Hi
I have a small front 'garden' (Basically a small bit of concreted over land outside my house) that I would quite like to put a bike storage shed on; my back garden has no side return y'see...
I am thinking of getting a couple of bike anchors bolted into the concrete, and putting a shelter with no floor over the top.
There are a few problems though:
1) There is a manhole cover right where I want to put the shed. As long as there is a way of accessing this (i.e. the shed itself can be unbolted from the ground and moved) it should be OK, right? (Thinking something like this http://www.trimetals.co.uk/product/metal-bike-storage/)
2) All the shelters I have seen seem to be hideously expensive. If the bikes are secured to very secure stands, I don't need a high security shed do I? Currently this project looks like it could cost about £700 by the time I get the anchors to lock the bikes to drilled in and everything else that goes with it.
Any help on how I can do this on the cheap would be appreciated
