I have browsed the security for bikes site many times as its full of useful info on securing your bikes so when I bought a metal bike shed I knew I wanted to add some extra security in the form of the shed shackle, really happy with the product, easy to understand comprehensive instructions and easy to install with the supplied drill bits. I have managed to chain 3 bikes to it using a 100cm chain and I don't think that there is much more I can do to prevent theft without making life more difficult for myself.

Ordered a Shed Shackle bundle at lunchtime and was delivered the next morning, prompt personal service from David via email - sorted me out with longer coach bolts due to a miscalculation on my part, which also arrived the following morning. Amazing service in this era of faceless corporate money-grabbing.

So, the Shackle is really easy to install, took me about 45 mins and I'm no DIYer.. All the kit you need to install is bundled - including a drill bit. I now have a solid locking point in my shed, wasn't able to use a concrete ground anchor and was struggling to find anything that was as effective until I stumbled across a review for this.
Now off to fit my new HS1 hasp, then my pride and joys will be moving out of the house, into the shed and I will be able to sleep soundly knowing they'll be secure. My wife will be happy too as space reclaimed in the house!!

I recently bought a Shed Shackle, and have to say how i,pressed I was with the service. My order was acknowledged straight away, and I was kept informed regarding the (really quick) delivery. Fitting could not have been easier, particularly with the supplied drill bit. My bike is now locked safely and securely - a great product that gives real peace of mind. Thanks!

Very impressed indeed with the quality and attention to detail. The instructions are exemplary with every eventuality covered.
Simple to fit, even came with the drill bit required for drilling the mounting holes and plastic caps to cover the ends of the bolt threads.
Very pleased indeed and would not hesitate to recommend this excellent product.

Keeping my motorbike in my shed I was in need of an anchor to add extra security, but due to the layout I was unable/impractical to hack up the shed floor to access the concrete base.
The Shedshackle met all my requirements, and is an impressive heavy duty bit of kit.
It was relatively easy to install, although I did nearly cut off the tip of my finger using a hacksaw to trim the bolts down!(oops)
The shear nuts did prove quite difficult to detach, however, and needed to be encouraged with a hacksaw. I also think I overtightened the bolts trying to shear the nuts, as the bolt heads have sunk quite substantially into the outer wood panel. But that panel is not visible, so I'm not bothered.
Anyway, it's an excellent bit of kit, and feel it really provides a strong deterrent.

Order arrived in under 24 hours, very well made with great installation instructions. Many thanks!

Bought this in combination with some hinge reinforcers. Both great quality to protect my belongings after being the victim of two break ins in less than a week and lost a great bike in the process. Really feel confident in the ability of the product to stand up to any further attempts and to keep my pride and joy with it's rightful owner.
Communication was first class and you know that there is passion about the products and reasons why they chose to pursue this line of work.
Will recommend with no hesitation and a pleasure to do business with. Keep up the good work.

This is a simple, but really impressive piece of metalwork. I bought a first one for my bike shed, and it was easy to install. Once set up, it has made both my bike shed stronger, and acts as a very visible deterrent to anyone breaking into my shed to try and steal my bikes. I feel that in as far as is possible with a wooden shed, it is now as secure as it can be. Having fitted the first one, my wife asked me to get another to install in her own bike shed... That is a mark of how good the product is! Very Highly Recommended!

Really easy to fit with clear instructions and a fast delivery service.
I had to weaken the shear bolts (the instructions said this may be required) to stop the shed walls being crushed. Since fitting the shed wall doesnt flex or move at all.
Very impressed and worth every penny. Thankyou

The shackle is a quality product and I received a lot of patient and expert advice from customer services. It was easy to fit and, with good advice, I also bought the 13cm protector chain and a top of the range padlock for 2 expensive electric bikes in a metal shed. Extremely happy.

I was after a ground anchor to go into the concrete floor of my shed to secure mountain bikes. However I discovered that the shed is built on batons which means there was a small recess below the shed floor and the concrete meaning a ground anchor would not work unless I cut a hole in the shed floor which I didn't want to do. David provided excellent advice recommending the shed shackle as an alternative. I fitted it today and it's a superb product and has given me piece of mind knowing it would be extremely difficult and probably unlikely that someone would be able to steal my bikes without detection. A great product and service. These guys have been my number one choice for all security needs for some years now providing excellent products and fair prices.

What a great product and excellent service from ordering right through to delivery. Great looking product with all the items and clear instructions included to make this a simple task. Very tough and will keep my items very safe for years to come. I can highly recommend this product to anybody who needs that extra little security and peace mind.

I ordered the shackle with the Protector 11mm Chain and Squire SS50P5 Open Shackle Lock. Firstly, very impressed with the hassle-free ordering and delivery. Received two updates via email from Pragmasis on the progress of my order and a text on the day specifying the hour of delivery. The shackle was easy to fit with the step by step instructions, and is very solid. Happy too with the chain and lock. All in all, highly recommended.

I highly recommend the shed shackle . Well worth the money , easy to fit and total security for your bikes .

This is a great product at a competetive price. The customer service from this company is excellent.
I would highly recommend them.

Great customer service and prompt delivery, very easy to fit and nice touch that a drill bit was provided. Very good instructions and very simple to fit, It was installed and ready to us in 20 mins and now the 2 bikes are very secure in our shed. Thank you

Took a while to decide how to secure my bike but this works a treat - very easy to secure to the shed frame - bolts were perfect and the drill bit provided was v handy. Instructions about as good as I've ever seen for any product I've bought. Excellent!

this is my second purchase from securityforbikes.com, and I am delighted with the kit. I consider their products excellent value.

This is a well designed product that fits a gap in the market and I am pleased with my purchase. Anyone wanting to detach the shackle from the shed will need some serious tools and it will take lots of effort, and make a lot noise.

I am not a proficient DIYer but found it straightforward to fit. The instructions were comprehensive and very clear. I took more than the suggested 30 mins, but that's me.

Thanks

This is very secure and easy to fit. I ordered it with 13cm bolts. One small issue I had was that some of the bolts spun before they were tight enough to shear the hex nut. I had enough thread showing to use Mole grips to complete job (don't have to worry about damaging the thread!).

I'm an amateur diy guy but I found the shed shackle was easy to install with the supplied instructions. There's a good weight to it that inspires confidence. Shipping was quick and fair. Thanks guys!

The design is good and the product looks like it will do the job well. The modular design is useful as you can adjust it for your needs/shed etc.

My main problem is that the shear nuts won't shear. The cause seems to be is that these nuts are designed for clamping over metal and not soft wood as used on most sheds. What results is that the connection will crush the wood long before the nut shears. As mentioned in other comments this can be addressed by taking a hacksaw to the nut but this is additional installation and not really ideal. I feel that a spreader bar or large plate washer on the outside may help combat this but this is not included. It was also supplied with 8 nuts&bolts where you need 11 to install with all holes bolted. I had spares that I've used but would prefer to get enough supplied to fit it fully

[Pragmasis Comment: The shear nuts are normally fine but it does depend on the quality of the cladding on the outside of the shed. I'd guess that at least 95% are fine, but the instructions do suggest weakening the nut with a hacksaw, as you've said, if the wood isn't up to it. A spreader bar wouldn't work because many sheds have feather-edge boards, which don't present a flat surface on the outside, and large washers would also not work in that case, as well as compromising the grip that the square section under the coach bolt head provides into the wood, so the whole bolt would be liable to spin when being tightened. You only need 7 or 8 bolts to fit the Shed Shackle sufficiently. There are more holes in the metalwork to give more versatility for how you fit it, but it is not necessary to put bolts through every hole to get it secure. That would just make for more holes in the woodwork for no benefit. The instructions do explain this, with the particular note that the main 'shackle' section should always be bolted through all 4 of its holes. I hope that explains further. We are happy to answer queries.]

Bought the shed shackle as wanted to make my bikes secure in my gaden shed.easy to fit and once fitted any would be thief would be put off by the work it take to steal. Although expensive worth every penny to protect your pride and joy

Pragmasis don't do customer service, they do personal service! Fitted the shackle no problem and delighted with the full package, even included drill bits. Kept up to date by personal email for all my orders.

Great kit, delivered quickly, with good communication from Pragmasis. Easy to install, and looks secure. Just hoping it doesn't get tested (after my previous theft). I've added extra security measures to the garden and store in addition to the Shed Shackle.
Highly recommended.

After spotting the Shed Shackle on line a few months ago I finally decided to order one to install into my newly built shed. Best installation instructions that I have come across. Clear and simple, a breeze to fit too as long as you read first and then double check measurements as you go along. Done in less than 45 mins. Rock solid! My partners Ins Co also agreed to the "Sold Secure" certificate which also kept her Insurance price down. Result! Well done Pramasis.

We'd had bicycles cluttering up the house for months and a dilapidated shed so when the new shed arrived, I needed to beef up the security and these guys had everything I needed. They were very helpful, a UK supplier that's responsive, and provides superb instructions to fit whatever you've bought, and provides high quality kit. Fingers crossed I won't ever get burgled, but I now have total confidence my shed is not only very difficult to get into (Shed Door Beef-Up Kit), but once in, with the chain, padlock and more importantly the shed shackle, burglars are probably going to just walk away because the kit they'll need, and the noise they'll make doing it will make the whole thing not worth their while. Thanks!

Good quality product, excellent instructions in word format not the "generic diagrams" type. Good customer service from ordering through to delivery - very rare in these days of online ordering. Would recommend.

Second bike shackle I've bought. Excellent product to secure my bike chains and locks through. Very highly recommended with fantastic service when ordering from the website. 24 hour delivery with great communication. Thankyou.

Cant fault it.

RED. Imposing. Impossible to remove. Easy to install.

Feel much better leaving my bikes in the shed now :)

Fantastic service from Pragmasis too.
