This bike garage was commissioned by a client as an outdoor storage solution for 4 bikes and gear. All high-end hardware and finishing products ensure durability.
Solid, clear (straight-grain) fir was sourced from West Wind Hardwood in Sidney, BC - here on Vancouver Island. A family-run business for over 40 years, they support ecologically sound forestry practices and source recycled material.
