Shed / Garage

[wonderpupp]

Does anyone know a really good freestanding shed or shelter for bikes to sit in, just to get them out of the elements?

I've seen these metal ones - I don't mind putting it together.

A GSXR in blue/white?

no one of them arrows cut out in my lawn.

I wouldnt go for a metal shed, they get damp as anything and fill right up with moisture. Id go for a wooden shed myself.

Or buy some bricks and build one.

My problem with that bike cover thingy is that it just advertises the fact you have a bike................... a plain wooden shed doesn't

Better still a proper built workshop/garage is best......................I know two good builders thats how I did mine

[masterofinsanity]

i'm toying with the idea of building my own at the mo, we have a shed 10ft x 14ft at the mo and i extended it last year with another 8ft but not sure wether to extend again or knock the lot down and start from scratch ??

[RedexRobB]

Build one, bricks dont cost that much (not sure about now) and you can always extend that if you need to. Might add value to your property too?

[masterofinsanity]

done it b4 robB? come and build me 1 then.

blockwork is cheapish, and easy enough to do mate. the costs are in the groundwork normally!
3k if you have a go yourself, for a single skin double garage with flat roof, aslong as your not on dodgy ground

[rene]

bricks are well expensive! A palet is £130 odd from B&Q...

[jake]

alot less than that from a good builders yard tho. B and q are ok for some stuff, but not much.

Ah, you see, I am renting, and although we don't plan on moving anywhere else, I'm not allowed to stick up a brick garage in the front driveway, even though there are layouts where there used to be one. Or two, Or three, over the years.

I'm looking for something that I can stash my ZXR400 in and finish it off really, as it's still in my Ex's garage. In bits. If it can fit my 2 other bikes in to park, that's a bonus. I really want shelter for tinkering space.

And if it costs more than £300odd, I think that buying a dog will have to wait.

what about one of them old concrete sectional garages? could you put one of them on a previous garage site?
you can normally get them free or near enough if you go and dismatle and collect. I think they may be classed as temporary like a shed, so no building regs etc..
