Over here (US) you can get metal sheds that come in kit form with sliding
doors cheaply from the bigger DIY places - there might be something
similar available in the UK. They bolt together easily enough, although
you have to put together your own floor (worst-case some 2x4" framework
with 1/2" chipboard over the top would do, although treated stuff would be
better for anything long-term).
Parts quality isn't that great, the door sliders in particular, but they
come in a range of sizes and are "reasonably" sturdy and secure (i.e. you
get what you pay for - wouldn't stop a hurricane or a tealeaf with some
metal snips). They don't seem to leak, which is a good thing :-)
Got one of those from B&Q (in the UK) last year. It, and its contents,
survived the winter. Can't remember what I paid but do remember seeing
it listed £20 cheaper about two months after I got mine. They come in
two sizes I think. I got the bigger one.
