At Tandem Mobility, we understand the importance of security and convenience when it comes to bicycle storage. That's why we have developed an advanced independent locking system that ensures the safety of bicycles stored in our containers. Here are the key features of our locking system:
Technology
Our locking system utilizes state-of-the-art Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology. It consists of a BLE board connected to a battery and an electromechanical lock, providing robust security for the stored bicycles.
Operation
The system is seamlessly controlled via a smartphone, allowing users to lock and unlock the container door with ease. Through Bluetooth connectivity, the smartphone acts as the primary operator, triggering the lock wirelessly. Data transfer occurs via mobile data, ensuring reliable and secure communication between the smartphone and the locking system.
Battery Life
The locking system is powered by a rechargeable battery with an impressive lifespan of approximately 1.5 years, depending on usage and temperature conditions. To ensure uninterrupted functionality, the battery status is continuously monitored through our backend system. Our dedicated service team handles regular battery replacements, guaranteeing optimal performance of the locking system at all times.
Tandem Mobility ensures that each bike container meets high-quality standards and offers a durable, secure, and visually appealing storage solution for commuters. Our containers undergo rigorous construction and modification processes, including steel reinforcement, corrosion protection, and installation of sliding gate systems for ease of access.
At Tandem Mobility, we prioritize the robustness and reliability of our bicycle containers. Our steel construction and modification process adheres to stringent standards to guarantee the safety and longevity of the containers. Below are the specifications for the steel construction:
Reinforcement: Steel construction reinforcement is carried out according to static requirements to withstand various environmental conditions and usage demands.
Structural Interventions: Necessary structural interventions are undertaken to accommodate the longitudinal sliding door. This includes the implementation of all connections through screw connections and welding techniques.
Corrosion Protection: To ensure long-lasting durability, corrosion protection is applied by double recoating in corrosivity category C2 (medium) as per DIN EN ISO 12944-2 standards.
Original Container Modification: The original sea container doors are permanently closed to facilitate the installation of the sliding gate system.
Connection Points Installation: Connection points for on-site horizontal bicycle parkers are installed on two levels, with each level reinforced with steel construction for added strength.
Floor Opening: A floor opening of 300x300mm is incorporated to provide a transfer opening for power connection if required.
Gate System: The sliding gate system features two ceiling and floor C-rails for manual operation. Authorization for gate operation is granted through the Movatic App.
Material: The gate is constructed entirely of S235 steel and is QR-framed on all sides. It is welded and fully closed with filling Qg8-10 to ensure structural integrity and security.
Symmetrical Division: The vertical door division is symmetrical, with a 50/50 split for balanced operation and aesthetics.
Operating Handles: Each wing of the gate is equipped with one operating handle for user convenience.
Rail Stopper: Rail stoppers are included to indicate the "open" and "closed" positions of the gate, enhancing safety and usability.
Surface Coating: The gate surface is coated in RAL 7016 to provide a sleek and uniform appearance while offering protection against corrosion and wear.
Tandem Mobility provides integrated LED spotlights for containers, designed for easy wall mounting without the need for cables. The system is battery-powered, offering a flexible lighting solution with settings for 100% light, 50% light, or off. The batteries have a lifespan of approximately 400 days with 12 switching operations per day. The motion-activated lights, equipped with an infrared motion detector, ensure optimal illumination for both indoor and outdoor use.
Tandem Mobility provides extensive customization options for Container. The base offering includes the following options.
Color changes
logo integration.
For those requiring a more customized design, wooden panels and other materials can be used at an additional cost. An excellent alternative to traditional wood materials is HPL (High-Pressure Laminate) façade panels. HPL panels offer the aesthetic appeal of wood with greater durability and less maintenance. Available in various finishes, including realistic wood looks, HPL panels maintain their vibrant appearance without frequent upkeep and are resistant to fading, weathering, and wear.
Customization also includes a color palette for individual design, bicycle pictograms and graphics, instructions, and labeling with sliding door numbers. Renderings can be provided for visualization. These options ensure that the containers can meet aesthetic and functional requirements, particularly in areas near historic resources.
If opted for this offering, our solution will include
Color palette for individual color design
Bicycle pictograms and graphics
e.g. graphics for instructions
Labeling with sliding door numbers
A few other examples of our work include.
Tandem Mobility containers are designed to be placed on a level, stable surface without the need for anchoring. We assume that locations have paved or concrete foundations, assuming no additional work was needed.
installation is required inIf the installation is required on green areas, a strip foundation will be necessary. We recommend constructing a strip foundation measuring 2.50 m long, 0.80 m deep, and 0.50 m wide.
