“I only have a wooden garage, so I am always concerned about breakins.  These days we don’t have the money to upgrade the garage so this was ideal for us.  Very strong and really heavy – Bolting down to the floor is an excellent idea”. John

A pick resistant locking mechanism, strong locking system and reinforced components all help to offer the best security for tools.

Are you getting a new bike for Christmas? Keep it safe.

Posted on December 20, 2012 by andyheath

“Bicycles can be some of the easiest vehicles for thieves and vandals to target. You can protect yourself from becoming a victim by following some simple steps.

Get a good bike lock (D locks or combination locks are best. Look for ‘Sold Secure Ltd’ approved locks, or ask for a recommendation at a bike shop)

Lock your bike to something secure, e.g. a bike rack or a lamppost. If there are no bike racks, contact your local council to ask if they can put some in. Always lock your bicycle, even if you are only leaving it for a couple of minutes

Make the lock and bike difficult to manoeuvre when parked – keep the lock away from the ground and keep the gap between the bike and lock small

Lock up removable parts (e.g. wheels) and take light fittings with you.

Have your bike’s frame security-marked or engraved.

Take out insurance, either by extending your home contents insurance or through a separate policy. Cycling organisations and bike shops may offer specialist cover.

Record and register your bike – register your bicycle model, make and frame number. Contact your local police station for further advice.

new christmas bike???

Take a clear colour photograph of your bike and make a written record of its description, including any unique features.

Keep your bike in a secure garage or shed and keep the door locked.

Keep it out of public view.

Avoid isolated places – leave your bike where a potential thief can be seen”

Asgard Bike Storage – The Best in Insurance Approved Bike Security

For the ultimate cyclists how about the Asgard Bike Maintenance Store???  Store 5 bikes or more in a tough, reinforced, all metal shed.  The bike maintenance shed comes with a 5 point locking system, a pick resistance lock.  This unit is big enough for a maintenance stand, so you can keep your bike not only safe and dry but in tip top condition in no matter what the weather throws at you.

Save your motorbike from theft this winter

Posted on November 6, 2012 by tarahamilton

Motorbike theft is a problem that doesn’t simply go away just because the weather is colder. Thieves don’t mind braving the icy chill and a bit of wind or rain. In fact with the cloak of darkness arriving earlier and earlier in the day, thieves have more opportunities to make off with goods.  For the experienced thief, they can get away with a motorcycle in around 18 seconds and in winter your motorbike is at just as much risk.

Keep your motorcycle protected

If you are one of the many people that put their motorbikes to bed for the winter, make sure it is secure. With your bike being locked away in the same place for months, it can become a target for theft. This is particularly true if your motorbike is stored in public view. If a thief has walked past your bike for a few days in a row and has seen it sat in the same place, they know it’s likely to be there the next day and the next day and it’s only a matter of time before they take it for themselves.

Don’t leave yourself at risk of theft.  Motorbike storage is important, keep your motorbike stored out of sight in a garage or shed. If a thief doesn’t know it’s there, they won’t be able to steal it. Winter motorbike covers are more of an attraction to theft rather than a deterrent, as these are relatively easy to remove and highlight that your motorbike is underneath.

If you don’t have a secure place to store your motorcycle, now is the time to invest in motorbike storage. Asgard has a range of highly secure motorbike storage unit, which happen to be the only Locksmiths Association Approved motorcycle storage units in the UK. Made from strong weatherproof steel, these storage units are extremely robust and have been designed to keep your motorbike safe.

Secure your motorbike

“If security is an issue, this is the one..I am converted.”Ride Magazine

These motorcycle garages have been fitted with a tough five point locking system and feature reinforced bolts, hinges and panels for added security.  Even if a thief wants to find out what is inside, they will most certainly struggle.  Added features such as a ventilated side panel, access ramp and electric mounting plate make this these units the perfect home for any motorbike.

The benefits of outdoor storage

Posted on October 28, 2012 by tarahamilton

If you are considering outdoor storage for your home, whether it be cycle storage, a garden shed, or something for general storage use,  there are many benefits of having outdoor storage at your home.

Provides more space

One of the best benefits of an outdoor storage unit is that it frees up much needed space in your home. Depending on the size and purpose of the unit, you can store vast amounts of items inside. How many items do you have in your house that you rarely use? If you are considering outdoor storage for general items, you will be surprised at how quickly you can fill it. Your home will become yours again, it will feel bigger and will no longer be a slave to clutter.

Minimise the clutter in your home

Keeps your home clean

If you are thinking of purchasing a dedicated storage for items such as your bike, this can help to keep unnecessary dirt and mud out of your home. Dragging muddy bikes through the house is not an ideal situation and can cause added mess, dirt and hassle. Cycle storage will reduce this hassle considerably, by keeping everything outside and away from the home. Even if you don’t have a lot of room, there are lots of sizes available to choose from.

Organises your stuff

Outdoor storage offers you a way of organising surplus items that don’t need to be stored in the home such as children’s toys, which can double before you know it. Dedicated storage for items such as bikes, not only provide a place to keep your bike, but also all the accessories associated with it. With storage like this, finding specific items will be easier as items will be under one roof, rather than just somewhere in your house!

A retreat

Depending on the size of your storage unit, this can be used as a quick retreat from the hectic home. As men have done for years with sheds, in a large storage unit you can spend a long time tinkering and getting some much needed space and alone time. This is particularly the case if using the unit as a motorbike garage, garden shed, or as a workshop.

Asgard storage for all needs

A wide range of metal storage units are available from Asgard. All made from strong weatherproof steel, these sheds come in a variety of sizes and are designed for various purposes. With outdoor storage for fishing equipment, Ski’s, space saving bike storage, garden sheds and more, regardless of its purpose there is an outdoor storage unit for you. Visit the Asgard website to see the full range.

Secure garden storage for a small garden

Posted on October 13, 2012 by tarahamilton

If you have a compact garden but still need an outdoor storage facility, your options can sometimes be quite limited. Garden sheds and storage units can look quite dominating in a smaller garden and in small spaces it’s hard for your shed not to become the main focal point. You want something small and sleek, but still strong and secure. Not sure where to look? Asgard has a solution. With a wide variety of high quality garden sheds available, there is something to suit all garden sizes, without compromising on quality.

Compact garden sheds

Finding compact sheds that are pleasing on the eye and still functional, can be a tall task.

Both of these sheds are made from strong weatherproof steel, as are all Asgard steel sheds and are packed full of features. These metal sheds are supplied with a 10 year warranty; these are great value for money products.

Hooks are available to purchase with this shed to expand storage options and the storage unit boasts large double door access, for easy manoeuvring of items.
