Metal Garden Shed Reviews

I'm delighted with my Gladiator P1 with storage pack. This came with shelves, hooks, a ramp and flooring. I'd have preferred the option to have two more shelves instead of the hooks but it's still good value compared to buying separately. The shed itself is excellent. It was assembled by two very nice guys from Asgard. Given its size, I wasn't going to attempt to assemble myself. I think the assembly cost of £275 is a bargain and well worth it. The finished shed is secure, blends in with the garden and trees and is extremely secure. I use it to store my mower and garden tools as well as four bikes. They all fit in comfortably so there's room for more. Expensive, yes but you get what you pay for. My only suggestion would be to include a pot of touch up paint with each shed. I spotted a couple of scratches and have this on its way. It would be a nice touch if included.

Chose this shed to provide a long lasting solution that doesn’t require any maintenance. After viewing the video of how to build I was confident that I could complete the task albeit with the help of my grandson. Looks great and also purchased flooring, hooks and shelves.

As promised our 10 year old gladiator plus one looks after all my toys still like brand new inside and out apart from attracting the pigeons

I had some experience with an Asgard shed as I had helped a relative put up a different model of Centurion. I decided to go for the bundle offer with the accessories as it is cheaper than purchasing them separately. The delivery service was able to accommodate my requirements exactly and were very helpful. The intended site was already laid out with concrete slabs so that considerably reduced the preparation time. A level base is best for good results when assembling. Shims are provided to take up any inconsistencies if required. The panels are heavy, so it is a two-person job! I used a small electric drill driver on a low torque setting in order to prevent stripping any of the crosshead self-tapping screws which make up the bulk of the fasteners. Only two or three screws are required to be inserted in order to secure each panel into position and you can leave the rest of them until the shed is fully assembled. Depending upon the accessories to be installed, some of the screws serve a dual purpose, so if you insert all of them at the start, you may well have to remove some of them again! What was not immediately obvious to me was that the rear section of the shed is slightly longer than the front section, so the two floor panels are different sizes to accommodate this. Silicone sealant was supplied for the roof jointing strip and the join between the two main sections. I found that it was useful to have an extra tube to hand just in case ….The doors are fastened by short countersunk bolts, and I found that it was easier to use an ordinary screwdriver to eliminate the chance of stripping either threads or crossheads or both. The ramp should be put in position next, as it slides under the front of the base. Once all of the self-tappers had been installed in the base panels, then it was time to fasten the shed to the concrete slabs using the masonry bolts supplied. I used stainless screws to secure the ramp onto the decking via the two screw holes provided. The floor panels slotted in perfectly, sitting just slightly proud of the metal. I painted these to match the colour of the decking outside, but that was personal preference and not strictly necessary. I then installed the two shelves, which only fit across the back of the shed and not the sides – so bear this in mind. After this was the tool rack, which in the case of the 5x7 shed, may only be fitted in either of the rear side panels as the front and rear are different lengths. This unfortunately means that the back part of the tool rack may only be used to hang shorter implements because it overlaps with the shelves. The hooks and eyelets completed the job. Purchasing the shed and accessories together meant that they are all colour matched, which is nice. However, one item which was supplied in green was the ten u-shaped brackets designed to be fastened into matching slots just under the roof. I have yet to learn exactly what these are for, since they do not appear to be structural. Finally, take care not to misplace any of the self-tapping screws as an exact quantity is supplied and I used every single one of them.The only poor experience I had was because the four M5 bolts which were supposed to be used to secure the front and rear of the ridge panel were missing from the pack supplied and this necessitated a quick shopping trip - now that this additional cost has been incurred, perhaps Asgard would be kind enough to compensate me by supplying some brown touch-up paint! I am very pleased with this shed and I can thoroughly recommend this product as secure and sturdy enough to last a lifetime.

Great shed, easy to install. Recommend using more silicone than you think on the joints, also a bit of black gutter sealant works well in the roof joints outside. Also when it says a flat surface they mean really flat. We had some trouble aligning bolt holes as our surface was a little off

I've had the shed for over a year and waited until it had been up through all weathers. In the past I've had brick, plastic, wood and other metal sheds but none can compete with this one. I stored old blankets, cushions, furniture, tools etc etc to test through all weathers. There has been no condensation or dust or water ingress. No musty odours or damp as would be in other sheds. My home is open to the street so I love having a safe secure storage solution that matches the house because of the colours available. See photo. 10 out of 10. Delivery and communication were excellent. Highly recommended.

I have been looking for a quality shed for a while now when I came across Asgard sheds. I cannot recommend this shed enough! Extremely happy with the service and quality of the product. I also assembled it myself within 2 hours - it was a very straight-forward and enjoyable experience! The shed is so secure I feel confident leaving my mower and tools in it. I would recommend this shed to anyone!

Today’s job was to build the new @AsgardStorage shed for the vegetable plot at home. Desperately needed to tidy the mess from around the greenhouse door. And also in preparation for emptying the greenhouse which is coming down as soon as the tomatoes have finished.

Hi guys just thought I'd share with you a few photographs of my 10 year old Asgard fisherman's shed after being taken down and transferred to our new home just before Christmas. It has sat neglected and alone down the side of the house until today but now it's back up and in it's new home it looks as good as new. Not a sign of rust and everything went back together just as well as when it first went up 10 years ago. Bomb proof bit of kit ... We have even managed to bring two of the garden Lights into the shed for illumination.

@AsgardStorage Thanks for the 7ft x3ft Combined Metal Garden & Bike Shed. Here’s my son hanging his bike up! Thanks from the Foster Fam x
