• Massive dredge but how did the thieves get in to a trimetals shed?

    Am looking at a bike shed, Asgard look the most secure but in the space I have it's hard to see how they'd fit because of the doors opening outwards....

  • Massive dredge but how did the thieves get in to a trimetals shed?

    They tried to undo some of the bolts on the top hinge and lever things open (see photo).

    They only really managed to undo one bolt and, even then, the bikes inside were secured with big chains. It was also screwed down to the ground it was standing on and with the fence behind there was no space to get in that way even if they had levered it all apart.

    I put it all back together and then drilled out all of the allen key bolt heads, plus I put a dob of superglue on each bolt/thread on the inside to make sure they couldn't be undone without lots of force (and having access to the inside).

  • That's really helpful, cheers! I'm in two minds about whether I'm better off with one of these or an Asgard - Asgard seem slightly stronger but are more awkward and it'll be in limited space. Not sure how easy it'll be to get a ground anchor in but will try based on your story!

    Would your break-in put you off buying again / recommending or did you think fair enough?
