Metal pre-fab sheds

Posted by Glen Stillman on March 18, 2019 at 8:42pm in Info

Evening all. I'm in the process of moving house and the new house does not currently have a very secure garage / shed / workshop.

I'm looking for something to throw up quickly. Maybe to keep long term, but will probably need to be moved. 

I've had a quick look at these pre-fab wood effect metal sheds.

Has anyone got one. Are they very secure.

Thanks for your thoughts

    I've not dealt with one personally but I hear they can be a bit of a nightmare to assemble.

    A friend of mine bought one from Homebase and wanted me to put it up................... absolutely 100's of tiny bits and pieces, nuts, bolts, screws all different shapes and sizes............ would have been a nightmare to assemble so sent it back. Apparently they'd had quite a lot of returns.

    Our neightbour also had a large one and it was a very flimsy thing.

    Rapidly going off this idea. ..............

    They are not good for keeping things dry as they get a lot of condensation on the roof and sides.

    My parents had one when I was a kid as above hundreds of nuts bolts etc and you could have still ripped the door open with your hands. It eventually blow a couple of hundred metres down the street in a storm

    Have a look on asgardsss.co.uk

    we put one up for a customer last week. Absolutely fabulous quality product!

    full metal casing, nothing flimsy AT ALL!

    the doors would suit a safe!

    really easy to put up too. And would be pretty easy to take apart and move too

    Thanks for the comments all, I think it's a classic case of you get what you pay for!
