Ah yes, the shed... that's the mk2 version with steel uprights and roof beams, and bolt hinges. I foolishly left the mk1 version with the roof unsecured one weekend when I went away, and came back to find that the wind had got under it, flinging it over the top and onto the fence post..... that roof weighs 45kg!!! - hence the gas struts.
I have used the fence to support the back panel as I couldn't find a way to stabilise the back without great steel bars getting in the way of where I ride the bike in! It does the job, and once I clear the carp out, I can go back to storing the panniers on the shelf!
Like the eyebolt idea, but I've always been a little wary of the small padlocks; had some bad experiences with them.
On the hunt for sheet steel now, although the duralumin should do the job. The light fingered ones can't get any bending moment on it as the hook lip touches the underside of the seat frame.. I might just quit on the steel version and use this!
I'll get a dimensioned drawing up when I can
