Often the most cost-effective choice of all garden sheds, metal garden sheds are accurately produced in modern factories, with high quality materials, precise surfaces and dimensions and a machine-made pre-painted finish.
With clean modern lines and elegant styling that is perfectly in tune with the more contemporary style of home and garden, metal garden sheds sit well within architectural hard landscaping and planting schemes and are also eminently suited for retail, commercial and leisure use in e.g. caravan parks and other public settings.
Practical and versatile, metal garden sheds are rot, frost and vermin proof and are normally given extensive factory applied treatments to protect against rust and corrosion in order to ensure many years of lasting durability and performance in all extremes of climate and weather. In addition, the wide range of coloured and textured finishes available makes the metal garden shed a popular choice both for good looks and low maintenance in a wide variety of applications and settings.
Metal garden sheds also offer considerable benefits in terms of improved security against break-ins and, with the incorporation of robust locking systems, provide an ideal and safe storage space where chemicals, cleaners and similar products can be kept safely away from children and pets. At the same time, the inherent strength and rigidity of metal garden sheds gives them the ability to withstand many years of wear and tear in heavy duty situations where other materials would not be suitable.
Standardised parts and factory manufacture ensure that metal sheds are easy and rapid to assemble by the average home handyman, using only simple DIY tools and equipment. In some cases, where larger sizes are involved and the metal shed will be used as a garage or workshop, it may be better to have the shed delivered, assembled and erected by the supplier, especially if groundwork or special flooring is required as these tasks may be beyond the capability of the home handyman.
Metal sheds require little or no maintenance apart from occasional cleaning and inspection and oiling of moving parts as required. The paint finishes as supplied are intended to give many years of trouble free service and should not require any special attention during the normal life of the building. If in doubt consult the manufacturer.
Metal garden sheds are usually offered with an exceptional range of standardised accessories and fittings including choices of fixed or opening windows and single or double doors to ensure great versatility of application. In addition, some metal shed manufacturers offer sliding or roller shutter doors to give improved access and storage for larger vehicles and pieces of equipment
