Are you able to lock bikes to an external structure if they are inside? Could you use a bike lock to lock bikes to bolt in concrete?

There is an opening with a flap in the back wall of the YardStash III. If you mount the YSIII against a fence or wall, then you can put an eyebolt in the fence or wall at the level of that small flap and then lock the bike with a cable to that eyebolt. You also could cut a hole in the fabric floor of the YSIII to do something similar.

I don't think that would be possible without creating a hole in one or the walls.

I lock our bikes with a bike lock inside the yardstash. You could bolt it to concrete if you had too.

One screw but make sure you use a stud finder. The screw I used it's the type they use for concrete with a hex head. Two bikes? I doubt it. I have my kid's 16 inch bike and there is no room left for another bike like that or bigger.

Yes it can and that's what we did. I manage an apartment complex and we put concrete pads in and bolted the racks down for our residents. This is a good bike rack for the money and so far it's worked out well.

Yes it can be locked from the inside or outside. Thanks for choosing AMBOSALES

There are better and cheaper ways to store a bike by hanging it on a wall. I think you risk damaging the frame or finish repeatedly clamping the bike into this tool.

Yakima carries some brackets, locking and not locking designed specifically for bikes.I have carried a couple of bikes inside the basket, which works ok if you're carrying a bunch of other stuff.It's a good sturdy rack, was easy to mount and move from car to car.

There is a lock, but it is to lock the bike the tray. I suppose someone could still steal your bike if they removed the tray / bike combo from the crossbars, but it would be difficult. There is no lock that I saw that locks the tray to the cross bars.

I tried to see if we can, however i do not think it's possible. If securing is important for you, you want to buy it and take to local hardware shop to weld something to it or maybe the item listed below. http://www.amazon.com/Combination-Bike-Lock-Coated-Chain/dp/B009ZWBL5M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1377794084&sr=8-2&keywords=chain+with+number+lock Hope it helps.

Not really. I have a lock on the tow hitch receiver, but you would need a long cable lock for that. I cable the bikes together if I need to lock, but with a single bike wouldn't work. I only go to restaurants or short errands if I have bikes on the back. I would never leave them on overnight.

I use my "U" lock from my bicycle to lock it around that angled bar just behind the front wheel. I lock it up at places where I won't be very long like the store. Don't think I'd lock it someplace for longer if I couldn't keep a periodic eye on it.

There is no locking mechanism on the rack itself, but I just run a cable through all the bikes and through the loop on my trailer hitch. Keep in mind that if you lock/chain the bikes to the rack itself, you'd also want to make sure you have a locking trailer hitch/pin to prevent someone from simply pulling the pin and taking the entire rack with all your bikes attached to it (albeit, that would be heavy and awkward...but maybe I'm just a bit paranoid ;-) Great rack though. Good luck.

I haven't done this myself, but as long as you release the jack pressure onto the locks, you will be ok. It has served me well and has had a 1200 pound bike up for long periods of time, but not for months.

I purchased a lock for the hitch. You can lock the bike to the rack. I found the lick for the hitch on Amazon

The rack doesn't have a lock itself but you can easily run a cable across them. For the money this bike rack is awesome. We have used ours a few times and are getting ready for another trip with it.

Yes and no. You can if the bike is firmly secure and doesn't "pivot." But if the bike "pivots" or leans to the inside then the pedal will hit. All in all, I would answer that Yes you can pedal it fine. I will be honest. I bought this rack for general repairs and I absolutely love it. I would highly recommend it for general maintenance and cleaning. The only addition I made was buying the Park handlebar stabilizer. That comes in super handy to hold the handlebars in place.

It does not come with a bike lock but you can buy one as an add on. I already had a long cable lock and wrapped it around the post and and all bikes.

No I could not find a way to lock it. It is capable of being bolted into the ground. It is really just to keep the bike out of the weather and that's about it.
