Our Bike Shed Features Explained

Side Storage

Often your space has room to extend either to the left or the right. The extended part can be used as secure lockable storage for garden equipment, tools, or anything that fits!

We offer our three most popular side storage sizes:

Small – (600mm) – with a single door
Medium (1200mm)
Large (2000mm) – which is actually a second Classic, so you can double up on bike storage
We build these units with a solid internal partition between the units, and a unified roof (felt or green), making it both robust and great to look at.

Please note: all references to ‘left’ or ‘right’ sides are when standing in front of the shed, looking at the front doors.

Bin Storage

What better way to conceal those ugly garden bins than within your new, beautiful bike shed. Available for either 2 or 3 bins, and as an open top option for the Classic.

Log Storage

The roof and walls are extended out by an extra 400mm, enough to take most sizes of logs. The floor of the log store is built in treated slats to allow good air flow under the logs.

Bay Window

If you have a smaller front garden in which the standard Classic is too wide to fit, the angled space behind the bay window becomes valuable bike storage worth making use of.

Plus Height

Add an extra 400mm of height to the standard Classic Shed, allowing a handy shelf to be added across the top of the bikes for helmets and other accessories.

Reverse Pitch Proof

Ideal for when a Classic Shed has to go up against a house wall, a reverse pitch roof will send rainwater forwards rather than backwards and away from the wall.

Scottish Larch

Fixed with a ‘shadow gap’ profile. Our signature cladding, with natural durability, aesthetics, affordability and sustainability.

Pine Slats

Fixed with 6mm gaps. The effect is architecturally striking, creating a strong light and shade contrast, and fits seamlessly with contemporary garden design.

Cedar Slats

Fixed with 6mm gaps. The tightness of the grain, natural durability and refined appearance make western red cedar an extremely high-quality option.

Pine T&G

Machined profile, this cladding offers a more precise look. This is the option if you intend to paint your cladding, or it can be left to weather to a silver grey.

Cedar T&G

This cladding has a contemporary premium look that enhances any garden. Over time western red cedar will weather to a beautiful silver-grey colour.

Charred Scottish Larch

Our signature cladding with a charred and oiled finish. The charring of the wood offers extra protection as well as an amazing backdrop to planting.

Painted Slats - Grey

Fixed with 6mm gaps. The slats are individually painted in a breathable exterior paint. A modern and striking shade of grey.

Painted Slats - Black

Fixed with 6mm gaps. The slats are individually painted in a breathable exterior paint. Looks great next to greenery.

FAQs

Is The Classic Bike Shed right for me?

If you’re looking for outdoor bike storage for small spaces, The Classic is right for you. Designed to be as compact as possible, featuring a low roof height and double doors, it is ideal for any outdoor setting.

In fact, the low roof height makes it a perfect bike shed for front gardens. And if you’re looking for a solution suitable for the back garden, we recommend adding the plus height option as it gives you a bit more room to access your bike.

If The Classic is too small for you, we recommend checking out our vertical bike shed, which is larger allowing individual access to your bikes. Alternatively, check out our full range wooden bike sheds.

What size are our bike storage sheds?

The Classic bike shed measures 1.35m Height, and 2m Width, and the depth varies depending on how many bikes you need to store.

1 bike – 0.8m
2 bikes – 0.9m
3 bikes – 1m
4 bikes – 1.15m
5 bikes – 1.25m
6 bikes – 1.35m
Roof overhangs should also be accounted for; these are 40mm on each side and front, plus 80mm of gutter on the rear.

Be sure to double-check the size of your space before ordering to ensure the shed fits.

Is The Classic bike shed secure?

Yes. We’ve worked hard over the years to improve our designs, building security into all our sheds layer by layer. Not only does this delay intrusion, but it also makes a silent attack virtually impossible.

Our security features include:

Robust Door Hinges: We use heavy-duty galvanised T-hinges, fitted externally using galvanised steel security screws. A pair of 200m galvanised bolts lock off the secondary door internally. Turning the key on the primary door extends a hardened steel long-throw bolt behind the secondary door. The lock itself is coach bolted to the door frame to deter the use of crowbars.
SecureBar: A thick-walled galvanised steel tube fitted into the frame on the back shed wall. It would require noisy power tools to cut through it. Our SecureBar is easy to lock bikes to using your D-locks (Classic, Vertical units), or a security chain and padlock that runs through all the bikes. (Or best of all, a combination of both chain and D-locks).
Timber cladding: Timber cladding is firmly nailed on in three rows. Removal of it is made impossible by the roof overhang, which clamps the cladding in place around the top. Slatted cladding is given an additional run of lost head screws alongside the existing screws to deter the prising off of slats. The doors are given an extra layer of fixings and are nailed through the back and front.

How does the visualiser tool work?

To visualise your ideal bike shed, click on “Design your bike shed now” at the top of the page. This will open up our easy-to-use configuration tool where you can build a bike shed that works for you.

Once you’ve designed the shed, you can visualise it in your space to make sure it fits. Simply click on the AR (augmented reality) tool, scan the QR code using your phone’s camera, follow the prompts and it’ll appear right in front of your eyes.

If you need a second opinion, whether your partner, family member or friend, simply click the share button and send a version of the final configuration to whoever you wish to see it.

Do we offer installation?

We do! Our full installation service is available if you’re based in the South East of England and surrounding areas, which is charged at £316.00. Units larger than 5 cubic metres are subject to additional installation charges and these are calculated at checkout.

If you are ordering a bespoke product further installation costs might also apply and will be itemised on your detailed quotation.

How easy is it to self-assemble?

The Classic bike shed is fairly straightforward to install, only requiring a basic understanding of carpentry/DIY, alongside an 18V battery drill.

The installation time depends on the amount of add-ons you have, however, a standard Classic bike shed will take 3-4 hours to fully assemble. This is because most of the shed is pre-assembled in our workshop.

Our bike sheds come with a full set of clear and simple self-assembly instructions. Please let us know if you would like a PDF version of the instructions sent to you before deciding whether to self-assemble.

If in any doubt, we recommend selecting our installation service, which is available for certain locations and offered at checkout if applicable.

What is the lead time on ordering a bike shed?

The current lead times are 8-10 weeks. Once you order, we’ll send a confirmation with an estimated delivery date, and/or installation slot.

Please note, that the lead time varies depending on the time of year; during periods of higher demand, it can extend to 12 weeks.

Can I make a bespoke order?

If you require non-standard or bespoke sizes or finishes, use our bespoke enquiry form or email us at info@brightonbikesheds.co.uk with an image or two of the space. Please also include a description of your storage needs, dimensions (WxDxH), and your postcode. If you send a photo or a quick sketch of the layout, that really helps.

We’ll reply with a free detailed quotation. If you’re happy to proceed, just reply to confirm your order and we’ll send you an invoice for the agreed cost. Once we have received your payment, you will receive an installation date. Your shed will be built in our workshop and delivered and installed typically within 8 weeks.

Do you offer a guarantee?

If you have an issue with your new shed, please email us photos, and we’ll arrange a suitable date to fix it.

If your product is Self-Assembled, the issue may be due to incorrect installation. In these cases, we will do our utmost to help you fix the issue by email or telephone.

Please read our Terms & Conditions for full Guarantee terms.
