Why Choose an Outsunny Shed?
- Built for British Weather — Outsunny sheds are constructed from galvanised steel, durable plastic, or treated timber, all designed to withstand rain, wind, and UV exposure year-round. Corrosion-resistant frames and weatherproof panels keep your stored items dry and protected in all conditions.
- Affordable Quality — Outsunny delivers robust, well-built storage at competitive prices. Whether you're looking for a budget-friendly metal shed or a premium wooden garden room, the range offers lasting value without compromising on build quality.
- Versatile Storage Solutions — From bin stores and tool sheds to bike sheds and large multi-purpose storage units, there's an Outsunny shed designed for every storage need. Many models include shelving, hooks, and internal fittings to maximise usable space.
- Easy Assembly & Low Maintenance — All Outsunny sheds include step-by-step instructions and the necessary fixings for self-assembly. Metal and plastic models require minimal ongoing maintenance; wooden models benefit from an occasional coat of preservative to extend their lifespan.
The Five Things to Consider When Buying a Garden Shed
- 1. Size & Footprint — Measure your available space carefully before ordering, including height clearance. Consider not just what you need to store now, but what you might need to store in the future. A shed that's slightly larger than you think you need will always prove more useful than one that's too small.
- 2. Material — Metal sheds are the most durable and low-maintenance option, resistant to rot and pests. Plastic sheds are lightweight and completely weatherproof with no maintenance required. Wooden sheds offer the most attractive appearance and can be painted or stained to match your garden, but require periodic treatment to prevent rot.
- 3. Security — If you're storing valuable items such as bikes, tools, or garden machinery, prioritise security. Look for sheds with reinforced doors, sturdy hinges, and a hasp and staple fitting for a padlock. Windowless designs prevent opportunistic theft by keeping contents out of sight.
- 4. Base & Anchoring — Most sheds require a solid, level base — either a concrete slab, paving slabs, or a timber frame. Check whether a base frame or floor panel is included with your chosen model. In exposed or windy locations, anchor the shed to the base using the provided fixings or a ground anchor kit.
- 5. Access & Ventilation — Consider how you'll use the shed day-to-day. Double doors make it easier to move large items in and out. Ventilation panels or windows help prevent condensation build-up, which can damage stored items over time. If you plan to use the shed as a workspace, natural light and ventilation are particularly important.
Find Your Perfect Outsunny Shed
Garden Tool Sheds — Keep lawnmowers, spades, forks, and watering cans organised and accessible. A dedicated tool shed prevents clutter and protects your equipment from weather damage, extending the life of your tools.
Bike Sheds — Safely store bicycles away from weather and potential theft. An Outsunny bike shed provides a secure, weatherproof space that keeps bikes ready to use and out of the way when not needed.
Bin Stores — Conceal wheelie bins and recycling containers with a neat, purpose-built bin store. Keeps your garden looking tidy and prevents bins from being blown over in wind.
Metal Sheds — Galvanised steel construction offers maximum durability and resistance to rot, pests, and corrosion. The most low-maintenance option for long-term outdoor storage.
Plastic Sheds — Completely weatherproof and requiring zero maintenance. Lightweight and easy to assemble, plastic sheds are ideal for storing garden furniture, cushions, and seasonal items.
Wooden Sheds — The most attractive option for garden aesthetics. Wooden sheds can be painted or stained to complement your garden design and are ideal for use as a workshop or hobby space as well as storage.
Buying Tips
- Measure twice, order once — Check the shed's external footprint, internal dimensions, and door opening width before ordering. Ensure there's enough clearance around the shed for door opening and maintenance access.
- Prepare your base first — A level, solid base is essential for proper door alignment and structural integrity. Install your base before the shed arrives to avoid delays.
- Consider future storage needs — It's almost always worth sizing up. A shed that feels slightly too large now will quickly fill up as your garden grows.
- Don't overlook security — Even if you're not storing high-value items now, fitting a quality padlock from the outset is a simple, low-cost precaution.
