    Thanks Mikey. Quality link.

    We once almost bought a house with one of these http://www.regencytimberbuildings.co.uk/timber_garages.htm

    Not entirely sure how that would be significantly less secure than a brick garage with wooden doors though!

    I would guess they would argue it's easy to crowbar the side or back off a wooden garage, whereas a wooden door is usually a lot more substantial.

    A chat with another broker says "because it might burn down" which seems a tad hopeful.

    Agree re-the crowbarring. Just strange it counts for so little. They'd also have to get both locks off the bike before getting away too!

    What if there was no such thing as a rhetorical question?

    Then it works against you, as no one can see them, and the garage muffles any noise if they use a battery angle grinder.
