The AvantGarde Shed: Style, Engineering & Adaptability for Modern Outdoor Living
If you’re looking for a premium garden building that blends architectural style with Austrian engineering, the Biohort AvantGarde shed is one of the most compelling solutions on the market. Clean lines, exceptional build quality, and genuine adaptability make it far more than a simple garden store — it becomes an extension of your outdoor space.
In this blog, we explore the AvantGarde’s design, size options, accessories, and the difference between the Original and Eco editions. We’ll also highlight how different sizes suit different uses — from mobility scooter storage to patio organisation — along with creative ways to enhance your shed. Whichever model you choose, AvantGarde's signature skylight will give you a fantastic looking shed with a touch of class!
What Makes the Biohort AvantGarde Special?
A Shed with Architectural Presence
The AvantGarde is aptly named: it brings a modern, sleek profile with a slightly forward-sloped roof, concealed fixings, and premium metal finishes. Rather than disappearing into a corner of your garden, it adds an elegant, contemporary touch to any outdoor space.
Austrian engineering at its finest
Biohort is known for engineering excellence, and the AvantGarde lives up to that reputation. Every unit features:
- Hot-dipped galvanised steel from Austria
- Robust, triple-coated panels with excellent corrosion resistance
- A 20‑year manufacturer’s guarantee
- Superb wind and snow load performance
- Almost zero maintenance — no painting, staining, or rust worrie
Choosing the Right AvantGarde Size for Your Needs
The AvantGarde comes in a range of sizes, each suited to different situations.
✅ Mobility Scooter Storage: AvantGarde ECO A2 & A3 (with double doors)
These mid-sized models are ideal for mobility scooters because they offer:
- Wide door openings
- Internal height suitable for sitting and maneuvering
- Enough depth for parking a scooter with space to spare
- Optional ramp for easier access
✅ Patio Storage & Outdoor Living: AvantGarde A1
Compact and stylish, the A1 fits beautifully beside a patio or decking area. It’s perfect for storing seat cushions, BBQ equipment, outdoor toys, garden tools and folding furniture. Tidy and modern, it complements contemporary landscaping.
✅ General Garden Storage: Any AvantGarde Size
Every size can easily handle tools, lawn equipment, bikes, DIY supplies and outdoor accessories. With shelving, hooks, and optional organisation systems, you can tailor any AvantGarde to your needs.
AvantGarde Original vs AvantGarde Eco: What’s the Difference?
Biohort now offers both the Original and Eco versions of the AvantGarde. Here’s how they compare:
- Sleek steel door
- Gas-dampened door openers
- Supplied with shelving and support rails, tool holders and tool hangers
- 3-way locking mechanism
This is the “flagship” version - built for those who want the top‑tier experience.
- Same general footprint and appearance, but cost‑optimised
- 2-way locking mechanism
- Accessories available as optional extras
The Eco is perfect for customers who love the AvantGarde aesthetic but don’t require every premium feature.
