Trimetals Double 240Ltr Wheelie Bin Store Anthracite, Grey

The Trimetals Double Wheelie Bin Store is a functional storage solution designed to house two standard 240-litre domestic bins. This unit is constructed from powder-coated galvanised steel, providing a durable alternative to timber or plastic enclosures. The steel casing shields bins from direct sunlight, which helps maintain lower internal temperatures and reduces odour build-up from organic waste during warmer months. Designed for frequent use, the unit features a lid equipped with gas pressure springs for controlled, effortless lifting. Front access is provided by two hinged doors, allowing for the convenient removal of bins on collection days. The dark grey finish (Anthracite style) is chosen for its low-maintenance properties and neutral aesthetic, suitable for standard UK residential environments and modern landscapes. Beyond its primary function, this versatile unit also operates as a secure garden cabinet for tools, machinery, or outdoor equipment. The galvanised steel construction ensures the store remains weather-resistant without the need for annual staining, painting, or preservative treatments. As part of the Trimetals range, this structure focuses on structural integrity and long-term utility in varied UK weather conditions.
