This way, your bike rack is always ready for use, whether for everyday life or long journeys.

The range includes the following categories:

  • Theft protection
  • Handling
  • Road safety
  • Luggage transport

Theft Protection

If you can't always keep an eye on your bike rack, we recommend our theft protection accessory for rear-mounted carriers. Simply order it together with your selected bike rack model.

Handling

For easier handling and storage of Paulchen bike racks, we have developed special accessories.

These include:

  • Tailgate stands
  • Wall mounts

Tailgate Stand

The tailgate stand is used when your car's tailgate cannot support the additional weight of the Paulchen bike rack. It is inserted into the gas strut of the tailgate to provide support.

Wall Mount

The wall mount is the ideal solution for storing your Paulchen bike rack safely and in a space-saving way, whether it's a rear-mounted or towbar-mounted rack. When not in use, the rack can be neatly and compactly stored on the wall using the appropriate wall mount.

Whether in the basement, garage or storage room, our wall mount keeps your bike rack protected, easily accessible and space-efficient. Discover the right wall mount for your carrier system in our shop.


Road Safety

Safety is our top priority, especially when it comes to making your Paulchen visible in road traffic.

That's why we offer the following bike rack accessories to ensure optimal road safety:

  • Light bars
  • Licence plate holders & additional licence plates
  • Warning signs

Light Bars

If the bike rack blocks your car's rear lights, zusätzliche Beleuchtung for the rear carrier is required by road traffic regulations. Our light bars are mounted on either the load frame or the base carrier, depending on the model. For light bars with conventional bulbs, a controller is also required.

Paulchen lighting is available in two variants:

  • LED lights for parallel connection using splice connectors
  • Direct connection with a 13-pin plug for the towbar

If a bulb in your light bar breaks, you'll find replacement lights in our online shop.

Licence Plate Holders & Licence Plates

If the licence plate is obscured by the load on your bike rack, a third licence plate must be installed. We offer dedicated licence plate holders for this purpose, and you can also request an additional licence plate from us.

Warning Signs

In some European countries, such as Italy, Spain, and Portugal, it is mandatory by law to mark protruding loads on the bike rack with a special warning sign. Our aluminium warning signs for rear-mounted and towbar-mounted racks are double-sided: One side has five red and white reflective stripes for Italy, the other three stripes, in line with the regulations in Spain and Portugal.
