I got my from a place in Huyton. Not a bad build, stood all those winds last year. Think it's 8 x 6 without windows. Set me back £200.
I'd visit a local place if i was you mo. You don't really know what you are getting online.
I changed all the screws on mine to bolts so scallys can't get in to easy. Also added another 2 locks to the top and bottom of the door.
Still had some litte shits have a go at it. Snapped some of the wood off the back of the shed but got a sheet of ply and covered the whole back part. Been there 5 years and only had that issue. Frame seems sold along with all the panels still.

Yeah. Dead easy to do too.
If some little badger pulls the panels off the shed, you have it lined on the inside so they can't get in.

Its bad when you have to 'ply line' your shed to stop people breaking in. I would hate to have to do that. Is it a bad area?
