We recommend you have a 50mm concrete (or similar) base for our sheds to sit on. A level surface will ensure the shed doors function correctly. A flat surface means the doors will open smoothly and will make assembly much easier. We do not recommend you put your shed on grass or soil. Due to the material quality of our metal sheds, they are exceptionally heavy and will sink into soft ground. Asgard metal shed base sizes can be found at the bottom of each product page.
No, we can leave the shed components in a pre-arranged area. However, If you AGREE to us delivering your shed when you are not home, we cannot be held responsible for goods once we leave your premises. Under no circumstances will Asgard take responsibility for any loss or damage to unattended product.
No. Asgard sheds are the heaviest and most secure on the market. If you put your shed on your lawn it will eventually begin to sink. You may also find difficulty in the opening the doors if the shed is not level. Asgard recommended metal shed base sizes can be found at the bottom of each product page. If you need help with your shed base, try www.shedforce.co.uk for a guide on the best way to build a shed base.

Condensation is greatly reduced, due to our air flow system - discreet air holes within the panels - there is constant air flow therefore condensation rarely forms leaving your goods damp free.
The clue is in the weight. Asgard use very heavy gauge galvanized steel (none of the competition use the same grade of material). This makes the shed exceptionally strong and heavy and resistant to both weather and theft. Galvanised Steel Construction
LCPB is the Loss Prevention Certification Board an organisation specialising in testing the security qualities of products. Some of our metal sheds have been tested to level 1.

Both sheds are built in exactly the same way, both sheds feature the same tough Pick resistant locks,however, the Annexe has additional stiffeners in the doors and the frame work. These extra braces are designed to help to prevent entry from even determined thieves, so much so it has been awarded a level 1 rating from the Loss Prevention Certification Board. Which is for you?? That's personal choice. The Addition cycle store is a really tough shed suitable for most cycle users.

No, Asgard sheds are in no way fire rated. Our sheds are only fire proof in as much as that they are made of metal. A metal construction will mean they can’t easily be ignited and they will last a longer than wooden sheds in the event of fire. However Asgard sheds are not officially fire rated in anyway.
They are simple. We will occasionally run a promotional code, once a code has expired, then that is it. You will need to wait for the next code to get a discount.

The Asgard handle is designed to shear off in the event of an attempted break in, leaving the thief outside and your tools or bikes safe inside! It is the forceful damage to the handle will cause it to fall off. Once the handle is broken off, the only way to get into the shed, is by using the key.
If you have experienced this, and are needing to repair your lock, then please do so by following the instructions manual found here.
Once we have processed your order, we will email you your order confirmation the following day. On the confirmation there will be an anticipated date for dispatch and an order number, in case you need to phone us at all to discuss your order. A member of our dispatch department will phone you nearer the anticipated time to book a firm date for delivery to take place so you know exactly when the work will be carried out.
Yes of course, that's not a problem. Just let a member of our dispatch team know and we will pass the information on to our drivers, and if there is somewhere safe to leave the shed, you don't have to be there at all! We can even build the shed for you if required without you being on site!
Yes, just phone our Customer Services Team before the shed has been dispatched and we can add installation onto your order. Remember to have your firm, level surface in place prior to delivery/installation taking place.However, please note this may delay your order by 2-3 weeks as the unit has to arrive in our fitters warehouse first and then booked in by our installation team.
We use different sizes of vehicles such as transit vans to 7.5 ton vehicles to 17.5 ton vehicles so if you think you may have an access problem please speak to our Customer Services or Dispatch Team who will be happy to help.
We try to be as environmentally friendly as we can, so we don't package our sheds in any way at all. They are all loaded onto our vehicles in individual panels then we blanket and tie each one to keep them secure in transit. Our drivers will then carry each panel to where the secure metal shed is to be sited.
This really depends on the size of the metal shed, but it is wise to allow 1 ½ hrs for the bike stores and 2 -3 hours for the large walk in sheds such as the Centurion and Gladiator. We would also recommend that two people build the sheds due to the size and weight of each panel.
We only install Asgard sheds, not the ground anchors. Please be aware that if you are going to order a ground anchor these are only suitable for bases which are a minimum of 100mm concrete due to the self-expanding bolts.
Not normally. There are exceptions such as conservation areas and it is possible for neighbours to object. It is always worth checking with your local planning authority. We also recommend (out of courtesy) you ask your neighbours if it’s ok. Note that some areas of London may require planning permission for a shed placed at the front of a property. You MUST check before ordering. We will not accept returns based on planning objections.
In most circumstances you won’t need planning permission for your Asgard shed - there are some exceptions such as in a conservation area (though we have had customers who have). Some boroughs of London will not let you have a shed at the front of a property - It is always best to check with your local planning office if in doubt - however, here is some useful information.
Before you can make any alterations and improvements to your home, you will need to ensure that you meet certain building regulations and planning permissions from your local authority. This is so that any proposed building work meets safety requirements, local building regulations, Party walls, and Conservation areas. No outbuilding on land forward of a wall forming the principal elevation. (that means not in front of the house).
Outbuildings and garages to be single storey with maximum eaves height of 2.5 metres and maximum overall height of four metres with a dual pitched roof or three metres for any other roof. Maximum height of 2.5 metres in the case of a building,enclosure or container within two metres of a boundary of the curtilageof the dwellinghouse (that means the boundary of the whole plot). No verandas,balconies or raised platforms (where are we Australia? It's too cold for a veranda anyway, surely!). No more than half the area of land around the original house, would be covered by additions or other buildings. Asgard will take no responsibility for the need of planning permission, it is the customers responsibility to do the necessary checks.
Neither Planning Permission or Building Regulation approval is required provided that:
Sheds and greenhouses do not cover more than half of the area of the garden; not including the area occupied by the house.
It contains no sleeping accommodation and the floor area does not exceed 15 square metres.
No point is less than one metre from a boundary.
It is not more than 3m high for a flat roof, or 4m with a ridged roof.
No part projects beyond any wall of the house that faces a road. The outbuilding is for use only by those who occupy the house.
Building Regulations do state that structures built of combustible material (i.e. a wooden shed) must be at least 2 metres from the main house.
Please note: this information is given as a guide and it is your responsibility to contact your Local Authorities for more details. Asgard take no responsibility for customer planning issues. It is the customers responsibility to check with the Local Authorities if in doubt.
Customers have found that Asgard Sheds do not require planning permission. Has the council refused planning permission for a traditional garage?? Try an Asgard motorcycle garage - they normally do not require planning permission! Customer experience with Council Planning: "Hello, i chose your product as it was one of the only secure insurance approved small garages i could find that could fit my Triumph Rocket 3 inside with enough room to spare. My house is grade 2 listed and a conventional garage would have cost 20k to have built to match my house which is a lot to just park a bike in! Took two of us with a cordless drill each 2 hours to build with no dramas. Ample fixings provided so no worries about losing the occassional screw. Doors close and align perfectly and it keeps the rain out but due to its air vents it breathes inside so no condensation issues. I would recomend your product where a conventional build garage is not an option or if you want a garage you can take with you if you rent or move house regularly".
Asgard shed base sizes Before building your Asgard shed, it is important to make sure you have a good, firm base for your shed to sit on. Your shed should sit on a level base of either concrete, tarmac or paving slabs.
Preparing a base for your Asgard shed When preparing a base for your shed, the base should be built bigger than your shed. This is very important!
Our sheds can all be bolted down to a concrete base as an added security measure. If the shed base is built to the exact size of the shed and you attempt to bolt the shed down, the impact of the drill can cause the concrete below to break and crumble.
How can I find the base size for my shed? On each product page, the shed base dimensions can be seen on the ‘dimensions’ tab. These dimensions are the minimum recommended size that your shed base should be built to. Please note that the shed base should also be a minimum of 50mm/2”thick. However if you are planning on installing a ground anchor, your shed base should be a minimum of 100mm/ 4” thick.

The Rota Force Ground Anchor is very simple to install and comes with all the fittings and instructions you need. You will need to make sure you have a drill and that the ground anchor is being installed on a level concrete base.
The Asgard Bike Access sheds are unique as the not only have an integral metal base, they also have an optional wooden flooring inside the bike shed. However, this means that if you are installing a ground anchor within an Asgard bike shed, you will need to make sure that you cut out the area from the wooden flooring as seen here. Next you will need to drill through the metal floor and into the concrete base, and fix the Ground anchor using the fittings provided. However, please note that drilling through the base of the bike shed will result in the 10-year warranty becoming invalid on that panel as it has been modified. We recommend to treat the area around the holes with a rust inhibitor to protect against any rust over time. How to fit a gound anchor. How to fit a ground anchor into a shed
The Brute Force Anchor can be used in conjunction with the Hardcore Chain Lock, both of which are available from Asgard. Click to browse through our range of heavy duty bike chains.
Sold Secure is an organisation dedicated to reducing the risk of crime by testing security products. Sold Secure attack tests all types of security products - from padlocks to alarm systems - and rates their findings as Gold, Silver or Bronze. Look out for the Sold Secure logo.
The bicycle security requirements of most cycle insurance policies stipulate Sold Secure rated products. The higher the cycle value, the higher the rating required. Please check with your insurance company for more details.
Many motorbike insurance companies offer a discount on your insurance premium provided you keep your motorbike locked using a Thatcham approved security product. Many of our motorbike chain locks are Thatcham approved. Please check with your insurance company for more details.
The Monster Chain lock comes with 2 free keys and a replacement key service is also provided from Oxford. Simply contact them directly for a Key Replacement Form. Please note that there is a charge for this service.
The Cycle Screamer is very simple to use. Simply attach the lock to either the Disc brake or the front cassette. Click here to see a short video demonstration of the Cycle Screamer Lock.
Thanks for the question. The Addition and Annexe bike store are basically the same metal shed aesthetically. However, The Annexe has had extra steel sections added to the panels and doors, to achieve an insurance rating of level 1. The Addition bike store is more than adequate for most uses. The Annexe is a 'beefed up' version and is ideal if you live in a remote area where any potential thief would have an excessive amount of time to try and enter the shed. The Annexe is popular with serious riders who have high value bikes to protect.
This is a belt and braces approach to security. The pack contains a ground anchor and chain, both approved. So not only is your bike in a super tough bike store, but also chained to the shed inside. This will give you a discount on your cycle insurance. This is ideal if you have shared ownership of the metal shed. i.e. one bike can't be removed without permission.
The Addition will fit up to 3 bikes in and the Access is designed to house up to 4. Though you need to check the dimensions of the bikes. If the bikes are very wide (over sized bars) you may only get 2 in, though if they are small bikes you could more than the recommended amount in.
No. We would recommend the Access bike store for an electric bike, as it is wider and deeper than the Addition. Though you must always check the size of your individual bike.
This allows rain water to fall away from the house (if you butt your shed against a house or wall) So you won't get a build up of mold behind the shed.
This is so there is enough material to drill into. If the base is the same size as the bike store, it will crumble as you drill the fixing bolts into the ground.
We recommend you bolt the shed down to prevent thieves tipping the metal shed over to try and break in or moving the shed. Though this does depend on your location.
Currently they are the no1 seller in the UK, so we are quietly confident they are pretty good! All our metal sheds have integral metal floors, no exposed fixtures, approved locking*, a security rating*, thick heavy gauge steel, multiple locking points and floor bolts! - This is what makes our sheds so tough none of the competition offer all this!!
These provide protection for the built in metal floor of the sheds, to prevent scratches and marks. They also help to prolong the life of your bike tyres.
Yes and no. The lid is heavy as it is reinforced for security, however, the lid is on gas lifts, so lifting the lid is virtually effortless when in use.
LPCB stands for Loss Prevention Certification Board. This is an organization that assessed the security qualities of all sorts of products. Products with an LPCB rating normally benefits from insurance discounts. In essence they give an individual a set of tools and a specific time in which to gain access to the bike shed. If they fail, the bike shed passes.
Two locks = twice the security. As the roof is very large we decided two locks would provide the best security for your precious bikes (one lock at each end). The locks are suited the same key opens both locks, also these are level 8 rated locks, not cheap rubbish!
All our bike sheds have built in vents in the roof. Though, we never say never, we have found that it is rare to get excessive moisture inside our sheds. We at Asgard all have our bikes in them at home! You must adhere to the installation guide to ensure your shed is correctly situated, to reduce the condensation risk.
Asgards are galvanized and powder coated, so they don't rust under normal circumstances. All you need to do is give them a wipe every so often and they will continue to give excellent performance for years. See our metal shed care section on the website.
Yes we can. For more information, check the right hand side of the product page. At the top of the list you should see the relevant installation. The sheds always come with fully illustrated instructions, so they are easy enough to build yourself. Expect it to take around an hour for two people. Be warned, some of the panels are heavy.
The twin bike locker is designed for a different use than our other bike stores. The twin bike locker is really for areas where there is little space, i.e. a small courtyard or down the side of a house. The twin bike locker, fits two bikes in a secure manner in a very narrow area (also hooks are provided for bags, helmets etc.) The twin bike locker has the same locking system as the Addition bike store.
Asgard don't supply any camouflage for our sheds. However some customers have found ways of blending garden and bike storage together. - Asgard take no responsibility for after market modifications made to sheds.
This really depends on how you put your bike in! Mark our independent review at Singletrack World got 7 in! We can comfortably get 4 in with all our gear as well.

The Asgas range of gas bottle storage has been designed with Calor Gas. Even though the metal sheds lock, they are semi open at the back and have side vents to disperse any small leaks.
The Gas storage sheds are made from the same tough, galvanised (weather proof) steel as all our other sheds. However, they don't feature the same locking system as the other products. As it is a legal requirement that the gas valves are accessible.Instead our Gas sheds feature a lift up lid (for valve access) and a bar across the back which you can chain the cylinders to, to prevent theft.
Yes, though some drilling is required through the base of the shed if fitting inside an Asgard shed. You must remember to treat any holes drilled in your asgard with a rust protector or your warranty will be void. Fin out how to fit a ground anchor here

The size of your garden building will depend on the amount of space available. From experience, we know that the storage space a garden shed provides will always be used, so buy the biggest shed you can afford as long as it fits comfortably in the space available. At Asgard, we offer a wide range of sizes to suit every space. If you are replacing an existing shed, you should consider whether to have the same size again or perhaps larger. You should also consider whether your shed will be used regularly, will require easy access, single or double doors and a ramp access.
Ideally your garden shed should have a clear space which is slightly larger than the shed itself and that the entrance will not be restricted. This ensures easy access for both installation and future maintenance. You should also cut back or remove any nearby shrubs and trees and remember to allow for future growth. Read the article here to help you decide where to locate your Asgard metal shed.
All sheds need a substantial base. The base should be solid, square, flat and level to ensure the stability of your shed. We recommend using paving slabs, tarmac or concrete. A solid concrete base is more permanent and provides an excellent base for a metal shed. Paving slabs are another practical and cost effective option, especially for a smaller shed. Remember that extra time spent preparing a good base is normally repaid with time saved later on during the installation Read the article on building a base for your Shed.
The Asgard metal sheds are delivered in individual panels and will require assembling. The Assembly of a shed from Asgard is a straight forward as all sheds can be installed with only basic tools, such as a hammer, a screwdriver, a power drill, a spirit level, an adjustable spanner. All the necessary fixtures and fittings required are provided with the shed as well as easy to follow illustrated instructions. However, if you are not a DIY enthusiast, we also offer a Shed Installation Service - please contact us for more details.
Yes, some of our metal sheds have an optional electric power point which can be fitted to the shed to provide an electricity supply to a garden shed. Please note that we recommend that you consult an approved electrician to fit this.
A metal shed may be susceptible to excess dampness and condensation without adequate planning and preparation. However, the Asgrd metal garden sheds have an integral ventilation system in the roof minimizes the build up of condensation inside the shed, keeping your equipment dry and safe. If the shed bases are not constructed properly, a damp base will almost certainly cause condensation to form so always ensure that the concrete or slab base is of the correct size i.e. slightly larger than the shed base. We also advise that the edges of the base should be towelled smooth and slightly angled down towards the edge so that water seepage does not occur. Another important point is to make sure there are no plants or bushes close to the shed which may cause moisture to enter the metal shed.
The Asgard metal shed is constructed with galvanised steel panels and a hardwearing paint coat and is very low maintenance compared to a wooden shed which requires constant care to prevent dampness and rioting.
Yes - the Asgard steel sheds are designed and built to not only with stand attack from theft and break-ins but also to withstand the wet and windy weather. The Asgard metal garden sheds are all coated with a hardwearing paint finish to prevent rust to the shed and include features such as an inbuilt ventilation system and integral rain guard on the roof of the doors.
