Hardwood)
- Every six months: wipe down with a damp cloth and a mild outdoor timber cleaner, skip pressure washers or abrasive tools.
- Every 3–5 years: lightly sand any flaking areas and re-stain using a UV-protective outdoor wood stain, ideally the same one previously used. For richer warmth, a clear satin exterior wood oil can be added.
Powder-Coated Steel Frame
- Generally, a soft damp cloth or a gentle hose rinse will do.
- Every 2–3 years, you may choose to apply clear car wax for extra protection and added lustre.
- If small scratches appear, touch-up paint (RAL-matched) is available to restore the finish and protect against rust.
A brief seasonal check, ensuring clean gutters, intact surfaces, and a thriving planted roof is all it takes to preserve your beautiful investment.
Read the full maintenance guide so your store continues to protect your bikes and enhance your front garden for years to come.
It’s not something you lose sleep over, but let’s be honest: it’s always in the back of your mind.
Bike theft is personal. It’s frustrating. And when your bikes are stored in the front garden, it’s easy to feel exposed.
That’s exactly what the Atlanticbike Store is designed to prevent.
With thick steel walls, a heavy, plant-loaded green roof, a discreet Phantom lock system, and integrated ground anchors, it’s built to keep your bikes exactly where you left them: safe, secure, and ready for your next ride.
We don’t share the full security details publicly, for your protection, not theirs. It’s made for the front of your home, right where thieves expect an easy target. But once it’s locked, it stays locked, giving you the peace of mind you’ve been looking for.
Still wondering if it's right for you? We’re here to help.
Yes, when thoughtfully designed, a front garden store does much more than declutter. It becomes a smart investment that enhances equity, buyer appeal, and your property’s long-term desirability.
Here is how it makes a difference:
- Smarter storage, better space: A sleek, secure store clears clutter from interiors such as hallways or basements, increasing perceived living space and giving lenders and buyers a better appraisal outlook. 80% of buyers prioritise storage.
- Built to last, built to impress: Cheap alternatives deteriorate quickly and can hurt your home’s appeal. A robust, well-designed store, especially with a green roof, resists wear and keeps your garden looking cared-for and premium.
- Kerb appeal, front and centre: A maintained green roof is a subtle but powerful design feature. It softens your façade and signals quality and attention to detail, which are prized by both lenders and buyers.
- On-trend and future-proof: With increasing demand for secure bike storage and sustainable design, homes that already feature these elements tick more boxes for urban buyers and align with planning policies for greener, cyclist-focused spaces.
- Return on investment: When done right, a premium green-roof store has the potential to match or exceed its cost in added home value, while enhancing daily convenience and appeal.

Great question—and a very common one. Bikes come in all shapes and sizes: slim road bikes, bulky e-cargo bikes, tall saddles, wide handlebars… it’s normal to worry.
The short answer? Yes, your bikes will fit—because we make sure they do.
Before anything’s built, we do a site visit. We look at your actual bikes, take proper measurements, and talk through how you want to use the space. That means no guesswork—and no regrets.
Fitting is something people worry about before buying. Once it’s installed, it’s never mentioned again.
Most bike sheds are just that—sheds. Ours are something else entirely.
Every Atlanticbike store is:
- Built from steel and timber, not plastic or thin panels that warp or break.
- Engineered to last, with weatherproof materials and a structure designed to stand the test of time.
- Designed to fit your bikes and your space, not the other way around.
- Made by hand in the UK, by fabricators who care about every detail.
- Finished with a living green roof, adding life to your garden, not clutter.
But the real difference? We don’t just deliver a product—we deliver a fully managed service.
From planning permission to groundworks, manufacture, and installation, we handle everything. No flat packs. No third-party contractors. No guesswork.
And here’s something we hear time and time again from real estate agents: A store like ours doesn’t just solve bike storage—it raises the status of your property, making it stand out from others on your street. It appeals to buyers who value lifestyle, security, and long-term property value. That makes it more than just a practical upgrade—it’s an investment with a high return, reflected in your home’s value and appeal.
You’re investing in a permanent, secure, and beautifully built solution—something you’ll use and enjoy every day for years to come, not something you’ll want to replace in two.
Great to hear. You can get started today by sending us a few photos of your space and telling us what bikes you have.
From there, we’ll arrange a site visit: that’s where we check your bikes, take proper measurements, and talk you through design and planning options. You’ll receive a clear proposal, including the planning service if needed.
Once you’re happy, you secure your place in our manufacturing schedule by paying the planning fee. This means that while your application is being processed, your manufacturing slot is reserved and ready: so there are no extra delays once planning is approved.
