Bike sheds offer compact storage suitable for securing adults’ and children’s bicycles safe from the weather and out of sight of opportunistic thieves. The units you see here are constructed from FSC-certified timber, using either tongue-and-groove or overlap construction methods, and feature either a pent or an apex roof. All our bike sheds feature double-opening doors for ease of access. For more information on all our sheds and outdoor buildings, take a look at our shed buying guide, where you’ll find all the info you need to help you choose the right shed to suit your needs.

 

Which bike shed is best for you?

Ask yourself how many bikes would you like to store, and whether they’re children’s or adult bikes? If you’re looking for a unit big enough to house bikes for a family of four, it might be better to opt for one of our smaller metal sheds, which are windowless and offer a high level of security. If it’s a couple of adult bikes or up to three children’s bicycles, one of our 7x3 bike storage sheds will do the job admirably.

Shiplap or overlap bike sheds?

While there’s a small difference in price, shiplap is the option to go for if you’re looking for airtight protection for your bikes. Not only are shiplap boards designed to allow water to drain away easily, but because they’re tongue and groove boards, they fit together firmly, stopping damp draughts from penetrating – great for stopping your bike frame and components from corroding. Overlap timber still does a great job of protecting your belongings from the rain, but while these boards overlap, they’re not jointed, and air will penetrate. Want more info?

Alternative uses for bike sheds

A bike shed is essentially a small storage unit that offers excellent dry storage for a range of garden tools and equipment as well as smaller items of patio furniture, your gas barbecue and more. Perfect for smaller outside spaces like courtyards, patios, and decking areas, these tough, attractive units offer plenty of versatility at a very affordable price point.
