Smoke Management

Charging lockers for e-bikes must follow smoke management guidelines to ensure safe use. According to VDMA regulations, charging lockers need a smoke exhaust system with an outlet leading outside the building.

Proper smoke management requires using the right materials and ensuring correct installation to safely direct smoke away.

If installing an outlet to the outside isn’t possible, lockers should include a smoke detector, which can connect to an alarm system, and a smoke eater (available locally). This alternative helps minimize the impact of any battery fire, limiting smoke damage, although it does not fully comply with VDMA standards.

Following these guidelines makes it easier for architects, project managers, general contractors, and city planning engineers to implement safe and compliant bike parking solutions.
