6'4 x 2'9 Trimetals Ramped Metal Bike Shed - Green (1.95m x 0.88m)

How many bikes does the Trimetals Ramped Metal Bike Shed hold?

This shed is designed to store up to 3 adult bicycles. The internal width is 1800mm and the internal depth is 840mm, giving enough room to stand bikes side by side. It can also be used for general garden storage if you don't need all three spaces for bikes.

Does the ramp support electric bikes?

Yes. The integral ramp is built from a single-piece aluminium plate with reinforced metal hinges and is strong enough to support the combined weight of a cyclist and their bicycle including heavier electric bikes. When not in use, the ramp folds back to form part of the metal base and sits behind the shed door, out of reach from the outside.

What is the 25-year panel guarantee?

Trimetals provides a 25-year guarantee on the panels of this bike shed. This covers the PVC-coated galvanised steel panels against defects. It's one of the longest guarantees available on a metal bike store and reflects the quality of the UK construction and materials used.

Are padlocks included with the shed?

No, padlocks are not included. The shed comes with two padlock points as standard. Trimetals recommends using two padlocks. You can purchase a solid brass padlock set (with hardened steel shackles and two keys each) for £34.99, or a hasp and padlock pair in stainless steel and brass for £69.99 as an optional extra.

Is the shed difficult to assemble?

No. All major components arrive factory assembled, which significantly reduces the work needed on site. Clear step-by-step instructions are included. No specific tools are listed as required. The shed is described as very easy to assemble, making it suitable for most people without specialist DIY skills.

Does the shed need any maintenance?

No maintenance is required. The PVC-coated galvanised steel construction means the shed is completely rust-resistant and weatherproof. There's no painting, treating or sealing needed at any point. This saves both time and money over the life of the product, which is backed by the 25-year panel guarantee.

Can the shed be secured to the ground?

Yes. Fixings are included to bolt the metal base to a wider concrete base for additional security. The ramp can also be padlocked to the door for extra protection. The two padlock points on the lid add further security. For maximum protection, Trimetals also offers an optional hasp and padlock pair that secures the front door to the base.

Is a wooden floor available and why would I need one?

Yes. An optional Ramped Bikestore Wooden Floor is available for £89.99. It's made from 1/2" (12mm) exterior grade plywood and sits on the base frame which raises it 3" (7.5cm) above ground level. This is useful if you want to keep the contents of the shed raised off the ground, for example to avoid damp or to make it easier to roll bikes in and out.
