you could always find something really heavy to put your ground anchor into - like howabout a cement floor ?

a large shotgun and a wilful disreguard for the law should do the trick.

Chain - or put something in the way of the door that makes a lot of noise to move?

I'm gonna buck the trend... IMHO I think you have enough. If you make it look like a fortress it will look even more tempting to a thief as it will look like something valuable is in there.

If the professionals want it they will take it anyway.

My setup is similar, locked shed, disc locks, i also fitted an alarm to the shed but I didn't put the deterrent stickers on.

Make sure your shed windows are blacked out (sorry if that is obvious, but what they can't see, they can't steal)

I am currently working on a ground anchor as my shed is on paving slabs but thats it.

Remeber to weigh up security with how long it takes you to get through it all. My mate has a bike that it taked him 30 mins to get out of his shed. Great for security but v inconvenient. half the time he can't be arsed to get it out!

if anything I'd make the shed more secure - alarms (as previously mentioned) or heavy hinges and good bolts. Has the shed got windows - if so it would make it more vunerable. If all else fails you could put a Neighbourhood Watch sticker on the bike - that would scare them off

I'm with Jenni. My bike lives on my front drive, simply attached to a ground anchor (sunk into concrete) under a cover. It's alarmed and alpha dotted but if a thief really wants your bike they're going to get it.

The only other tip i've got is attach rape alarms to the door so they go off if someone enters. Simple, cheap and ba**ard loud.
