Cycle racks and shelters
Installing cycle parking areas:
Smoking shelters
This kind of furniture benefits smokers and non-smokers alike. By encouraging smokers to use one, dedicated area you can prevent people congregating by your entrances and exits, which can deter non-smokers from using your business. Additionally, smokers can have a shelter from the wind and the rain, improving their smoke-break experience. Finally, using a shelter in conjunction with an ashtray/cigarette bin can be key to keeping your floors free from unsightly ash and cigarette ends.
Metal bollards
These strong and sturdy posts are a great way of protecting buildings and personnel from the dangers of reckless drivers. Using bollards along the side of a footpath or pedestrian zone will minimise the risk of cars hitting staff or customers. Similarly, they can be used to great effect to prevent accidental (or deliberate) damage to property. They are also an excellent way of controlling parking areas or even restricting vehicle access.
First Mats street furniture is available in different styles and colours to ensure the right aesthetic finish for your environment.
