Sizes
(In cm. Exterior dimensions incl. roof overhang)
Door opening: 135 x 170 cm (W x H)
Thanks to the low depth, model sizes 2A and 4A are particularly suitable for attachment to a house or garage wall.
Two extra mounting brackets are included in the delivery for installing the shed directly onto the wall.
From the shed sizes 2A to 7 the double door can be also installed off-centre. For shed sizes 4, 5, 6 and 7 doors can also be installed in the side wall.
Special sizes
For Garden Sheds of width 244 cm & 316 cm respectively, connecting modules are available which allow two sheds to be joined in length to form one large shed.
In this photo two garden sheds size 7 have been connected - the newly created shed has a length of six meters. In this way the garden shed "Europa" can be converted to make the ideal garage for a large number of bicycles, your lawn tractor, car trailer and a much, much more! A garden shed which has been converted normally has one double wing door.
This can be increased by adding an extra double door or an extra wide door (see photo on the right).
Technical details for special sizes
![[Translate to English:] Bodenplatten](https://www.biohort.com/fileadmin/_processed_/csm_7-7_Giebel_und_Boden_ba29eb76c6.jpg)
The floor panels (see accessories) can be used in the connected sheds without any additional sill or threshold. Depending on the shed size, the floor will consist of a specific number of panels, these can be laid out end-to-end (joined by flat connecting rails). In this way, the entire floor of the metal shed can be traversed without obstacle and there are no hazardous obstructions which could trip you up.
![[Translate to English:] Giebel innen](https://www.biohort.com/fileadmin/_processed_/csm_7-7_Giebel_innen_bbb8137a0d.jpg)
Due to constructional reasons the gable at the connecting point of both sheds must be retained.
Please note that the clearance height at this point is only 171 cm!
The joint in the side walls of the two sheds is covered by a galvanized rail. This is ‘invisible’ when seen from outside - the side wall looks as if it were constructed from one continuous surface.

The silicon sealant is used to seal the contact surface of the bottom of the profiles and top of foundation.
To apply the sealant proceed as follows: after mounting lift the shed up about 5 cm. Set a wooden wedge under each of the 4 corners and apply a generous bead of sealant under the bottom profiles. Remove the wooden wedges, lower the shed onto the sealant and secure it to the foundation.
The adhering and sealing surfaces must be absolutely clean and dry.
Please make sure that the drainage holes in the profiles are not filled with sealant.
Due to their size and weight, we recommend that the packages are transported by at least two people. Please notice that the forwarding agent is only responsible for kerb-side delivery and is not obliged to carry the packages into your house or garden.
Packaging
Our products are intended for do-it-yourself-assembly and are packed as individual components. Depending on the product ordered, these components are packed separately in either one or more corrugated cardboard cartons, which are clearly marked on the outside. Wooden battens and plastic matting is used to provide additional protection for Fragile or breakable parts. The disposal of the packaging material is the responsibility of the customer.
Depending on the sizes, all packages are provided with handles or grips to facilitate their transport. We recommend the packages to be handled by at least two people.
Depending on the product, one package can weigh up to 73 kg.
In this case, please make sure that you store or keep the packages in a dry place.
Foundation
- The simplest solution is to install your Garden Shed or Equipment Locker directly on to a Biohort Floor Frame (without any extra foundations – cross section 40 x 40 mm) and secure this with the ground anchors provided. The space inside the Floor Frame can then be filled out with the optional Alu-Floor panels or with paving slabs.
- An effective and economical solution can be achieved by laying paving slabs (40 x 40 cm or 50 x 50 cm) in a gravel-bed. Paving slabs are commonly available in a variety of colours and finishes from almost every Home worker and DIY market. Even when due care is taken to ensure that the paving slabs are firmly and evenly placed in the gravel, we would still recommend the use of a Biohort Floor Frame to ensure stability.
- A reinforced concrete foundation is without doubt the best solution. Even with this type of foundation you must take measures to ensure that no water can enter the garden shed from ground level. A shouldered foundation with a step of 2 cm x 7 cm running around the circumference is the ideal solution.
- Another useful alternative to ensure secure, storm-proof erection of the Garden Shed on soft and uneven ground is to combine the Biohort Floor Frame with a point foundation. The foundation points should be positioned at each of the four corners of the shed and have a minimum size of 30 x 30 cm. The excavation should be of an adequate depth to ensure protection against frost. The shed along with the Floor Frame should be firmly attached with the mounting hardware supplied - 2 times at each of the four foundation points.

Storm-proof anchoring must be ensured during erection. Local weather conditions must be taken into account. The mounting hardware (screws and dowels or ground anchors) are included in the delivery. If the garden shed is positioned, without a concrete foundation on frosty or soft or uneven ground – we strongly recommend the use of a Biohort-Floor Frame.
We highly recommend the use of a Biohort floor frame for all types of foundations, except in the case of a concrete foundation with step.

The basic requirement is a flat, horizontal building site!
Open the package in accordance with the instructions.
Please protect the sheet metal parts from scratches.
Wear gloves during installation - parts may have sharp edges.
Sealant refers to silicone- resp. butyl-beading materials, which are suitable for outdoor use. It is important that the sealant does not include acetic acid. Suitable products are available in the building trade.
The silicon sealant is used to seal the contact surface of the bottom of the profiles and top of foundation.
To apply the sealant proceed as follows: after mounting lift the shed up about 5 cm. Set a wooden wedge under each of the 4 corners and apply a generous bead of sealant under the bottom profiles. Remove the wooden wedges, lower the shed onto the sealant and secure it to the foundation.
The adhering and sealing surfaces must be absolutely clean and dry.
Please make sure that the drainage holes in the profiles are not filled with sealant.
A flat, horizontal construction site is absolutely essential for positioning the shed!
Safety
The roof of our garden sheds is extremely sturdy and can withstand snow loads of up to 150 kg/m² (CasaNova 215 kg/m²). However, avalanches can cause roof damages.
In order to avoid damages in case of stormy weather, all Biohort products must be secured to the ground floor using the mounting parts provided, such as anchors and dowels.
Biohort declines any kind of responsibility for damages caused by inadequate mounting of storm proof anchorage.
Most Biohort storage solutions are fitted with a lockable twist-grip, a cylinder lock or a door with a profile cylinder lock.
Biohorts -Garden Shed/-Equipment Locker/-LeisureTime Box/-PAKET-BOX/-StoreMax can therefore be defined as a "lockable container" and the contents can be insured up to a defined value limit against burglary. Of course even locked Biohort products can be opened with the appropriate force. Our garden sheds "HighLine", "AvantGarde" and the annexe "CasaNova" provide the highest levels of security against burglary.
What is burglary?
When we speak of a burglary, we generally mean a ‘break-in’ or forced entry accompanied by theft. That is to say, if the burglar, by the use of force and with aid of tools, illegally-built keys or with keys that have been previously acquired by burglary or robbery, gains access to a secure building with the intent to steal property stored within.
A burglary also occurs if the offender manages to overcome barriers and barricades or to enter through openings not designed to admit access or through an act of stealth obtains access to secured premises. Finally, the entrance into and removal of objects from locked containers or premises is also defined as an act of burglary.
Care/maintenance
Biohort products need almost no care and maintenance, due to the high quality of the materials and their careful manufacture. Just lubricate the lock and the hinges once a year. Clean the shutter guides of the StoreMax regularly resp. lubricate them with silicone spray. If the products get dirty caused by climatic and environmental influences, use only water and the Biohort CleanLine universal cleaner.
It is also possible to use a high-pressure cleaner, as long as you keep a distance of min.10 cm and use no steam cleaner. Max pressure approx. 80 bar.
For conversation of the painted surface, we recommend you the Biohort CleanLine conservation, which optimally protects the painted surface from climatic and environmental influences.
In cases of scratches, varnish the spots affected with some lacquer.
Important: Salty and/or sandy ambient air, aggressive and scrubbing cleaners, thawing salt, fertilizers and other chemical materials (never store products opened) can attack the lacquer painted and zinc surface and cause rust damages.
Claims under guarantee cannot be granted.
Technology
Biohort products are manufactured primarily out of high-quality sheet steel. Some components are made out of durable aluminium. Please note that the aluminium components are not as resistant to hail as those manufactured from steel.
Garden shed series Europa | 10° |
Garden sheds AvantGarde M and L | 7° |
Garden sheds AvantGarde XL and XXL | 5° |

Biohort garden sheds have proven their quality for over 30 years. Our hot-dipped galvanised, polyamide coated steel plate is supplied by the worldwide renowned Austrian Voestalpine steel mills. Premium car manufacturers, such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi, have all placed their trust in the high quality of "Voestalpine steel" for years. It is therefore with good reason and a clear conscience that we can offer our customers a 20-year guarantee against corrosion. Some components are made out of aluminium, which means a considerable reduction in weight and adds to the durability of our products.
Ventilation is provided by 11 mm wide slits between the metal roof panels and the roof supports or via concealed ventilation slits. The circulation is ensured thanks to a constant flow of air.
During assembly it is important to ensure that a moisture barrier against rising damp is installed (see foundation proposal garden shed). High air humidity and large variations in temperature can result in condensation forming on the inside of the roof overnight. This can be prevented by attaching 2 cm thick polystyrene panels (or for HighLine 3 cm XPS rigid hard foam panels) inside the roof. These panels are available in all DIY-stores. The garden sheds "AvantGarde" and "HighLine" are already prepared for the insulation of the roof interior. For the garden shed "Europa" additional fixing material can be ordered via the Biohort customer service.
It is very difficult to gauge noise levels, an accurate indication is impossible to measure as this always depends on personal tolerance. Rain drops depending on strength and intensity as it falls upon the roof, window sill and trees, generate a certain background noise level.
To reduce the noise level, you can insulate our products HighLine, AvantGarde and Europa. The inside of the roof of the garden sheds "AvantGarde" and "HighLine" are already prepared for insulation. For the garden shed "Europa" additional fastening material is offered.
In accordance with the building requirements, the assembly of a garden shed on a roof terrace is legal.
IMPORTANT: Make sure, that your garden shed is fixed storm-proof (fixing material is already included in the delivery). No liability can be assumed for damages caused by insufficient fixed Biohort-products.
Biohort-products are not designed for keeping animals.
Biohort products are designed as storage solutions. When required insulation can be mounted on the inside of the roof of the garden sheds. The sheds of the series "AvantGarde" and "HighLine" are already prepared for a roof insulation! For Sheds of the series "Europa" we can offer additional fastening material for fixing roof insulation.
The height of the door threshold is normally about 30 mm. When using the optional aluminum floor frame (cross-section: 40 x 40 mm), the height of the door threshold increases to approx. 70 mm.
Garden Shed series "Europa" | up to 180° (depending upon the location of the door and optional rainwater drainpipes) |
Garden Shed series "AvantGarde" | 115° |
Garden Shed series "HighLine" | 115° |
Depending on the foundation design chosen, it may be necessary to adjust the door gap. The door gap can be readjusted by moving the hinges (long slots), the side wall elements (long slots), and if necessary, by adjusting the floor frame profiles (long slots).
The optional aluminum floor frame for the smaller products can also be installed afterwards - with little extra effort.
An optional door panel or extra door can be retrofitted. However, please take into account the additional work required. We recommend you plan the desired door configuration in advance of or contact our customer service.
The Biohort colours do not match any RAL number, but partially have similaritities to RAL numbers:
White | This colour has no similarity with a RAL-colour. |
Green | similar to RAL 6005 |
Metallic quartz grey | similar to RAL 7039 |
Metallic silver | similar to RAL 9006 |
Metallic dark grey | This colour has no similarity with a RAL-colour. |

The bicycle holder can be fitted into the Biohort garden sheds (plug-in system). Thanks to the V-shaped profile, not only bicycles with narrow tyres but also mountain bikes can be securely stored. The bicycle is hung from the front tyre rim in such a way as to ensure that the bicycles own centre of gravity prevents it from falling over. The bicycle holder should be positioned with a clearance of at least 30 to 40 cm from the nearest wall (width of the handlebars should always be taken into account). Should several bicycle holders be positioned beside each other, a distance of approx. 55 to 60 cm is recommended. However different clearance can be chosen if desired. Should the bicycles be positioned in different heights, the clearance between the bicycle holders can be reduced to 30 to 40 cm and this saves space. For this, the suspension brackets should be positioned alternately at the highest and the lowest hole group of the guide rail.
The distances stated above are only recommended as guidelines. The actual local surroundings and the sizes of the bicycles must be taken into account. Allow enough clearance between each bicycle holder, otherwise hanging and dismounting bicycles will be more inconvenient than necessary.
Please note that the already installed door threshold must be REMOVED before a retroactive fitting of the optional access ramp can be made.
The installation of the access ramp is only possible for 2-wing doors. The access ramp may be used in combination with the aluminum floor frame. The access ramp can only be positioned when the doors are open and must be removed before closing the doors!
The optional aluminum floor frame regardless of the type of foundation represents an ideal addition to our products.
The optional aluminium floor panels, in combination with the optional aluminium floor frame, are a useful addition to the garden shed. Regardless of the type of foundation, both items can be used.
The aluminium-floor panels can however only be installed in combination with the aluminium floor frame!
Please note that a layer of XPS rigid foam panels with a thickness of approximately 2 to 3 cm (not included) should first be placed under the aluminium-floor panels.
Rain water downpipes are offered according to the selected product and are sufficiently dimensioned for the drainage of water on the roof area. You can install max. 2 rain water downpipes on each garden shed.
| garden shed HighLine® | max. 1 rain water downpipe set = 2 rain water downpipes |
| garden shed AvantGarde | max. 1 rain water downpipe set = 2 rain water downpipes |
| garden shed Europa | max. 2 rain water downpipe sets = 4 rain water downpipes |
Optional rainwater drainpipes are manufactured from galvanized sheet steel in the matching colour for your shed. The diameter of the individual drainpipes is 40 mm.
The pipes are designed to fit into a 50 mm drain pipe.
Legal considerations
Guarantee against rusting through of the steel panels and for defective or unserviceable parts.
The following are excluded from the guarantee: damages incurred in transit (haulage company is liabe), damages incurred due to faulty or inadequate foundations, due to corrosive materials in the surroundings or the storage of such materials within our sheds and indirect or secondary damage.
For wear and tear, moving parts, changes in colour, plastic- and rubber parts the statutory period of guarantee applies. Here you can find our terms of guarantee. We will gladly send the details to you on request.
As a rule, no! In most countries the local building regulations permit-you to freely position sheds on your own ground. In some cases an application can be submitted afterwards to the local authorities. In many places, one is even allowed to place the shed directly along the boundary. In the assembly instructions for our sheds a "planning application" for such purposes is included. You can also download the application form directly from our website.
Our tip: check with your local authorities or government before erecting the shed. Furthermore, we advise you to inform and come to an agreement with your neighbours.

Special requirements or options
With the exception of the Shed sizes 1 and 2, the standard door (135 cm wide x 171 cm high) can be replaced by ordering a wider double door (171 cm x 171 cm). Due to the modular construction, the wider door can only be positioned eccentrically in the walls. The surrounding wall panels will be then matched with the larger opening and delivered in the corresponding quantity and sizes.
The installation of a second double door is possible for all shed sizes of "AvantGarde" (from size L) and "Europa" (from size 3). The doors must be ordered as optional add-on packs.
The amount of side wall elements supplied are adjusted to the appropriate number of pieces.
Unfortunately the installation of an additional double wing door is not possible for the Garden Shed "Highline"!
The door can be mounted off-centre or on any shed wall depending upon the shed size.
Garden shed "Europa": if the door is fitted in the outer left or right-hand corner of a side wall (below the gutter spout), the drainpipe and storm hooks can no longer be fitted.
Garden sheds "AvantGarde" and „HighLine“ are delivered with door handle and installation cylinder as standard.
For garden sheds „Europa“, "Equipment Locker" and "WoodStock", the usage/installation of door handle and installation cylinder is not possible.
It is possible to extend garden sheds „Europa“ with an „extension kit“ in a contact spacing of ca. 70 cm depth. A combined Garden Shed "Europa" is provided with one double wing door. However access can be improved by adding an additional double door or even an extra wide door!
Special orders regarding width, depth and height are not possible.
Garden Sheds "Europa" can optionally be equipped with a "window unit" which is corresponding with the size of a sidewall unit. The window unit can also be installed subsequently but keep in mind that additional assembly costs occur.
The side canopy (catslide roof) at the garden shed „Europa“ will be attached after disassembling the relevant roof gutter at the existing shed roof. The resulting effort is very little.
Electrical installations (such as lighting, power supply, etc.) are generally permitted. Please note that any such electrical installation should only be carried out by a qualified electrician. Please ensure you make the necessary planning arrangements for an appropriate power-supply during the creation of the foundations.
For a lighting, we recommend the installation of battery-movement-sensitive-lights. This saves you the electrical installation.
We would recommend you the following products:
LED-light from Müller Licht - article nr. 57015 (easily fixed with magnet)
Biohort advises against planting a “green roof” (please note that the weight of a green roof must be taken into account regarding the total roof load). The growth of certain climbing plants such as "wall vines", etc. is permissible.
Biohort products are only available in the colours specified. Custom colours are not available.
Apart from product-specific special solutions no custom-made designs are offered on non-standard dimensions.
For correct installation of the aluminium floor panels, the optional aluminium floor frame is mandatory! If the optional aluminium floor frame is already in place, the floor panels can be mounted at any time with very little effort.
An optional extra door / double door can be retrofitted. However, bear in mind the additional work required for the installation.
Thanks to the modular-like construction and design, it is possible to convert the Biohort-garden shed Europa. Depending on the static factors it is possible to extend existing garden sheds "Europa". Please ask our customer service.
