Sheds for Aylesbury – Timber and Metal Garden Buildings
If you are looking for sheds in Aylesbury, this page brings together the garden sheds currently available from 1st Choice Leisure Buildings for customers in the Aylesbury area. The selection includes traditional timber sheds, pressure-treated buildings, corner sheds, narrow storage sheds, Dutch Barn designs and secure metal sheds, so the right choice depends on what you need to store and how you intend to use the building.
This page sits beneath our main garden sheds category, which covers our complete shed range. Here, I want to focus on customers searching for sheds for sale in Aylesbury and help you understand the products currently displayed, rather than repeat a general shed-buying guide.
What Sheds Are Available for Aylesbury?
If you want a traditional timber shed with plenty of choice over size and layout, the Diamond Chichester Apex, Chichester Pent and Woodgate Reverse Apex are all currently shown on this page. They offer free fitting within the applicable delivery area, colour-finish options, and considerable flexibility across doors, windows, and bespoke configurations.
The Sapphire selection includes Swanwick and Cadnam buildings in apex, pent and reverse-apex layouts. The Sapphire Swanwick Apex, for example, offers pressure-treated timber construction, colour finishes and a full-insulation option, making it worth considering if you want more than straightforward garden storage.
If you prefer a different style, the Durrington and Ditchling Dutch Barns are also actually displayed here, together with Storrington and Eversley corner sheds and the Shoreham Narrow Shed. These can be particularly useful where the shape or available space in your Aylesbury garden makes a conventional rectangular shed less suitable.
The Platinum Portsmouth Apex is another timber option on this page, with pressure-treated construction, free assembly in the applicable delivery area, colour-finish and insulation options.
Are Metal Sheds Available for Aylesbury?
Yes. This page also currently includes a substantial choice of GardenVault metal buildings. These include Silverdale, Deepdale, Tarrickdale, Skelmersdale, Birkdale, Forestdale, Allandale, Avondale, Clydesdale and Glendale models, covering everything from slimline and bicycle storage through to larger secure metal sheds and workshops.
The GardenVault Deepdale Workshop, for example, is a galvanised-steel building available in several lengths with a steel floor base and an optional assembly service. If security and relatively low-maintenance storage are higher priorities than the traditional appearance of timber, the metal products shown here are worth comparing.
Timber or Metal Shed – Which Should I Choose?
Start with how you intend to use the building. Timber gives you a traditional appearance and, depending on the model, a wider choice of windows, painted finishes, bespoke layouts and insulation. Metal can make sense where secure storage, lower maintenance and resistance to rot are particularly important.
Neither material is automatically right for everybody. After working with sheds since 1979, I have learnt that the best building is the one whose specification suits the job, not simply the one with the longest list of features.
Can Sheds Be Delivered and Fitted in Aylesbury?
Many of the timber sheds displayed on this page include professional fitting or assembly within their applicable delivery areas. At the same time, some GardenVault metal buildings offer assembly as an optional or included service, depending on the model. Delivery and installation conditions vary, so I recommend checking the individual product page and our delivery areas information before ordering.
You will normally need a firm and level base ready before installation. This matters whether you choose timber or metal because the foundation quality directly affects door operation, alignment, and the building’s long-term performance.
Which Shed Is Right for My Aylesbury Garden?
Start with what you need to store. For tools, lawnmowers and everyday garden equipment, one of the Diamond buildings may provide all the specifications you need. If pressure-treated timber and insulation are important, compare the Sapphire Swanwick and Cadnam products. If a corner or narrow layout suits your garden better, look at the Storrington, Eversley or Shoreham buildings actually shown on this page.
If security is the priority, compare the GardenVault metal products. Their shapes and sizes vary considerably, so decide whether you need bicycle storage, a narrow shed, motorcycle storage, or a larger workshop-style building before comparing prices.
What Should I Check Before Buying a Shed in Aylesbury?
I would never choose a shed from the photograph and price alone. Check the framing, cladding, floor, roof, doors and glazing on timber buildings, or the steel thickness, floor arrangement, doors and locking system on a metal building. Also check the exact dimensions rather than relying solely on the nominal size.
Think about access to your garden as well. A shed has to reach the installation position, so gates, alleyways, neighbouring buildings and changes in ground level can all matter. It is much better to establish those details before ordering.
My Experience With Sheds Goes Back to 1979
I’m Robin Antill, founder of 1st Choice Leisure Buildings. I left school at 15 and started my own business in 1979 trading as Marina Sheds. In those days, I made and sold sheds myself, delivered buildings, and dealt directly with customers, so my knowledge of garden buildings began with practical experience rather than simply selling products from a website.
I sold Marina Sheds in 1990, although unfortunately I did not receive all the money which was due from the sale. It was a difficult lesson, but I stayed in the garden-building industry and carried on.
In 1992 we expanded beyond traditional sheds to include summerhouses, garages, garden rooms and log cabins. That broader direction led to the name Titan Garden Buildings. My son Craig joined me in 1992 after studying carpentry at Guildford College from 1990, bringing his own practical woodworking knowledge into the business.
We sold Titan Garden Buildings in 1998 and in 2000 made another important change. Rather than being restricted to products from one manufacturer, we formed 1st Choice Leisure Buildings so we could compare buildings from established manufacturers and offer customers a genuine choice of specifications and prices.
Craig now runs the day-to-day business, and I remain involved to support him and the team whenever required. You can read more about our history on the About 1st Choice Leisure Buildings page.
Why Does My Experience Matter When Buying a Shed?
Having worked with garden buildings since 1979, including manufacturing them myself, I tend to look beyond an attractive photograph. Timber quality, framing, floors, roofs, doors, glazing, treatment and installation all matter, and different customers genuinely need different specifications.
That is one of the reasons Craig and I formed 1st Choice. We didn’t want to be tied to one manufacturer’s answer for every customer. If a Diamond shed suits your needs, I would rather recommend that than push you towards something more expensive. If Sapphire, Portsmouth or one of the GardenVault metal buildings better matches the job, then that is what you should compare.
Can I See the Sheds Before Buying?
Whenever practical, I strongly recommend seeing garden buildings before making a final decision. Although our display site is in Surrey rather than Aylesbury, customers are welcome to visit our garden building display site at Sutton Green, between Guildford, Woking and Ripley, where around 80 representative buildings are normally available to inspect.
I appreciate that travelling from Aylesbury takes some effort, but a garden building can be a substantial purchase. Standing inside representative sheds lets you judge the floor, doors, timber, windows and usable space in a way photographs cannot fully reproduce. I have been selling sheds since 1979 and still believe seeing before buying is one of the best ways to make an informed decision.

If you are comparing sheds for sale in Aylesbury, start with the intended use, then consider size, construction, access, doors, windows, treatment and whether features such as insulation or professional fitting genuinely matter to you. The products displayed on this page give you a choice ranging from straightforward timber storage through to pressure-treated, insulated and secure metal buildings.
If you are unsure which shed is right for your Aylesbury garden, please ask us. Between Craig, myself and the team, there is a great deal of practical garden-building experience here, and I would much rather help you choose the correct building before you order than see you discover afterwards that another size, material or layout would have worked better.
