Question regards these Asgard sheds ...

We're going to be pretty limited where in the garden we can put it. It'll probably end up right next to the patio doors.
So is that likely to sound like machine gun fire when it's heaving it down? Can any of you pass comment through experience?

So only bikes around £2k are real then ?

I wasn't going to respond to that but I'll take the bait & give it the response it warrants.....

"yes"

Thinking out of the box. (Sorry)
Some pallets screwed together with extra planking to fill gaps?
Charity shop/free cycle wardrobe that you can reinforce?
Lean-to affair from scrap pvc doors?

If you have insurance that cover your bike then check the terms

I used to keep mine in a shed and all was OK - them suddenly the terms changed and it needed a "ground anchor"
I got round that with a whole in the bottom of the shed and screwed a metal loop to the flags under

but if you claim they might get difficult if they think the bike(s) were too easy to steal

Mine is set away but even outside I have not noticed a significant noise.

It does have a couple of issues. Condensation which means it has a dehumidifier in it and the other is it can get very hot inside. Read that ebike batteries will start to fail at over 26 degrees which might explain why I had to buy a new battery a couple of years ago.

Ah I see. Our existing wooden shed is on a concrete base. Only a small shed really & at the moment it's only a standard latch with a padlock on so that'd be relatively easy to get off for anyone semi determined.

Thanks for the info. I wouldn't be going for an e-bike at this moment in time but handy to know anyway.
