Good tool shed
Review by jon
Thanks to Asgard, this is a great garden shed - intimidating to look at before you build it , and a couple of hours in the making, but well worth it in the end. We have adapted ours and added a waterfeed - so we can use our pressure washer any time we want.

Thanks for your Tool Shed review! It's great to see our products in use, particularly in this type of setting - and you are correct, once we deliver and you are left with the best part of a tonne of metal, it can be daunting - The secret is getting a couple of mates to help and a flat, level base and a power driver - its then a breeze to do. The key is the flat base!Andy
Excellent Garden Shed
Review by Karen
I am really happy with this shed, great size, and maintenance-free. It was fairly easy to put up. So, glad I won't have to paint it ever and it looks amazing.

Great, thanks for taking the time to review your Asgard Flexistore, all metal garden shed. The Flexistore is a great, versatile shed - perfect for every size of garden - great to hear the shed assembly went well, and yes the lack of annual repaints is a great benefit!Andy Heath
Very Pleased - but watch the silicone sealing!
Review by David Arrowsmith
Purchased this to replace my 13 year old wooden shed, its now a new 5x11 shed in an awkward area down the side of me house. I had a concrete base put down which helped, you certainly do need a level surface or I would imagine you may have problems putting it together.
Delivery was great, driver very helpful and polite, laid everything out well, all panels are marked with stickers anyway for ease of assembly. Some of the panels are thin in the middle, so care is needed when storing or stacking them so they do not crease.
Instructions were good, everything was there, you will need help to at least get a corner up and secured, its then possible to put the rest together yourself if your tall enough!.
Went together OK, a few stubborn screws, you will need a normal screwdriver as well as power screwdriver due to the angles your working at.
Its a great shed, I had the package which included the floor, I would recommend you at least buy the floor as I cannot imagine it being without it, hooks shelves etc all went in fine.
Its a great shed, you pay for what you get, and this is excellent, looks great and feels secure. Only thing to watch is when you silicone the roof during assembly, I put plenty in (you will need another tube of sealant in addition to the supplied tube) but my roof leaked during the first period of rain, only dripping but still leaked. So I ended up also sealing it from the outside by leaning over the roof on a ladder and sealing it that way, its now watertight!.
I a really pleased with it, plenty of space, well made and best of all, its made in Britain!!

Great shed. Loads of space still to fill.
Review by James
When I first heard about Asgard from a good from of mine, who'd paid over a grand for his shed, I baulked at the idea of paying that much just to store my [much beloved] bikes in. But reading reviews and thinking it over for a along while I took plunge on this shed and do not regret doing so at all. the 5x11 Flexistore shed easily holds two bikes, golf clubs, garden furniture equipment, numerous tool boxes, and a bike travel bag ... with east. Still plenty of room to move around inside. You will need internal lighting fitted as it is rich black at night (so much so you can see the far end when stood at the open door).
Having this shed has freed up space in my new home, which was a long term aim after moving in last year.
A few things regarding the construction: you will need a caulk gun to apply the sealant. There [appears to be] no mention of this in the instructions which delayed our my (friend and I) plan to build to completion in one go, so instead had to build over two 2 1/2 stints over 10 days apart. Also, hardest parts to fit together were first vertical sections (one of the rear corners) and the last roof piece (watch your fingers on this part as I got mine caught). We needed to use the spacers towards the end of the build. May be useful for Asgard to provide a few more of these as we lost some under the shed after my friend got a bit to exuberant pushing them under. Step numbering on printed instructions provided are odd (go from 11, 12 to 25, 26, 27). I have just checked the downloadable version is identical but with correct numbers).
a number of the self tapping screws just not wanting to fit into the pre-drilled hole with out hot of coercion. This was more prevalent along some of the base-to-wall joins the final roof part.
Still need to put a floor in and drill the ground screws in. Not sure if this would have bene better at start of build (suggested by another reviewer) or at end as the instructions suggest,
All in all, very pleased.

Review by Norman Ironside
My first Asgard is the Gladiator which has been the best shed I have ever owned.
My second is the Flexistore and great value.
I bought a large Gladiator to secure expensive garden equipment and when my son’s diy car repair kit overflowed the garage, I bought the Flexistore.
This is a cheaper shed,in price ,but inspires as much confidence as the Gladiator because it is tough and secure.
I paid for both sheds to be erected and it was worth every penny.
Asgard builds sheds that do what Asgard say they do.
My Gladiator is 4/5 years old and looks like new. The Flexistore looks as if it will be the same.
Brilliant!

Great shed. Superb quality and easy to assemble
Review by leonard
This is my 3rd Asgard shed! A superb, secure, easy to assemble shed. Bought with all the interior extras which I haven't fitted yet as on holiday.
I'd suggest assembling it with the help of a tolerant friend and definitely an electric rechargeable screwdriver!
The only problem I have is my own fault... Its approx 15 inches too long for the available space. Using it without the centre section for now and looking at options. I may even consider cutting a part out of the middle section.
Plan to discuss with Asgard when back in UK in a few days time.
No hesitation in recommending this shed!

High quality shed
Review by Zed
I had my Asgard shed delivered and installed in October 2016. I waited four months to leave a review as I wanted to see how it would handle the wet and windy weather we've been having. In short, it's a high quality piece of kit. I can't really fault it, other than noticing some slight condensation inside the shed on cold mornings. Not a big deal for me. A major plus point is not having to treat the exterior. I installed a trellis on mine and intend to grow a Clematis montana over it so that it blends in with the garden.
Great shed , a couple of minor issues
Review by Mark
Overall a great shed and I am very pleased. Well made and nice a sturdy.
However there was a problem with an incorrect part being delivered and the installation was poorly organised. Also the tool rail only fits in one location, and that is at the back of the shed. The least useful place for it!
As I say pretty small niggles for a well made and good value shed.

amazing shed. great value for money
Review by caravanstorage
I bought this in a sale, found a discount code. I was a little disappointed at the initial length till delivery, however was brought forward a week, and then a few additional days. Excellent communication throughout. The delivery men were very helpful, efficient, and offered useful advice. The shed was very weighty, was soon put together. Excellent quality and smart looking. Great locking system, very secure! Well worth the money and the weight. With a 10 year warranty, you can't go wrong!
Just about all you could want in high quality shed
Review by Alf
Decided on this shed after many years of treating and re-treating wooden sheds. Replacing the roof felt etc.. I liked the look of this shed and whilst certainly not cheap. When you think of the overall package, such as the ease of ordering, excellent delivery service and build quality. You can only really give 5 stars as a rating. The only issues we had when putting it all together, was with a number of the self tapping screws just not wanting to fit into the pre-drilled holes. I think the trouble caused by these, probably meant that completion took at least an hour longer. But once it is all up it is superb. One piece of advice though. Do ensure the base is both level and secure before putting the shed up. That sorted and a powered screwdriver in hand and you won't be disappointed.
