All three models (940, 950 and 960) are available from My Secure Garden. Protect-a-Bike has achieved Police Preferred Specification status from Secured by Design (SBD), the official UK police security initiative, and has been tested and certified by the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) and awarded the LPS1175 Security Rating B3 (SR2) for its high security features and its strength and resistance to break-in attacks.

The unit comes supplied with a heavy-duty ground anchor (Sold Secure Gold rated) and a 1.5m security chain with padlock (both Thatcham Approved) for securing your motorcycle or outdoor machinery inside the garage. It also features a stainless-steel hasp and padlock on the front doors (in addition to the standard door bolting system) and a battery-operated PIR alarm. All external bolts are fitted with lock nuts to prevent panels from being removed from the outside. The Protect-a-Bike 950 garage features wide double doors, ensuring easy access, and sufficient width to walk your motorcycle straight inside. The doors can be placed at either end of the garage, depending upon where you choose to site the unit. Protect-a-Bike has a traditional pent roof design and ventilation slots in the front fascia above the doors which maintain airflow inside and minimise condensation without compromising security.

The recommended base for Protect-a-Bike 950 a solid concrete slab (ideally 310cm (10’) x 190cm (6’5”) and at least 100mm thick) laid on a flat gravel bed, with polythene sheeting placed under or on top of the concrete to help prevent moisture rising inside and causing condensation. Solid concrete paving slabs laid on a flat gravel bed or concrete “point” foundations can also provide an effective basing solution. ‘Spirafix’ metal ground anchors are recommended if locating the shed directly onto grass. The unit is supplied with “Thunderbolt” fasteners for bolting the shed down securely into the concrete base or slabs.
