I am thinking about having a bike shed installed in my front garden, has anyone got anything good/bad to say about either the metal ones or the dulwichgreen.com shed with garden-on-the-roof types?...do they get targeted by robbers? and can they successfully break into them, any information gratefully received. Thank you!

Any determined burglar can break into a bike shed, though options are more restricted if it is in thr front garden. But then again, one could attack such a shed in the small hours.


People seem to suggest on the EDF that if you are going to secure a bike outside, it needs to be to a securely concreted purpose built metal loop (I don't remember the name, but search it on the EDF).

Hi


If you have your bike insured, it's worth checking the T&C's before you invest in a shed, you may find that most policies won't cover it. For what it's worth, putting your bike in a very visible place secured with locks that would require the use of power tools will be enough to put most bike thieves off. You wouldn't want to wake the neighbours would you?!

    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying. 
    • Hello, Does this lovely little panther have a name? & Is he neutered & microchipped?
    • Well I don’t approve for a shop doing the same food to open so near - just wrong in my opinion. Why not go to the village, Peckham - foot fall would be great in Peckham and certainly more multi  cultural than ED. Village has money but doubt foot fall would be as good as ED.  At least they could have gone to the stretch leading up to Peckham Rye or why not bottom of Barry Road?? Or even North Cross Road I for one, on principal won’t be going in.
    • Heh yeah haven't even bothered to remove the emdash. The OP is AI slop as well.
