Default Garage to shed?

SWTSMBO and the boys keep on about me building a model railway layout
for them in the roof, I'm not keen on putting such things in the roof,
don't want Velux's to have suitable escapes etc.....And its a truss roof
so loadings would be an issue.

So I'm thinking of putting a shed up for them, not a wooden one as they
don't last (Oak's and poor access behind doesn't help) beyond 5-10 years
, so I've been looking a sectional concrete one (better for security
too). For what they cost new, and seeing them for not much in the ad's
I'm wondering if a garage could be reused with panels instead of the big
door? As it would be smaller than most garages probably using the
original parts? Anyone done this? Anyone got a vertical panel garage
going cheap/free in the South Hants area?

Niel.
