What is the benefit of buying a metal shed over a wooden shed?

Metal sheds constitute a great option if your desire is to convert your shed into a workshop or merely use it for garden storage. There are a number of advantages which can be solely attributed to metal sheds:

  • They provide superb security - Metal sheds can provide extra protection against thieves, due to featuring reinforced hinges which assist in preventing forced entry. Similarly, the doors and walls offer thick, steel panels which cannot be easily broken into.

  • Maintenance free - The amount of time spent on maintaining a metal shed is almost non-existent. Courtesy of galvanised steel, the metal is protected from the elements, preventing the formation of rust.

  • Very affordable - Metal sheds represent a cheaper option than the wooden alternative. So, if space is most important to you, then a metal shed portrays a sizable garden storage option which won’t break the bank.

Does this shed need to go on a base?

Though a base isn’t essential, we would always recommend getting a substantial base to go along with any garden shed purchase. For a metal shed, a solid concrete base represents the best option, as a hard-wearing base designed to support a great deal of weight.

Though, it is worth noting that one of the biggest advantages of metal sheds is that compared to wooden and plastic sheds, a foundation isn’t as important, due to the heavy-duty nature of their construction. Essentially, the larger a metal shed, the more likely it is to require a foundation, due to needing a strong base to provide support.

Will I need planning permission for this building?
If the building is shorter than 2.5m tall you should not require planning permission, (unless it’s more than 50% of your garden or to be put in your front garden). Planning permission rules can vary by area so we would strongly recommend checking your local council rules before ordering from us.
How long does it take to assemble this building?
We do not offer an installation service on any of our buildings, our buildings are designed & manufactured to be easy and simple to assemble. Using the assembly instruction included and with a team of just 2 people and a bit of DIY knowledge you can expect to have your BillyOh building up within a day, or as little as 3-4 hours with some of our smaller buildings.
What tools do I need to assemble my building?

Reduced weight per package helps to ensure that metal sheds are some of the easiest to construct. This certainly isn’t an assembly project which requires you to be an experienced builder in order to put everything together.

Simply follow the instructional leaflet provided with your metal shed. As a general rule, the only equipment required will come within the package, so no prep work is needed and no additional costs are incurred.

Can I track my order?

Your order can be tracked through the account section on our website or by contacting us directly. You will be contacted after your order by our helpful care team to arrange delivery of your building.

Our selection of metal sheds come in a huge range of base sizes, roof styles, and even colours. Metal sheds no longer have to be second-best, and with our selection of Lotus metal sheds, you'll be investing in a garden building that's both incredibly sturdy and weather resistant as well as low maintenance.

Wide Range of Security Options

Whether it's just for garden tools or larger garden equipment, a metal garden offers a premium in both storage and security. With less joins and a sturdy construction material, metal sheds are harder to break into. Windowless options all contribute to keeping prying eyes out and your tools in. The wide-opening double doors with lockable handles are also compatible with heavy-duty locks.

Metal Storage Sheds

And that's not all they offer! Double doors also allow much-needed natural light into your shed - perfect for use as a garage or garden workshop. At Garden Buildings Direct, our metal storage solutions are perfect for keeping larger items and equipment safe whilst in storage.

Sizes For All Gardens

Apex Roof Metal Sheds

As a roof type, apex roof metal sheds feature a dual-sloped roof that allows for excellent runoff - keeping your shed and its contents dry and safe. An apex metal shed also offers a more traditional outline.

Quality Galvanised Steel Construction

Made from hot-dipped galvanised steel panels, the Lotus Orion is both highly weather resistant (even in harsh British weather) and sturdy. The durable metal used for the galvanised steel cladding will stand up to harsh weather conditions and require less maintenance than wooden sheds. Steel sheds are rust resistant, corrosion-resistant, and fire retardant - all while needing minimal maintenance. And you can now get the Lotus Orion apex in a beautiful deep grey!

Steel Foundation Kit

This Lotus apex metal shed comes with a steel foundation kit included. This provides a solid base which ensures a strong foundation for long-lasting storage in your garden.

Concrete Base

And with this level base you can even use an anchor kit to attach it to a concrete base. Simply erect your Orion metal shed onto your prepared base and anchor it on for a super sturdy storage building.

Assembly & Planning Permission

With a overall product height and ridge height that falls under 'permitted development' you won't require planning permission so long as this shed isn't intended for permanent residential use, isn't larger than 50% of your garden, and isn't built past the front wall of your house.

As with all Lotus Sheds, we don't provide an installation service - but this is simply because they're so easy to build! Simply follow the comprehensive assembly instructions provided with your ranger kit to have your heavy-duty shed up in a matter of hours.
