Corten Steel Bike Shed

Each corten steel bike shed is designed to be tailored to your space, storage needs, and visual preferences. From the number of bikes you need to store to your choice of roof finish and layout, every detail can be configured to suit your garden. The corten steel cladding works seamlessly with our core design, allowing you to create a metal bike shed that feels both practical and architecturally considered.

Corten steel provides a strong and durable outer layer that enhances the overall security of your bike shed. Designed for long-term outdoor use, it develops a hardened protective surface that resists damage from weather and external impact. Combined with robust internal fixings and secure locking systems, this creates a reliable solution for keeping your bikes protected all year round.

The sheds are covered with timber cladding, shielded by a roof overhang to deter forced entry. Inside, a 32mm galvanised steel SecureBar allows for a secure anchor point using locks or chains.

Pairing corten steel with a living green roof creates a balanced approach to outdoor storage that considers both durability and environmental impact. The rich, weathered tones of the steel contrast naturally with the greenery above, helping the shed blend into its surroundings. This combination supports biodiversity while softening the look of metal bike storage, making it a considered addition to any garden space.

Price range: £1,353 through £3,151

Our Bestselling Configuration

Classic Bike Shed

Compact design ideal for front gardens.

Compact Steel Bike Storage

Aesthetic and Durable

Corten steel is a highly resistant material that turns to a natural red rust colour as it improves with age and weathers. The colour allows it to blend in with its environment with ease.

Secure All-Year-Round

You can rest easily knowing that your bike is stored safely and securely inside a corten steel bike shed. We only use the best materials in the industry, making this shed theft and weather-resistant.

Efficient Storage

With the ability to store up to 6 bikes in our compact bike sheds, you can utilise the space you already have while thinking about functionality and aesthetic appeal. With our Corten steel bike storage, you can maintain a sleek profile while the shed fits seamlessly into your outdoor garden setting.

Sustainable Materials

We merge high quality with sustainability to create our eco-friendly Corten steel bike sheds. You can also add an optional living green roof, letting you protect the planet & your bike at the same time.

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.

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

Corten Steel Bike Sheds FAQs

Is The Corten Steel Bike Shed Sustainable?

Yes. As Corten steel is a sustainable material, this makes our bike shed sustainable too. Here at Brighton Bike Sheds, we only use the best materials that are also gentle on the planet.

Due to the complexity of the installation, we only offer our Corten steel bike sheds with our professional installation service. However, this means that our expert team will take care of everything, so you won’t have to! All we ask is that you ensure the ground is ready before we arrive.

Our Corten steel bike storage stands at 1.35M, making it the perfect compact bike storage option for 1-6 bikes. If you opt for a living roof, this will add 10cm to the height, but will help it to further blend in with the environment.

You will have the option to choose how many bicycles you need to store. This can be from as little as 1, all the way up to 6.

We aim to install your bike shed within 8 weeks of receipt. However, in busier periods, this can take up to 12 weeks. Please ensure that the ground is ready for the shed when our team comes to install it, or this can cause setbacks and delays.

 

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

A high quality metal bike shed provides strong resistance against tampering and harsh weather, which is why many cyclists choose it for long term security. Our Corten steel bike shed is a premium form of metal bike storage that offers much greater strength than standard sheet metal, while also blending naturally into the garden as it develops its protective patina.

Most metal bike storage products use thin galvanised steel panels, while Corten steel is a structural grade alloy designed to weather slowly and harden over time. This gives our steel bike shed a high strength exterior that protects your bikes from the elements and improves in durability as it ages.

A well built steel bike shed can last for decades with minimal maintenance. Corten steel is designed for outdoor environments and forms a stable layer that prevents deeper corrosion. This makes it one of the most durable steel bike storage solutions available for homes where longevity and low upkeep matter.

Yes. Corten steel performs well in coastal climates due to its naturally forming protective surface. Unlike lightweight metal bike storage units that may deteriorate quickly near the sea, our Corten steel bike shed is engineered to withstand varied conditions across the South East and beyond.
