    Another where-is thread. My wife is hot to trot to get a shed for the garden. I've only seen the ones at B&Q and Woodies but none of them are the best size. Really looking for something like above (4' wide x 2-3' deep x 6' tall).

    Seriously though, have you tried Steeltech on the Headford Road.

    Those plastic shed/cheap argos sheds are pure muck..............get a good decent strong one from a local co like this - it'd outlive you....

    Another +1 for SteelTech. The B&Q type ones are rubbish and way overpriced.

    Guys, I called StellTech but they won't do anything that small. In a semi-d with small garden so quite specific as to what will fit my dimensions.

    Argos actually had a few options but they are expensive. There was one at B&Q that was 6'wide....maybe I could do a job on it and shorten it to 4'.

    Any other ideas other than my bad one above? :D

    Does it have to be that high?
    B&Q does garden storage chests for 30E
    Won't fit a mower but pretty much everything else.

    Well the space I have is about 130cm until I hit a still growing tree. A low storage unit like that might squeeze behind the tree but the branches will interfere with opening the top. Could work... that's out plan B (plus it's cheap)

    There's a place that does wooden sheds not far out on the Tuam Rd (next to Babyworld) and also one in Kilcolgan.

    Are your priorities cost,size,looks,security,weatherproof ? (you could get some plastic sheeting and rob some pallets someplace !!)

    I sorta think anything custom is going to be more than the €100 B&Q shed. I could do a job on it, mess up, get a second one, do a job on it and it would still be cheaper than the cheapest shed from a custom lot. Don't you think?

    Priorities are cost, size, weatherproof.. doesn't have t be pretty or secure. Just going to be garden junk in it.
