Duo’s streamlined shape and efficient use of materials results in a uniquely minimalistic style. The bike stand makes a perfect complement to modern architecture, and provides a practical design that urban cyclists can use and appreciate. As the name suggests, Duo provides space for two bicycles, each parked on either side.

If nothing is specified after the article number, Duo bollards are in only hot-dip galvanized steel.
S for hot-dip galvanized and powder coated in black RAL 9005.

C for any color of steel other than standard, at an additional cost.
M for installation in pre-cast foundations.
N for surface mount.
Nola uses high-quality steel with good strength in our products. Steel rusts if left untreated and must therefore be surface treated.
Hot-dip galvanizing provides very strong protection against corrosion. The steel is dipped into a bath of hot liquid zinc. The zinc attaches and creates a surface coating on the steel part, which is then taken out of the bath and drained of excess zinc.
Powder coating is a coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. Unlike conventional liquid paint, powder coating is usually applied electrostatically and then cured under heat or with ultraviolet light. The result is an even, hard-wearing coloured surface with the desired gloss level.
Posts for installation in pre-cast foundations.
Fully assembled
Products that are powder-coated can be touch-up painted with alkyd paint.
Hot-dip galvanized can be touch-up painted with so-called "cold galvanizing".
The product is available with a zinc-electroplated unpainted finish, or zinc-electroplated and powder-coated
Duo was designed by Jenny Osuldsen, an architect at Snøhetta. It complements modern architecture in a practical design that suits many urban bicycle schemes.

The MAX Laboratories are national facilities for scientific exploration and academic research. Norwegian architects Snøhetta were commissioned to landscape the surrounding terrain.
Jenny B. Osuldsen is partner in Snøhetta and Professor in Landscape Architecture. Educated as Landscape Architect in Norway (MLArch) and in the USA. Joined Snøhetta in 1995 and has had a central position developing the landscape architecture department. She has been deeply involved in many of Snøhetta designs, both in competitions and in a wide range of small and larger projects. She has lectured in several architectural symposia, sharing Snøhetta´s philosophy and design ideas. She is Professor in Landscape Architecture at the University of Life Science in Norway and Guest Professor at Ax:son-Johnson Institute of Sustainable Urban Design SUDes at the University of Lund, Sweden.
