Keep a narrow bike store orderly
Inside a seven by three footprint keeps bikes together without giving up much garden width. Wooden apex-roofed buildings use overlap or shiplap cladding. Measure handlebars, pedals and the door route, then leave a straight line for rolling bikes in and out. Prepare the base before delivery and think about locks early. For extra security ideas, read the shed security guide.
We earn a commission from the retailer if you buy through links on this page, at no extra cost to you. It never affects which bike stores we show or how we compare them. Prices were checked on 7 November 2026 and may have changed, so check the retailer before you buy.
Build one yourself instead?
Buying ready-made is about £1,133 cheaper than the materials to build it yourself. Factory-made buildings use lighter framing and thinner boards than a self-build, so building your own makes sense if you want it heavier-duty or a custom size.
The self-build figure uses our standard specification for this type of building, priced from a full materials list: framing, floor, cladding, roof, door and fixings. It excludes tools and your time.
Price a 7 x 3 ft bike store in the builderThe base you will need
A 7 x 3 ft bike store needs a firm, level base at least 7 x 3 ft. Most guarantees depend on it. A concrete slab or paving lasts longest. A plastic grid filled with gravel is quicker, drains well and needs no concrete.

Planning permission and Building Regulations
- Most garden buildings do not need planning permission in England and Wales if they are behind the front of the house and, with any other outbuildings, cover no more than half the garden.
- Within 2 m of a boundary the whole building, base included, must be no taller than 2.5 m. Further away, the limit is 4 m for an apex roof or 3 m for other roofs, and the eaves must stay under 2.5 m. Check the height on the product page before you order.
- At about 2 m², a bike store this size is exempt from Building Regulations as long as nobody sleeps in it.
