What use for your garden shed?

This is step number one in choosing your garden shed.

Why do you want to invest in a garden shed.

Whether for aesthetic use but also practical, owning a garden shed can fulfill many different tasks:

  • Storage

Most common use, your garden shed will represent more or less storage space according to your desires and the objects you want to store.

Bicycles, barbecue, swimming pool accessories, treadmills or even garden furniture, make room in your interior by storing your bulky items in your garden shed.


  • Workshop

Handyman, gardener, fisherman or hunter, take advantage of the ideal space with a workbench and storage areas for your various tools or materials.

Enough to live off your passion without cluttering up your interior space.

  • Animal shelter

Do you like animals but don't have the space to house them?

Your garden shed can offer you sufficient space to provide an ideal setting for your animals.

Chicken coop, kennel or space reserved for your cat, spoil your animals by offering them a place just for them.


  • Additional room or outbuilding

If you choose a large enough area for your garden shed, you can get an additional room at a lower cost.

Dry toilets, games room, artist's studio, everything is done to make your home even more spacious.

But you can also use it as an outbuilding and thus turn it into a teenage bedroom or even an office to work in peace.


The use of your garden shed will determine the choice of the other main characteristics:

  • Height and area

  • The main material

  • the types of doors, windows etc.


What size should you choose for your garden shed?

Here are the different configurations according to your Trigano Store area

  • Less than 5m²:

This area is ideal for using your garden shed as a storage area for equipment, bikes, mower or even a barbecue for the summer.


  • Between 5 and 12m²:

In addition to storing small volumes, you can also accommodate a work area as for a painting or gardening workshop.

You will have the necessary space to set up an office there, for example.

  • Between 12 and 20m²:

The area is large enough to store small motor vehicles such as a mower.

You can also make a bedroom or even a large playroom for your children.

  • Beyond 20m²:

It is no longer a garden shed but a garage or an outbuilding depending on your use.

The building permit is compulsory.


What material to choose for your garden shed?

  • Wooden garden shed:

Wooden garden sheds are the most popular Trigano Store

The most popular are wooden garden sheds.

Despite their more expensive costs, wood allows a much more substantial aestheticism and lifespan.

Thanks to the robustness of the walls, you can fit out your garden shed more easily than with other materials.

In terms of insulation, wood offers the best performance.

Another positive point, the assembly of wooden shelters is rather simple despite certain difficulties at the level of the openings.


  • Metal shelter:

Cheaper than wood, the metal garden shed is a perfect Trigano Store alternative

Metal offers many advantages for garden sheds.

Lightweight, resistant, durable, maintenance-free and at a cheaper price than wood, the metal garden shed represents a perfect alternative despite its uncomfortable aestheticism.

Another defect, the metal offers no thermal insulation.

The assembly of the shed could prove to be long for the apprentice handymen, which is why it is better to plan a whole day to assemble your garden shed.


  • Resin / PVC shelter:

Aesthetic and practical, fall for the Trigano Store resin / PVC garden shed

Unlike metal shelters, those in resin or PVC represent a more attractive aesthetic and will enhance your garden.

Resistant and easy to maintain,

resin or PVC shelters

are nonetheless not repairable and the installation of hooks on the walls is not possible.

At the assembly level, the assembly is done mainly by panels which greatly facilitates the installation of your garden shed.
