1. A galvanised treatment like the one used on this shed is one our experts are happy to say is one of the best around.
Below is a brief overview of how some of the key points of this shed fairs across the market.
Treatment/Guarantee
The galvanised treatment process used here is the best type of treatment out of 2 [3] types we’ve identified on same-size sheds that you’ll see getting used on 13% [4] (547 of 4,360) of all sheds analysed, as well as being used on 30% [5] (129 of 436) of the top 10% of sheds. While you’ll find that the Expert Score of this shed is 1 point lower than the average for galvanised 7′ x 9’s (92 vs the average of 93 [6]), you can be sure it’s not due to the treatment as this one of the highest scoring treatments found on 7′ x 9′ sheds. You’ll also find the galvanised treatment showing up on 5% of 7′ x 9′ sheds (16 in total).
On a metal shed, the guarantee that the manufacturer offers is usually a very good indicator of the quality of the building. The longer the guarantee the more the manufacturer believes in the quality of the building they have produced. Typically we see manufacturer guarantees for metal Sheds ranging from zero right up to a 30 years guarantee.
This metal shed comes with a 10 years guarantee. Most metal shed come with a 10 years guarantee (36.47% of them) [7].
For this particular brand (Asgard) they offer 12 [8] different types of guarantees on their metal sheds, with the 10 years guarantee on this being the only they offer. The 10 years guarantee is found on 100.00% of Asgard metal sheds [9]. It is great that this shed was given one of the highest guarantees offered by the brand, and this shows the manufacturer has a lot of faith in the overall quality of this part of their product range.
When looking at comparable 7′ x 9′ metal sheds (we found 295 of them) the most popular guarantee length offered by manufacturers was 10 years [10]. 45.76% came with a missing guarantee, 36.61% came with a 10 year guarantee, 11.53% came with a 15 year guarantee, 2.37% came with a 1 year guarantee, 1.69% came with a 20 year guarantee, 0.68% came with a 3 year guarantee, 0.68% came with a 30 year guarantee, 0.34% came with a 12 year guarantee, 0.34% came with a lifetime guarantee and 0.00% came with a limited lifetime guarantee.

1. Galvanised: Galvanising steel or Zinc Galvanised steel as it is sometimes called refers to the process where steel is immersed into molten zinc. This is where a series of zinc-iron alloy forms a series layers via a metallurgical reaction between the iron and zinc, providing a robust coating which is an integral part of the steel.
Galvanised steel is among the most corrosion resistant due to its sacrificial protection and self-repairing properties. According to the Galvanizers Association they say “Hot dip galvanising offers coverage both externally and internally within hollow sections, it self-repairs when damaged, sacrifices itself to protect the base metal, is environmentally sustainable, has good impact and abrasion-resistance and a maintenance-free life of 50 years or more. Galvanised steel is widely used in applications where corrosion protection is needed and can be identified by the crystallised pattern on the surface (often called a ‘spangle’).” ↩
2. Steel: Is the “world’s most important engineering and construction material” according to the World Steel Accosiation. When it comes to garden structure steel is often a very strong and durable metal, although if it is untreated then it is prone to rust and corrosion. Steel is an alloy of iron mixed with less than 2% carbon and 1% manganese and small amounts of silicon, phosphorus, sulphur and oxygen. When steel comes into contact with water and oxygen there is a chemical reaction and the steel begins to revert to its original form – iron oxide (that’s Rust to the layperson). Steel must be coated in a protective layer to stop this reaction, for most garden applications this consists of powder coating or the more stable and long lasting use of galvanising the steel first. ↩
