4 Ways to Decorate Your Metal Garden Shed for Halloween
Your garden shed is more than just storage for bikes and tools. This Halloween, why not transform your Asgard metal shed into a spooktacular garden feature? Whether you're hosting a Halloween party or simply want to give trick-or-treaters a fright, these four decoration ideas will help you create a haunting outdoor display.
The History Behind Halloween Decorations
Did you know that homes and porches were originally decorated at Halloween to ward off the undead? It was believed that spooky decorations would stop ghouls and ghosts from entering homes on the night of All Hallows' Eve, the only night of the year when spirits could return to earth from the afterlife. Now that's a tradition worth keeping!
1. Window Stickers for Your Garden Shed
Window stickers are perfect for decorating metal sheds because they stick to smooth steel surfaces and remove cleanly when Halloween is over, leaving no damage to your secure storage.
We've decorated our Asgard Access Shed with bloody handprints on the doors and roof panels. Perhaps this sends a spine-tingling message from beyond the grave: keep your hands off our beloved bikes! Window stickers can be arranged individually around your bike storage or metal garden shed to create maximum impact.
Top tip: The smooth galvanised steel surface of Asgard sheds makes them ideal for temporary decorations that won't mark or damage your outdoor storage.
2. Cobwebs for a Creepy Garden Feature
Nothing says creepy quite like a cobweb-covered shed. Transform your metal garden shed into a haunted hideaway by draping fake cobwebs across the doors, roof, and sides of your secure storage unit.
Add some plastic spiders to complete the look (pretend ones, of course, because Asgard metal sheds are famously spider-proof thanks to our weatherproof design and tight-fitting construction). Your bike storage or tool shed will have an instant ghastly appearance that's sure to spook visitors.
3. Spooky Props on Your Metal Shed
Plastic spiders, skulls, and skeletal hands make brilliant props for outdoor storage decoration. Our Access unit's shallow sloped roof is the perfect platform for spine-chilling displays.
We placed a fearsome skull on top, nestled amongst terrifying cobwebs. Near the Access unit's double shrouded locking system, we positioned a skeletal hand appearing from the lock area. It's a ghoulish warning to any lurking zombies that might try to break into your secure bike storage!
Why it works: The robust steel construction of Asgard sheds provides plenty of sturdy surfaces for attaching props, and the Police Approved security features mean your decorations (and bikes) stay exactly where you put them.
4. Banners and Hanging Garlands
Spooky banners and hanging garlands add movement and atmosphere to your garden shed, especially when they're caught in the autumn breeze. These decorations create an eerie appearance that's visible from across the garden.
You can trap banners in the doors of your Asgard metal shed (our reinforced doors and 5-point locking system will hold them securely) or use strong outdoor tape to attach them to the galvanised steel panels. Use banners to wish trick-or-treaters a "Happy Halloween" or scare them away with gruesome skull designs.
Make Your Metal Shed the Star of Halloween
Your Asgard metal garden shed or bike storage unit is built to withstand British weather year-round, which means it can definitely handle a few Halloween decorations! The durable steel construction, weatherproof design, and secure features make it the perfect canvas for spooky seasonal displays.
Whether you own an Access unit for bike storage, a metal garden shed for tools, or one of our larger workshop models, these decoration ideas will help you create a Halloween display that's both frightening and fun.
