BIKE SHED

ckeego · 2010-03-18 21:40:28

Evening all.. I am running fast out of space in the shed what with road bike, mountain bike, kids bikes, components etc. I saw somewhere a metal shed, about 5 ft tall that the roof lifts up and you can fit 3 or so bikes inside with some bits. Comes with a lock too. My question is where can you get these mini sheds; are…

My question is where can you get these mini sheds; are they available in Ireland and where?

Anyone have one and how do you rate it?

Many thanks.

I'd say get yourself a print copy of buyandsell, as there is always loads of companies in there selling steel prefab sheds. I know they are bigger than what you are looking for, but I'm sure a call to a few of these boyos will get you sorted.

No idea about how useful they would be, but I was looking at them for a while for somewhere to stick my bikes. Hope you find something!

I've have the same issue and I'm thinking about the tridoorbikestore. It looks very cool as well, but not sure if you can get it in B and Q on this side of the irish sea.

Edit: Just read a bad review on the other thread, so may give that a miss now.

Or something like this. Probably won't fit an adult bike but could take the kids' ones or all the components...

Was in same position as OP couldn't find a suitable store for bikes so used lateral thinking and bought a store similar to one in link (Focus DIY - under €100) and put all the other crap normally stored in the shed into that and left the shed with more room for bikes - problem solved.
