Lowering bicycles, e-bikes or motorbikes into the ground - we have the right lifting column drives for this

With the Linak lifting columns, you can build an electrically retractable bicycle garage yourself and lower your bikes into the ground.

An average family of 4 people often has 4 bicycles, which are parked somewhere on the property or in the garage. 4 bikes is quite a lot. We know from our own experience that the bike you need is always right at the back. So you first clear or push the 3 other bikes to the side. If you're unlucky, dad's car is still in the garage, which in the worst-case scenario can get a scratch from the pedals or handlebars. Then we all know exactly who is going to freak out. That was exactly the intention behind writing this article and to point out to you that space is worth its weight in gold and that damage to your beloved vehicle can be avoided.

Retractable bicycle garage for e-bikes. The solution when space on the property is in short supply, or you simply want a cool solution to lower your bikes or e-bike into the ground in the garage.

With our lifting columns, for example, you can use a shaft to store bicycles and motorbikes on a lower level. This is the ideal solution for hiding the bicycle or motorbike out of sight. When you then need the bike or motorbike, you can lift it up at the touch of a button and take it out of the retractable motorbike garage. Operation is child's play via remote control or the home automation system.

Hide your bicycle or e-bike out of sight on the property and thus protect it from theft or access by thieves and riffraff.

Lower your cargo bike into the ground

With Linak's lifting columns, you can lower your cargo bike into the ground to protect it from thieves. The cargo bike is often a very large object. Because of their size, cargo bikes take up a lot of space on the property. An ideal solution is to sink the cargo bike into the ground on the property. The retractable cargo bike garage is the ideal and cool solution that also saves space on the property.

Build your own retractable motorbike garage. We have the right drives for it.

In addition to the drive solution for our previously described waste bin lift project, we also have drives and lifting columns that are strong enough to operate a retractable motorbike garage, for example. Depending on the combination, our lifting columns can lift loads of up to 500 - 800 kg and more. You simply build a shaft that you or the architect have planned in advance under the garage or in the driveway or somewhere suitable on the property. You know best where the ideal place is. You can build the shaft yourself using state-of-the-art technology and with a little manual skill. You can obtain the shaft stones from Hornbach or Bauhaus in the building materials department. You can also find instructions for civil engineering projects and shaft construction on YouTube. With the lifting columns from Linak, you can then raise or lower a bicycle platform to be built on site. (please use the pictures here in the blog as inspiration).

Hide your motorbike out of sight on the property and thus protect it from theft or access by thieves and riffraff.

Retractable cargo bike garage.

A cargo bike is really large in size and takes up a lot of space on the property. With our Linak lifting columns, you can install a self-built re tractable cargo bike garage on your property. Hide your cargo bike out of sight on the property and thus protect it from theft or access by thieves and riffraff.

Retractable garage for ride-on lawn mowers or robotic lawn mowers.

With a retractable robotic lawnmower garage, you can protect a robotic lawnmower from theft. If the robotic lawnmower or ride-on lawnmower is parked in the electrically height-adjustable robotic lawnmower garage, it is protected against theft or access by the self-locking Linak lifting columns. Using a control system, you can then set special intervals at which the robotic lawnmower is raised to lawn level to do its work. As you can see, there is a wide range of possible applications for Linak drives.

If you have any specific questions on this topic, we look forward to receiving your enquiry. We will be happy to advise you in detail about the use of Linak lifting columns in your project.
