Wood storage with legs and wood storage without legs
This is of course something you have to decide for yourself what you like best. If you have a flat and sturdy surface, you can use a wood shed with legs use as one without. If the surface is unstable (in the sand), the legs of a wooden shed may sink into the ground. Then we advise you to choose a wood shed without legs .
Planting wood storage
It is very important that you ensure that there are drainage holes in the wood shed. This ensures that the water can drain from the wood shed, so that the wood will not rot. All our wood stacking racks are equipped with pre-drilled drainage holes.

How many cubic meters of wood are stored in a wood storage facility?
This always depends on the size of the wood shed itself. Naturally, a larger wood store can hold more wood than a small one. To calculate the cubic meters, the following calculation must be made. First of all, you need to convert the dimensions into M. For example, if the wood storage area is 150x38.5x200 cm, you must first convert it into meters. In this case, 1.5 x 0.385 x 2 m. Then take your calculator and multiply these numbers together. In this case you arrive at 1.155 m3, which is equivalent to 1.155 cubic meters of wood. We have already done this work for you and you can easily find the number of cubic meters that fit in the wood storage in the specifications of our wood storage facilities.
Corten steel wood storage
A cortensteel firewood storage made from Corten steel, it is an alloyed steel that has corrosion-resistant properties due to the addition of copper, chromium and nickel. This alloy, a dense barrier layer of adhesive sulfates and phosphates, protects the steel so that no further corrosion occurs. Exposed to the weather, this material begins to unfold a life of its own. The colors change and create new images.
The steel gets a rust-shaped oxidation layer. It provides protection against further rusting. The final color depends on the temperature, humidity and the precise position of the product (vertical or horizontal). The formation of the final barrier layer takes – depending on the climate – approximately 1 year.
A Corten steel wood shed is very strong and is therefore ideal for the garden, landscape and interior. It is also known as Cor-Ten or Corten.
We also have different sizes of Forno corten steel wood storage units with legs and corten steel wood storage units without legs from Geroba.
