Most buyers start at 3m. It swallows a mower, hand tools, kit bags or a tradesman’s running stock, and does it without committing a full container’s worth of ground. What you are looking at is the coated variant: galvanising goes on first, the colour goes over the top, so the corrosion barrier sits underneath the paint instead of standing in for it. That distinction is the entire case for paying more than the bare galvanised unit costs.

Dimensions and weights

  • External 2.95 × 2.14 × 2.09 m (9 ft 8 in × 7 ft 0 in × 6 ft 10 in)
  • Internal 2.80 × 2.07 × 2.00 m (9 ft 2 in × 6 ft 9 in × 6 ft 7 in)
  • Door opening 1.25 × 1.80 m (4 ft 1 in × 5 ft 11 in)
  • Weight flat-packed 351 kg (774 lb)
  • Heaviest single part when demounted 120 kg (265 lb)

Why the weights matter more than the size

Flat-packed it weighs 351 kg and no single part exceeds 120 kg. That is the specification that decides where this store can go. Two people can carry the panels to the build position and bolt them together with nothing more than a socket set. No crane is needed, no forklift, and no delivery vehicle able to reach the spot. Because each panel clears an ordinary door frame, the finished store can end up round the back of a building, indoors, or in a yard that no vehicle can enter.

Specification

  • Colour powder coat over a fully galvanised body
  • Assembled with a socket set alone: no crane, no forklift, no specialist tools
  • Each panel clears a standard door frame
  • Lifting eyes let the erected store be craned with its contents still inside
  • Twin locking system included as standard
  • Joins to further units, side by side or end to end
  • Folds flat again once it is no longer in use
  • Twelve months’ cover on the unit as supplied new

Where the finish earns its keep

A coated store looks intended rather than left behind, which matters in a school playground, hotel grounds, a village hall car park or any customer-facing yard. Where nobody sees it, the plain galvanised version of this 3m store does the identical job for less. Once built, the lifting eyes let the whole store be craned with its contents still in place, so moving it later needs no unpacking.

Ordering and delivery

UK delivery is free and includes Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, Jersey and Guernsey. No VAT is added at checkout, so the price on this page is the total payable. Because the store travels flat rather than as a rigid box, there is no crane or HIAB to book; if you need the pallet put somewhere particular, that is agreed in writing before delivery. Statutory rights apply as normal: 14 days to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, and a separate 30-day right to reject faulty goods under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

Going larger

An extra metre in the identical finish is the 4m x 2.1m powder coated flat packed store. Put two 3m units together and you have a 3m x 4.2m powder coated side linked bundle. The flat pack category holds every size we carry, and it is worth reading our delivery information before you settle on a date.
