Store your bikes or wheelie bins neatly out of sight with the Rackerman metal bike shed and wheelie bin store — a heavy-duty, dual-purpose outdoor storage unit built from 100% hot-dip galvanised steel. With a lift-up pent lid and wide double doors, it works equally well as secure garden bike storage or a tidy wheelie bin store, and won't rot like wood or crack like plastic.
Secure bike storage for 2–4 bikes
Keep bikes dry, locked and out of the way. The double doors open wide for easy wheel-in, wheel-out access with no lifting over a threshold, and the lockable design gives you secure outdoor bike storage that deters opportunist theft. The 7x4ft comfortably stores three to four bikes; the 6x4ft holds two.
Wheelie bin store for up to 3 bins
The same unit doubles as a smart wheelie bin storage solution. The 7x4ft holds up to three standard 240-litre UK wheelie bins side by side, hiding them from view and keeping lids down against wind and foxes. The lift-up pent lid gives easy top access to drop rubbish straight into the bins, while the front doors let you wheel them in and out on bin day. An ideal 3 wheelie bin store for front gardens and driveways.
Built from 100% hot-dip galvanised steel
Unlike cheaper powder-coated or painted stores, every panel is hot-dip galvanised throughout — the same corrosion protection used on structural steelwork — for genuine rust resistance at the cut edges and fixings, not just a surface coat. The leak-resistant pent roof sheds rainwater away from the doors and the tight-fitting construction keeps the weather out.
Sizes and honest capacity
- 6x4ft — 2 adult bikes, or 2 wheelie bins.
- 7x4ft (approx. 210 x 105 x 130cm external, W x D x H; door opening 75 x 120cm) — 3–4 bikes, or 3 standard 240L wheelie bins, or a mix of bikes, bins, mower and tools.
These are realistic figures. Adult bikes are larger than the child's bike sometimes shown in stock photos, so for three or more full-size adult bikes choose the 7x4ft.
Weatherproof and low-maintenance
Galvanised steel won't warp, rot or need annual treatment like a timber bin store, and won't go brittle in cold or UV like plastic. It's a fit-and-forget garden store built to last for years with no upkeep — ideal for UK weather.
Delivery and assembly
Free UK delivery, dispatched in 3–5 working days. The unit arrives flat-packed with all fixings and a floor/base included. Assembly is straightforward but detailed — set aside a couple of hours and, ideally, a second pair of hands, as there are a number of panels to bolt together. Once built, it's a solid, rigid structure.
