We bought this about three months ago. After construction, I contacted the company to see if there was a way of improving the resistance to wind and rain in an extremely exposed location (top floor balcony about fifty yards from the sea on the South Coast near Brighton). New hinge designs arrived free of charge within a few days. I've had to add reinforcements because the location is so extreme - see picture - but everything in the shed is still dry despite a few storms with names to demonstrate their intensity. I'd recommend extra locks on the sides for locations like mine if that could be accommodated in the future.
