About Us
Cora Bike Rack is a family owned business that has been devoted to improving Australia’s cycling infrastructure since 1997. We are also cycling enthusiasts and believe that by designing better bicycle parking products, people will want to ride their bikes to more places, more often – and that’s a good thing for everyone!
We design all of our bicycle racks and lockers to be easy to use, easy to install and nice to look at. We proudly manufacture our entire commercial bike racks right here in Australia. If you are an Architect or Builder, we understand new DA conditions and Green Star requirements that now require AS2890.3 and Green Star compliant bicycle parking facilities.
Cora Bike Rack provides professional advice to guide you through the standards, select the best products, create the most space efficient layout and ensure your project is a success.
If you are a local council, transport authority, building manager, owners corporation, university or school, we can provide a flexible, well-planned bike parking facility for your commuters, customers, employees, residents, and students.
If you are a home owner and need a simple solution to keep your bikes organised, we have a number of smart products that will unclutter your space in a snap.

Bicycle Parking Standards
When selecting bicycle parking products, it is important to understand the features required for commercial applications. While home use products are a great way to store family bikes in a secure area, commercial grade products must be vandal resistant, weather resistant and extremely durable. Cora Bike Rack products have been verified by EcoSpecifier to comply with Green Star and AS2890.3 guidelines which provides 3 Classes of acceptable bicycle parking facilities:
Class 3 bicycle racks and rails are designed to:
• minimise damage to a bike by supporting the bike frame (not wheel) and;
• maximise security of a bike by allowing the wheels and frame to be locked to the parking device using the cyclist’s own lock.
Class 2 bicycle rooms and compounds are protected from the weather and accessed via an attendant or key system. Class 3 bike racks and rails are provided within the compound to allow secure locking of bikes.
Class 1 bicycle lockers are fully enclosed, weather protected individual lockers with unique key or electronic access.
Bicycle Parking Provision
In determining the appropriate Class and quantity of bike parking facilities, consideration must be given to the specific application, location and space available.
For new building developments, it is critical to consult local and state government requirements. In addition, Green Star and AS2890.3 list compliance guidelines for bicycle parking provision.
