Someone on ebay a while back sold designs were you stack em and build homes out of them. So I assume you can get round the condensation problem, I cannot imagine anyone liking corregated wallpapering!

 

Also I think classic vehicle fanatics have rigged them with air con and de humidifiers.

I dug mine into the ground, small ramp down and used the spoil to cover the roof, rear and sides. You have to leave the door exposed but a bit of hardened steel plate for lock protection and a secondary door on the inside with a site safe for smaller tools which is welded to the ground with chains to hold the larger objects. Can't do much else but it's everything I can do to slow them down. A few big flood lights and motion sensors to wake the pooch is about as good as it gets.

As good as, the tools I use to earn my living and pay my mortgage. I've got the opportunity and tools to do it with so with a 13t 360 it took half a day to create a level surface and earth bund around it. Then a further half day for welding work. Not a huge job and looks good. The plating around the locks stops them being cut but essentially it's only to slow the thieving ***** gits down as if they want it they'll get it!

Ours is pretty dry, except by the hole in the roof! Fine for storing kit. Security wise I rekon they can be as good as anything else. It's is all about slowing them down, or making it easier to go someplace easier.

 

If you line them with ply, that can slow unauthorized entry down, as metal cutting tools don't cut wood well. We still chain all the saws up, again just to slow them down.

 

By the time anyone got in the alarms and cctv should have alerted us to any intruders!
