Frequently asked questions

Questions about fire-safe charging in bicycle retail

Below you'll find the most frequently asked questions from bicycle retailers about the safe storage and charging of e-bike batteries.

The LOXK1100 is a single-door cabinet with VDMA 24994 certification, intended for the simultaneous charging of multiple batteries on fireproof shelves. The cabinet features active ventilation, smoke and temperature detection, and an audiovisual alarm. The LOX12 is a locker cabinet with 12 separate compartments, each secured with an individual combination lock. This makes the LOX12 particularly suitable when customers deposit their own batteries for charging, while the LOXK1100 is more suitable for internal use or own stock.

The LOX12 is an indoor system and is not designed for outdoor installation. For outdoor use, LOXXER has the Outdoor Locker, a weather-resistant charging locker made of galvanized steel with UV-resistant powder coating, integrated rain roof, and rain-resistant ventilation openings. This is available in versions of 4 to 16 compartments and is delivered prepared for anchoring.

Technically, it is allowed, but it is strongly discouraged without the necessary precautions. Insurers are increasingly imposing requirements on how lithium-ion batteries are charged and stored in commercial spaces. A certified charging cabinet or locker is the most effective measure to maintain coverage and limit liability. Consult your insurer for the specific conditions of your policy.

For most bike retailers, the LOX12 is the most practical choice. This fireproof locker has 12 separate compartments, each with its own combination lock, allowing customers to safely leave their battery during maintenance or repair. For retailers who need fewer charging spots, the LOXK1100 (compact single-door cabinet, VDMA 24994 certified) is a good alternative. Planning to place it outside the store? Then the Outdoor Locker offers a weather-resistant solution.

Yes, it poses risks. Lithium-ion batteries can go into thermal runaway if defective or damaged, a chain reaction where the battery develops extreme heat and causes a fire. In a shop space with flammable materials and other batteries nearby, an incident can escalate quickly. A fire-resistant charging locker or cabinet limits the risk and prevents an incident from growing into a large fire.
