City of Edinburgh Council commissioned Lockit-safe to deliver secure cycle storage and related infrastructure works across 12 schools, helping to support active travel and improve access to safe, practical bike parking for pupils and staff. The project included a range of cycle storage solutions tailored to each site, from cycle compounds and bike shelters to scooter racks and toast racks, alongside upgrades to existing facilities.
OVERCOMING CHALLENGES
Delivering works across 12 live school environments required careful coordination and a strong focus on safety. As installations were carried out during school hours, Lockit-safe planned each phase to minimise disruption to pupils, staff, and day-to-day school operations. Most sites also required groundwork before installation, adding another layer of complexity to the programme. By combining practical site management with flexible delivery, Lockit-safe was able to complete the works efficiently across multiple locations.
