Ease of Specification. A proven, robust modular system, metroSTOR® is highly configurable for capacity, layout, access, security and finishes.
Reduced Risks. Fire prevention is integral to metroSTOR® design. Our units cut the number of potential ignition sources, reduce fire load and help to maintain clear escape routes.
Lower Operating Costs. Facilities management duties are simplified with waste stream enclosures that discourage fly-tipping, eliminate reject bin collections and avoid rubbish chute blockages.
Future-Proof Storage. Able to be extended or relocated as site requirements evolve, metroSTOR® provides added cost certainty over the long term.
Sense of Place. Where new facilities engender user respect it is possible to deliver attractive and secure neighbourhood environments that residents can be justifiably proud of.
Enriched Lives. metroSTOR®units contribute to scheme design that meets the need of residents. Storage units make for tidy, safe communal areas and Charging Stations help users to maintain their independence.
Greener Results. Achieved at local community level, metroSTOR® makes household recycling easier and greenroof storage unit options bring biodiversity into the smallest of spaces.
WhymetroSTOR®?
Our modular product systems help your organisation resolve the challenges of outdoor storage. From waste and recycling containers, mobility scooter charging units to cycle parking.
Type-specific module sizes, configurable cladding and access control options make for easy-to-specify solutions that suit the most diverse and demanding ofsituations.
Fire risk is reduced by providing a safe, secure means of storage outside the dwelling, lowering fire load by removing sources of ignition and obstructions to escape routes.
Less fly-tipping and bulky waste, fewer contaminated bins and chute blockages for a significant reduction in operating costs.
Instead of hidden areas that encourage anti-social behaviour, you can now create structures that are attractive and welcoming. They invite use. Locating them where people walk will make users feel safe, residents will have homes and neighbourhoods that they can be proud of.
metroSTOR®. Tough. Configurable. Neat.

Greenroof Storage
metroSTOR® is the UK’s leading outdoor storage system for the built environment. It is easy to specify, with products designed to help revitalise the fabric of our urban areas delivering social, economic and enviromental value.
Cycle ParkingUnits
cycleSTOR™ is a flexible, modular storage system designed to address the lack of secure cycle parking at home, at work and on the move. Whether individual lockers, secure compact stores or cycle hubs, the stylish and durable cycleSTOR™ units can be configured to maximise security and accessibility optimising available space.
PCL cycleSTOR™Cycle Locker
PCM cycleSTOR™Compact Cycle Store
PCL is an individual locker providing cyclists with high levels of security in an attractive and cost-efficient design. Compact dimensions, ease of use with integral wheel channel ensuring cycle can be stored away quickly and in an upright position, together with choice of finish options make PCL an obvious choice.
Where available width is the limiting factor for your cycle storage, PCM units with their semi-vertical cycle racks provide outstanding space efficiency in a compact footprint. Modular design lets you choose panel design, access systems and even greenroof options.
PCH cycleSTOR™Cycle Storage Hub
Providing cycle parking facilities within a centrally located hub building, PCH uses the metroSTOR® modular design with a wide choice of cladding or glazing panels. The ‘S’ Series PCH is configured with access to single row of cycle stands from a side aisle door position while the ‘C’ Series PCH has double rows of racks accessed from the central aisle for greater capacity.
Waste Stream Enclosures
Designed specifically for challenging urban environments, robust construction and component longevity are metroSTOR® product fundamentals. Galvanised steelframe with highly durable coatings, heavy duty components and low-maintenance cladding materials are proven to ensure many years of trouble-free service. Their smart appearance and unobtrusive physical profile enable wasteSTOR™ recycling centres to be located in spaces that may not have previously been considered.
PBL wasteSTOR™ 140L-360L Wheeled Bins
PBM wasteSTOR™660L -1280L Wheeled Bins
PBH wasteSTOR™Walk-in Bin Rooms
Their compact and unobtrusive form enables PBL units to be conveniently located close to entrances or in communal gardens, making them easily accessible to users. Designed to fit closely around standard two-wheeled bins, material can be loaded without opening the door, keeping the waste stream unit secure.
PBM units enclose your four wheeled waste and recycling bins leaving no space for refuse to be deposited outside of the receptacle provided. Warden or specific resident controlled door systems keep the bin secure while the door aperture and locking options prevent unauthorised usage or contamination of recyclables containers.
For communities with restricted access to bin areas, PBH bin rooms can be configured for your combination of wheeled and stacking bin types within a single secure enclosure. F Series PBH is designed for front loading of bins by residents, and the E series units for end loading where waste streams are warden controlled.
PBE wasteSTOR™Bin Storage Visual Screen
Where the primary function of a bin enclosure is visual screening, PBE is the most efficient, tough and stylish solution. The bolt-down modular system compares favourably in price with fencing systems commonly used for this purpose, whilst being much more resistant to damage and also re-configurable as requirements change.
Scooter Charging Stations
scooterSTOR™ charging stations are a modular product system designed to provide compliant, secure storage and charging for any number of mobility scooters. Their attractive appearance makes them suitable for locations close to building entrances enabling easy access by users with limited mobility. From single locker type to communal unit for multiple users, scooterSTOR™ have the same robust, easy to use functionality.
PSL scooterSTOR™ Locker Type Charging Station
PSM scooterSTOR™Drive-In Charging Station
PSH scooterSTOR™Communal Charging Hub
An individual charging station for class 1, class 2 mobility scooter or electric wheelchairs, the PSL has a low overall height and choice of finishes to suit locations in front of domestic properties including under windows. PSL units are supplied pre-wired with a charging point, interior lighting and a powered lift for the rear hinged roof section.
PSM is the ‘drive-in’ unit designed to provide users with secure, easy to use storage and charging of their class 2 or class 3 mobility scooters, protected at all times from the elements yet within a compact footprint. The low-profile design means that PSM can still be located close to buildings without undue visual impact.
Designed as a Communal Hub, PSH is specified where there is a requirement for a number of class 2 and 3 scooters to be stored and charged with sufficient space available in a single accessible location. PSH units are highly configurable for layout, charging points, access control options and also roof and cladding types.
External LockerUnits
Specified by facilities departments and the social housing sector, lockerSTOR™ is a flexible, tough storage unit system for equipment and belongings. Neatly styled with custom wall panel and roof specification options, lockerSTOR™ can always be configured to complement the surrounding architectural fabric.
PTL lockerSTOR™Storage Locker
PTM lockerSTOR™Compartment Storage
PTH lockerSTOR™Storage Building
PTL is a compact, secure locker designed primarily for the residential sector where there is a requirement for the economical storage of buggies, prams and children’s toy in confined spaces below window height to avoid blocking out natural light.
PTM offers secure and easily accessible storage space as individual compartments with a full height access door. The flexibility central to this design means that you can specify locker units to suit site requirements exactly with 2 unit widths, 2 unit depths and any number of modules from a single unit upwards.
PTH is designed to offer a robust and aesthetically pleasing alternative to standard prefabricated buildings and steel containers. Providing secure equipment or materials storage with a modular design flexibility to configure bespoke requirements, and even extend or relocate as site needs evolve.
Greenroof Structures
Wild® Greenroof Systems can be specified on most types of metroSTOR® product. They provide a great opportunity to create pockets of biodiversity, bringing the enriching and enlightening natural world closer to our everyday lives within the same footprint as your storage unit.
The compact and unobtrusive design of our L and M Series units allow these to be conveniently located close to entrances or in communal gardens, greatly improving the visual appearance of the area without compromising accessibility for site users.
The Wild® sedum greenroof used on L and M Series units is an extensive system, meaning that it has a shallow substrate which is relatively lightweight and capable of supporting drought-tolerant species such as low-growing mosses and sedums. Installed as a pre-established turf, there are minimal establishment issues and on-going maintenance requirements are limited to annual weed removal.
H Series storage buildings with the WILD® greenroof system enable you to make a definitive visible statement on the commitment of your organisation to safeguarding our environment and its fragile ecosystems. The Wild® biodiverse greenroof used on the H Series storage buildings is an intensive system boasting wildflowers, particularly those native to calcareous grassland, along with sedums, giving a more diverse sward and greatly extended flowering season. The spectacular flower display is very attractive to bees and butterflies, and leaving the vegetation uncut during the winter provides a food source for seed- eating birds and shelter for a wide range of invertebrates.
Custom PanelConfigurator
The panel cladding system that makes possible effective, design-led outdoor storage solutions; FirenzePanel™ adds a unique, vibrant style to the durability and configurable benefits of metroSTOR® storage units.
At metroSTOR®, we do not believe there is any justification for outdoor storage areas that are so visually unattractive that they need to be hidden from view as this often attracts anti-social behaviour instead of the area being used for the purposes intended. In even the most deprived neighbourhoods, making such structures attractive and welcoming and locating them where people walk will invite use because this is somewhere people feel safe.
Traditionally, those inspiringly designed amenities have had to be bespoke, leading to such options being frequently avoided on the grounds of higher design and construction costs. FirenzePanel™ offers you a choice of stunning designs in laser-cut steel that can be powder coated in a range of finishes and even complemented with hardwood slats.
Taking FirenzePanel™ a step further; our innovative use of the laser-cutting process, CAD design talent and panel manufacturing knowledge can provide you with the freedom to recreate your own amazing design, safe in the knowledge that our team will advise and refine your panels for an on-time and within budget delivery.
"The units are cleverly designed and have enhanced
our external spaces. This enabled us to locate the
recycling bins at points where residents regularly pass,
encouraging correct usage."
Poole Housing Partnership Sterte Court, Poole
Poole Housing Partnership is an ALMO that was set up in 2004 to bring investment for improvements to over 5,200 homes across the Borough of Poole in Dorset. Having become one of the best performing housing organisations in the country, PHP now have the responsibility to help drive the development of new affordable homes, as well as the regeneration and improvement of estates in the town for the next 30 years.
PHP recently carried out a £7.5m refurbishment of two 10-storey 60 year old tower blocks in Poole. The award-winning project at Sterte Court included innovative fully enclosed balconies, self-cleaning windows, upgraded insulation, modern heating systems and roof-top solar panels to the tower blocks, has now been further enhanced with the addition of metroSTOR bin enclosures.
The refurbishment had been carried out to a very high standard and PHP recognised that there was a need to bring the provision for storage of waste and recycling bins up to the same level in order to eliminate issues that had previously caused harm to the amenities of local residents and generated unacceptably high levels of customer complaints.
Jon-Paul Elwart. PHP Building Surveyor, commented: “The units are cleverly designed and have enhanced our external spaces. This enabled us to locate the recycling bins at points where residents regularly pass, encouraging correct usage. There was a quick and painless installation, and our estates staff have only had to spend a very minimal amount of their time dealing with litter, bulky waste and fly-tipping – they really do work.”
Stonewater Plc Various locations throughout the UK
Stonewater came into being through the merge of Jephson and Raglan Housing Associations, making it one of the UK’s most significant social housing providers. With over 30,000 homes under management, Stonewater offer good quality, affordable housing to people whose needs are not met on the open market with a vision for everyone to have the opportunity to have a place they call home.
metroSTOR® were asked in 2013 to assist Raglan with the Rebranding Programme for their Retirement Living schemes and this has continued throughout the merge. To date our products have been a part of the provision of mobility scooter charging stations on over ten different schemes across the UK.
The project scope has now increased to cover everything from the preparation and submission of planning applications through to a snag-free project hand-over, including all DDA access works and electrical connections.
Glenn Loftus, Stock Improvement Project Manager at Stonewater, commented: “We have been using metroSTOR® charging stations on our sheltered schemes at Stonewater for two years now; we chose the units originally because the scalable concept allowed us to reduce costs by simply dropping in the required number of attractively-styled, robust modules to each scheme rather than designing a bespoke solution time after time. I am pleased to report that the units are performing very well and we have been particularly impressed with the high level of service given by metroSTOR® with their comprehensive installation package.”
"The scalable concept allowed us to reduce costs by
simply dropping in the required number of attractively-
styled, robust modules to each scheme rather than
designing a bespoke solution time after time."
The unscheduled removal of bulky waste is one of the
key costs London & Quadrant needed to get under
control; they reckoned that substantial savings could
be achieved if they could schedule a fixed-cost monthly
collection rather than having numerous unscheduled
weekly collections.
London & Quadrant Canterbury Grove, Lewisham
London & Quadrant is one of the UK's leading housing associations and one of London's largest residential developers, owning or managing over 70,000 homes in London and the South East. Its mantra is `creating places where people want to live’ and its success comes from a determination to maximise resident satisfaction, while at the same time growing its business responsibly.
Like all responsible social housing providers, every penny is invested back into providing more and better homes and services to residents. L&Q recently identified the unscheduled removal of bulky waste as being one of the key costs that they needed to get under control; they reckoned that substantial savings could be achieved if they could schedule a fixed-cost monthly collection rather than having numerous unscheduled weekly collections.
This, of course, would necessitate the provision of secure storage facilities at each scheme for bulky items, but the challenge was to restrict the use of these to L&Q tenants only, as there was evidence to suggest that in some cases they were unwittingly providing a free service to the whole street – a growing problem as more local councils introduce charges for the collection of bulky items.
Three blocks of flats in Streatham were generating a particularly high level of complaints and pressure from local Councillors to provide a solution lead to the selection of these as a pilot scheme. Despite being a relatively new development, the timber bin stores were insecure and in poor condition so those on the first block were replaced with secure PBM wasteSTOR enclosures for 2no 1100L general waste containers, 1no 1100L recyclables container along with a locker for bulky items. The initial trial proved to be very successful with a dramatic reduction in bulky waste so the enclosures have now been replaced on the two remaining blocks as well, with L&Q looking to introduce PBM wasteSTOR on a number of other schemes.
Oval Quarter, an award winning development of nearly 1000 new and refurbished homes in Lambeth, has seen 20no. cycleSTOR™ green roof cycle stores installed over the last three years to twenty, providing a total of 354 cycle spaces and 278m2 of green roof.
PRP Architects’ masterplan has created a dynamic and desirable new urban village with community facilities including new function hall, café and crèche, and has fulfilled its aims to substantially enhance the ecology of the area with a new central park as part of the exciting new public realm. metroSTOR® is proud to have made a significant innovative contribution to the biodiversity aims of the project, with PRP Architects having this to say:
“With biodiversity being high on the agenda of the Myatt’s Field North project as well as being integral to the Code for Sustainable Homes requirements, we required innovative ways of introducing biodiversity into the residential areas. It was then that the metroSTOR® cycle units with the greenroof option was chosen to not only provide green roofs to the cycle stores, but to ensure they integrated attractively into the environmental fabric of the area.”
The ability to specify a green roof product from a proven modular system reduces design time for architects and is more cost effective for clients. And if this isn’t enough of an advantage, the units are configurable to fit limited space on site or accommodate specific capacity requirements, and can be specified in a range of cladding and finish options to complement almost any architectural theme.
