A garden shed is your best bet. If you’re planning to purchase one, this guide will come in handy. We’ve listed everything you need to know to make an informed decision on the perfect cheap bike shed for you.

Choosing the Ideal Cheap Bike Storage Shed for You

For many of us, learning to ride a bike was a part of growing up. But while bikes are often our pride and joy, they’re also an awkward object to store. If they’re not lent properly against a surface, they can easily be knocked over.

Owning a bike storage shed comes with a handful of great benefits. Not only will it ensure your little ones’ bikes don’t end up cluttering up space you need for something else, but it will also protect the bicycles against rust AND prevent them from being damaged or stolen.

If you’re fortunate enough to already be in possession of enough space to store your bike, go no further. But if you aren’t, plough on, and let us tell you about all the different choices you have. At Garden Buildings Direct, we stock a range of storage facilities that could all double up as a bike space.

Let’s begin with which material might be best for you.

Metal Bike Sheds

Store your bikes and accessories with ease with this excellent value apex version of the previous building! The Mini Keeper Overlap Apex shed is designed with a value overlap construction, offering ultimate weather protection to keep most of the rain out. 

It gives your bikes vital protection against the elements, preventing metal parts from rusting in the cold, damp weather.

Tongue and Groove Wooden Shed

Made from interlocking boards, tongue and groove panels provide great protection against the elements, with no gaps. Tongue and groove sheds are more weatherproof than overlap sheds, guaranteeing your shed’s contents remain dry, irrespective of the conditions. Here’s our pick of the bunch:

BillyOh Mini Master Tongue and Groove Pent Store Shed (Price: £304)

Whether you cycle to work or school, or need your bikes ASAP for a family day trip, our Mini Master T&G Pent bike store ensures your bikes are always ready to go! It provides quick and easy access, thanks to its extra-wide door opening. 

It’s a more premium choice than our overlap sheds because the doors and panels are made from 11mm tongue and groove cladding. The T&G uses interlocking boards that slot together to give the outbuilding a sturdier construction. 

Tongue and groove also provides much better weather protection and we think it looks better, keeping your bikes and other items out of the rain while looking stylish at the same time.

BillyOh Mini Master Tongue and Groove Apex Bike Store (Price: £294)

Keep your items safe and sound with the premium Apex version of the Mini Master. It’s an ideal bike storage solution! Available in 3×6, 4×6, 3×8, and 4×8 sizes, with the added bonus of additional height provided by the apex roof, our Mini Master T&G Apex bike store is compact, solidly constructed and weather-resistant.

Moreover, the T&G design gives your bikes and belongings extra protection from the harsh elements with its solid T&G construction, whilst providing a modern touch to your outdoor space.

Where Should I Install My Cheap Bike Storage Shed?

It’s important to position your outdoor building wisely in order to not risk inconveniencing yourself at a later date. When determining where to put your bike shed, make sure to take note of the following:

• Closeness to boundaries
• Exposure to the elements
• Proximity to the house
• Ground reliability
• The direction of the sun
• Accessibility

At Garden Buildings Direct, we offer purpose-built, cheap bike storage, designed to house mountain bikes, BMXs, tandems or whichever mode of transport you prefer, with consummate ease. Our bike storage units are designed to protect your bikes from the harsh weather conditions of the colder months.

Bonus: Not only will our sheds fit yours and your children’s bikes, but they’ll also double up as a workspace. This is great in the event that you need to change a tyre, tighten handlebars or perform any other kind of bike maintenance.
