1 bike
The balcony is a popular, but not the most convenient storage option of the bike, because you have to carry a means of movement with dirty tires across the apartment or spend time on their washing in the corridor.How to store
- An ideal solution would be to organize a convenient and safe place to store outside the apartment, for example, in the general storage room in the house (sometimes there are such in new buildings). In order for the bike to anyone, the special hooks for hanging can be built into the wall, the main one, away from the electrical tailor and the hatch of fire safety.
- If there is no such possibility, try to build these hooks in your hallway. If you remove the steering wheel, the bike will take quite a bit of place in this position and it will still be possible to place the hooks for clothing.
- Another suitable place is a long corridor between the rooms. Here the bike can be beat with wall decor, such as posters or bookshelves.
2 Automotive tires
If you do not have a garage, the most obvious place for storing tires is a balcony. This method has its own minuses: tires take too much space, unpleasantly smelling rubber. To put the balcony, think over another storage method.How to store
- In the rented cell in the warehouse. The main minus of such storage - for a place will have to pay. But you can be confident in the safety of tires and suitable storage conditions.
- In the pantry or large cabinet in the apartment. Not the easiest option, since the pantry or cabinet should be really voluminous. But if the place was still found, pack the wheels into a sealed package of dense PVC so that they do not pack the surrounding items and did not smell.
- In the country. Maybe if you do not have a cottage, you will be able to negotiate with the neighbors who have it, about the place for the place for the tire. Just make sure that the tires will be protected from dampness, mechanical damage and theft.
