Sheds that keep out spiders and doors that keep out intruders<\/p>\n

Love them or hate them most of us have an opinion as to whether we can coexist with the common spider \u2013 we are fast approaching the time of the year when we start to find that many of them have taken residence in our homes \u2013 in the bath, behind the TV or curtains \u2013 generally somewhere where it is warmer than outside. One of the many places apart from their natural habitat of hedgerows etc that we find spiders and their cobwebs in abundance is your average garden shed \u2013 for years the garden shed has been a no go area for those among us suffer from Arachnophobia but anew day may be dawning for the shed owner who loathes spiders.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If a company called Tiger Sheds have anything to do with it images like the above will no longer strike fear in the hearts of all those who have no love for these creatures because they have just launched a new shed which is claimed to be \u201cspider proof\u201d which has attracted both interest and scepticism according to this item posted on the BBC .
\nSilicone sealed and painted blue (because spiders do not like blue apparently) it is designed to deter the average arachnid but at circa \u00a32,000 it is not cheap.
\nAt GFD HQ we decided to do our own investigations \u2013 as one of the guys actually bought a shed from Tiger Sheds a couple of years ago we had the perfect place to start \u2013 (we would also wish to state that it was a very good well constructed shed, courteously delivered with all parts complete and it went together very well and still looks good a couple of years on).
\nAs the forerunner to the current shed we were reliably informed was infested with spiders , frogs and all manner of other creepy crawlies we approached our task with some trepidation – so what did we find in our none spider proofed shed \u2013 just one spider \u2013 but it was a really big one so maybe Tiger Sheds are naturally spider proof \u2013
\nTiger Sheds are not alone in the past couple of weeks in making press releases regarding improvements to their product range Solidor suppliers of timber cored composite doors to Timber Composite Door – released a couple of news items of their own which will significantly impact the Composite Door market while enhancing the Solidor reputation
\nRelease 1- Covers the ability of a Solidor to comply with the new PAS 24 \u201ccut test requirements\u201d requirements for Composite Doors which will in the future be required to achieve a \u201cSecured by Design\u201d accreditation (the one backed by the Police and Insurance Companies) and comply with Part Q of the building regulations \u2013 to read the full release and watch the video of how Solidor was the only one of the three tested that met the criteria see https:\/\/www.solidor.co.uk\/news\/2-doors-fail-new-pas24-cut-test-on-camera-solidor-passes\/2015\/09<\/p>\n

\"Doortesting\"<\/p>\n

Release 2 \u2013 Covers the introduction of the new Ultion lock into the available accessories \u2013 new to the market this lock is set to revolutionise home security \u2013 anti snap, anti drill, anti bump<\/p>\n

The success of this new lock can be measured by the number of door manufacturers who are already adding this lock to their range of options find out more at https:\/\/www.solidor.co.uk\/ultion-lock
