How to Store a Bicycle: 5 Fun Ways

All depends on the space you have available and where in your apartment there is a relatively free corner where you can place your two-wheeled friend. Such a corner can be found in the most unexpected places.

1. On the Balcony

A glazed balcony is the easiest option. The end of the balcony is ideal for storing a bicycle during winter. You only need to prepare the mounting hardware in advance and decorate the end with suitable material that won't be damaged when it comes into contact with the handlebars and pedals.

2. In the Hallway

A very small and cramped hallway is not suitable for this, but if there is enough space, you can even make the bicycle part of the decor: it will be both fun and practical.

3. In the Foyer

Suppose the bicycle is your pride, it was built specifically for you and represents a work of art that should not be hidden from strangers’ eyes. Don't hide it! On the contrary, place it in a niche with lighting. The niche can be part of a larger storage system.

4. In the Living Room

Why not? You just need to choose appropriate items for the bicycle. For example, decorate a wall with 'horns' made from a bicycle handlebar. Such a composition can become an ornament of a loft style.

5. In the Bedroom

In general, this can be any room with a free wall along which you can install a built-in cabinet with mounting hardware for storing the bicycle. The cabinet can be painted to match the wall color, and the look of the bedroom (or maybe a child's or guest room) won't suffer.
