High-Security Bike Racks
High security bike racks are available at at seven stations: 16th Street Mission, 24th Street Mission, Concord, Pleasant Hill, Union City, 12th Street/Oakland, and MacArthur. The integrated electronic locking swingarms and other security features of these smart racks provide significantly greater theft protection than traditional U locks alone.
- Usage is free
- Racks are available on a first-come basis.
- Continuous parking is limited to 24 hours
- This is a smart rack system and will require a quick online registration (30 seconds).
- Racks are activated (i.e. locked and unlocked) by tapping your registered Clipper card. (Clipper for mobile is not compatible - you will need a physical Clipper card)

BART's BikeLink electronic bicycle lockers provide customers with highly secure, on-demand bike parking. On December 7th 2022, BART will roll out mobile app access systemwide for all BikeLink lockers. This means that BART customers will no longer need to purchase a pre-paid BikeLink card to use an eLocker. With the app, you can now set up an online account, load value with your credit card, and open the lockers with your smartphone within minutes. The new Bikelink app feature will also be available at BART's six self-park bike stations after the next BikeLink app release in the spring of 2023. BikeLink cards will continue to function at BART's lockers and bike stations.
To get started with the eLockers, purchase a BikeLink smart card online or at a convenient vendor location, or download the BikeLink app on iOS or Android. Once you have a card or online account, simply ride up to an available locker and either insert your BikeLink smart card into the card slot or launch the BikeLink app. Follow on-screen directions to put time on the meter and open the door. The cost, 5 cents an hour, is automatically deducted from your smart card or online account. Park your bike inside, close the door, and your bike remains secure. When you return to retrieve your bike, open the door by re-inserting your smart card into the slot or launching the app again. Unused time and value are automatically refunded back to your card or account.

Single user keyed lockers are for individual use and require a rental agreement. Note that some stations have wait lists. Download the application/rental agreement (.pdf). Keyed lockers are located at the following stations:
