Case Study
Surfboard Storage
Design Brief:
Storage for two adult bikes, a scooter, pram and two adult surfboards.
Small London front garden with steps down from street level to a main tiles area and narrow basement level. The basement level can be utilised but needs to remain accessible.
Design Solution:
A tall front hedge allowed for a vertical shed option with the bikes on hangers and the scooter and pram (folded) tucked in a corner. The longer surfboards are stored vertically on the right side of the shed , extending down through an open section of floor to the basement level. The shed is supported on the right side by a solid open frame to allow occasional access below.
The shed is secured by two keyed alike deadbolt locks with an internal anchor point for chaining the bikes within.

Do I need a concrete base for the shed?
A solid level base is required to ensure your shed works as intended, and prevent misalignment over time. A concrete slab is ideal, however units can also be built upon paving, tiles or decking. Gravel and soil are unfortunately not suitable bases.
All sheds are supplied with adjustable metal feet to ensure the unit is made level during assembly. If your space is particularly uneven or has a steep slope, please let us know.
