The metal bicycle garage: Variobox bicycle from Käuferle
Käuferle - leading German manufacturer of garage doors, enclosures and windows
Value inside.
Käuferle is a family business from Aichach near Augsburg and has over 50 years of experience in the construction of garage doors, partition wall systems and enclosures, especially for bicycles. We stand for precisely crafted, holistically thought-out solutions whose design is always harmonised with the surrounding architecture. Our aim is to protect your assets.
Excellent variety with a system
Our Variobox is a smart, modular system solution for freestanding bike shelters and bikeports - charging stations and solar roofs can be realised as well as green roofs. Its timeless design and diverse material and design options (such as freely combinable cladding materials) were honoured with the German Design Award in 2021.
Individual, customised solutions
Each Variobox is individually adapted to the respective user requirements and locations. The wishes of our customers and the specific installation situations and dimensions always form the basis of our planning. In this way, our bicycle shelters and bikeports always fit perfectly into their surroundings - regardless of whether they are small residential complexes or large office complexes.


Proven and innovative
Metal panels for an elegant appearance
The clear appearance of the Variobox bicycle clad with metal façade panels harmonises particularly well with modern, contemporary surrounding architecture. Thanks to the wide range of design options offered by the metal panels, this bicycle garage makes a targeted statement as an enclosure - whether free-standing in a green space or as an extension to an existing building.
Unlimited creativity
The wide variety of metal grilles and panels, e.g. made of steel or aluminium, opens up countless possibilities when designing your bicycle garage. Metal sheets can be smooth, corrugated or folded. There are also a wide variety of surface treatments (such as galvanising, anodising or painting) and the option of using perforated sheets to create different degrees of transparency.
A robust and durable construction
The distance between the metal panels and the floor ensures good air circulation without compromising protection against driving rain. This results in a good indoor climate in which bicycles and e-bikes dry well even in rain and snow. Thanks to the surface treatments, the metal panels are just as corrosion-resistant as the hot-dip galvanised steel structure. This ensures a long service life for the bicycle garage.
Professional down to the last detail
Customised production and assembly by Käuferle
Käuferle stands for quality and service, which is why we offer comprehensive support in all planning phases, short delivery times thanks to a high degree of prefabrication and the assembly and installation of all components by Käuferle. A wide range of colour, surface and material variants enable an appearance that is perfectly matched to the architecture of your building. Thanks to the flexible modular design, the Variobox from Käuferle can be easily adapted to a wide variety of locations and functional requirements.
Maximum security with metal bike boxes
Metal bicycle boxes allow theft-proof, weather-protected storage of bicycles. The Variobox bicycle from Käuferle also offers the security of a durable solution. This is because all metal components of our bicycle boxes have the best possible corrosion protection - the galvanised steel structure as well as the side walls made of sheet steel or aluminium.
Bicycle garages with combined aluminium and wooden side walls
Regardless of whether you want to store 2, 4 or more bikes: Metal bicycle garages always cut a fine figure. This is especially true when aluminium sheets are used for the side walls, which are available in many different surface qualities and colours. The combination of wood and metal components also makes for particularly elegant bicycle garages.

Frequently asked questions about metal bicycle garages
Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about metal bicycle garages:
-
The biggest advantage of a metal bicycle garage over plastic or wood is the nature of the material. Metal is rainproof and weatherproof. Hot-dip galvanised, polyamide stove-enamelled metal (sheet steel) offers optimum corrosion protection (protection against rust). Metal cannot be cut through quickly, which leads to increased protection against theft. Metal bicycle garages are available in various sizes and colours.
-
This depends on the size and location of the bicycle garage. As a rule, however, you do not need planning permission for a metal bicycle garage if it is smaller than 75 square metres and is not used as living space. However, if you live in an area with special building regulations or listed building regulations, you should contact the relevant authority to ensure that you have all the necessary permits.
-
A metal bicycle garage is very easy to clean. You only need to wipe it occasionally with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. If you wish, you can also use a mild detergent. However, avoid aggressive cleaning agents or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the surface.
-
The size of a bicycle garage depends on various factors, such as the number of bicycles you want to store in it, the size of the bicycles and the space available on your property. The standard size of a bicycle garage is 7.5 square metres. This size comfortably accommodates four to eight cyclists.
