Insurance approved bike sheds

[cirian75]

As part of getting a bike, I want an insurance approved bike shed.

My problem it will have to down gap that's 1300mm wide and about 4m long, but will also need get to the other side of it semi regular.

The wall you can see between the gardens is 5 foot tall brick.

Suggestions?

I know nothing of bike sheds but, if I understand the question correctly then, surely they are to be assembled on-site and arrive 'flat-packed' so should be no problem to get down the alleyway?

Is it likely to get broken into?

If you’re just playing safe then get a joiner to custom build a wooden shed. A lot of insurance companies now accept those without question.

Line it with ply, use coach bolts and secure locks and it will do 90% of the job a metal shed will do.

Its access post constriction that's the issue.

If you build something 'custom', you can build it full width and have a door at both ends....

Are you asking how you get the bike shed down there?

or are you asking how you get your bike down a 130mm wide gap?

As I understood it, he needs to get access to the house (window?) beyond the shed despite the shed needing to take up pretty much all of the available width. Hence my suggestion that the shed has a door at both ends.
I may be wrong. And we may never know, as he hasn't returned since
