The sheds are going for 999 at present, any ?? just ask.

The Gorilla Lock is an expensive 300 ? both of them together make a great combo, if you use your bike daily and it's a relativly standard bike.

A ground anchor with Almax aswell would be prudent in some eyes and overkill in others, depending on bike.

My Bro backs his van upto the shed door which is another meassure.

This great setup can move with you easily, the shed goes up in an hour or two, needs NO planning permission. The wooden floor lifts up so you can anchor in and or install the gorilla.

Idea Thumbs Up Smile

In most situations no, but will in some.

Oh and hope you're not spamming on behalf of Gorilla products? Heard some people thought they were coming on to BCF and doing that recently Wink.

Yes, planning permission may be required depending on which Nazis you live near or come under.

Great combination that will last years so good price in the long run.

If it's good i'll promote it, like the Coventry Ramp And Wrench outfit that has just started up.

Thought i'd new thread the both items, as opposed to it being lost within the spamclamp thread. Mr. Green

Please note that while I joke about the Spam, I think it's well enough known that covdude doesn't work for this company etc.

It rather looks like your shed actually needs a tax disc!

Is there a road to the front of your house?
If there isn't, it definitely needs planning permission, where ever you are.

Might stand up for a short period against small hand tools, but getting those doors open isn't going to be a huge issue. If they have a vehicle, just attach some rope to the door and vehicle and pull it open. The lack of space should frustrate their bolt cropping attempts.

As for the clamp thing, the jaws look quite flimsy, so it would be interesting to know how they stand up to croppers or a tool with a long breakers bar attached. Or a sedge hammer.

Certainly too many bikes on driveways to make them go for one locked up and alarmed in one of these.

It's by no means perfect, but anyone considering a shed may well bring this setup into consideration.

Or it will make them think that whatever is inside is valuable enough, and hence worth nicking, that you have gone out and bought a high security shed! It could be a motorbike, or a massive stack of snap on tools ect, they don't know. It's quite possible then, that your shed choice will actually encourage them to break in!

IMO a much better method is the sleeper method. A solid garage made of bricks or blocks, but dressed up to look like worthless junk. Concrete blocks would probably be cheaper too!

He has a massive brick shed, but until a couple of peeps die, he has to accomodate them. Laughing

If you have a 7 k bike est, then rather in the shed than just out front under a cover.

It's up for peeps to decide if it's worth the effort / cash etc ..

Certainly works for my bro, and had he known about the Gorilla he would of got one aswell ... Thumbs Up

Yea, I think this is good..if you own a bike that is worth the expense.

I don't btw, (I do love my new bike though Wink ) but I'm fortunate enough to have a back garden with NO ROAD ACCESS on any side, cept the front which is through a locked gate so this would go in there if I ever bought one.

It's an added deterrent for sure but also a red rag to a bull if the local chavs think there is a kick arse bike in there and they will know, you can bet your arse on that!

As you say, better than a cover on the drive though.
