Testimonial
“I bought one of your fab bike sheds back in May and we built up in June. I built it by myself, with just a bit of help needed to slide the top roof part on. Very proud of myself I was! Only getting around to sending you these pics now – we’re loving our shed.”

  • Padlock
  • Secure

Secure your garden tools with confidence

The Sentinel is designed to keep your possessions safe and secure with minimal hassle. A simple yet highly effective padlock system comes as standard — the padlock fits over the lifting mechanism, preventing the door from opening. This clever design allows you to secure the unit quickly while ensuring easy daily access when needed. For those looking for even greater peace of mind, optional additional hasps can be fitted to the lower section of the doors.

  • Wide Opening
  • Easy Loading

Full-Width Easy Access

The unique up-and-over door design allows the entire front of the Sentinel to open, giving you full, unrestricted access to your bikes and equipment. With no central posts or narrow openings to work around, loading and unloading is quick, easy, and hassle-free — even when handling multiple larger items.

  • Scratch resistant
  • 25 year guarantee

Constructed with high-performance materials

The Storeguard is constructed from PVC-coated galvanised steel, combining exceptional strength with long-term durability. We’re so confident in its performance that we offer a market-leading 25-year guarantee against rust perforation — giving you complete peace of mind. Unlike painted finishes, the tough PVC coating offers far greater scratch resistance, helping maintain the store’s appearance even with regular use. This is especially important when moving large or awkward items like bicycles in and out, ensuring the unit stays looking good for years to come.

We’ve spent the weekend putting together mum’s new garden storage and she’s very happy with how easy she can use it one-handed! Even suited to an 80-something year old!
