Ski Storage

Sports Equipment Storage

Asgard have developed a number of sports equipment storage units. These tough weatherproof all metal units are made from galvanised steel. This makes them rust proof, so there is no need to worry about putting your wet equipment in. The Asgard range of secure metal storage units are unique as they all have built (hidden) in vents in the roof. This clever feature allows moisture to escape helping to reduce condensation inside the units, keeping your expensive equipment in perfect condition.

As the units are made from tough heavy gauge metal they are very secure and rodent proof, so no mice holes. But what makes them such a good choice?? We have picked the most common sports equipment units available for all manner of sports and had a good look at each of them.

We have asked several different people who take part in these sports to comment on each. We know all about the highly successful Asgard Bike Storage units, so we will start with the secure sports storage unit for skis and ski equipment.

The comments:

“Seems very expensive for what is essentially a large coat hanger. I don’t understand the purpose of it. It looks easy enough to fix to the garage wall, but I ski only twice a year, so I would imagine my skis would get damaged as we go about our daily life. Would be better if it was in a cupboard or maybe a wardrobe”- A

“Where can I put my jackets?? They are too big to put in our wardrobe, so they will still have to go upstairs in the attic, so I don’t see a point of keeping the skis in the garage and the jackets etc else where”- B

“No good to me. I keep all my equipment outside in the shed wrapped up in an old sleeping bag, so nobody knows what they are. They don’t offer any way of hiding what they are, everything is on show. I would be tempted to put a chain around them for security” - C

2: Asgard sports storage (storage for ski equipment): Price around £500. Large unit suitable for internal and external use. Holds multiple sets of skis, jackets, snowboards and boots. Made from rust proof heavy gauge metal, integral metal floor a 5 point locking system approved to level 1 by the Loss Prevention Certification Board.

The comments:

“I have some Solomon skis, costing around £500 so this unit is as much as the skis. With that in mind it’s good that the unit is so big, I could actually get all three sets of our ski gear in here with all the boots etc. So at £500 that is a little more sensible. The locking mechanism is excellent, very secure. If the LPCB certification gets an insurance discount then that would be excellent”. “I would be happy to leave this outside in the garden un attended” - A

“I like this idea. We don’t have room in the garage for a special ski store (who does??) so this would go in the garden. Looks quite a stylish unit and seems very secure, so I would think it would keep all my clothes safe.. It’s not cheap though, but if it is insurance approved it would probably be worth it given we have around £3000 of equipment. Looks like there may be room for the lawn mower as well so it could be multipurpose”. – B

“Looks better than my wooden shed. The vented roof is a good idea keeping moisture of my stuff. It would be nice to get rid of the sleeping bags and the mice that now seem to live in them. The free integrated tool rail is a great idea, good for hanging masks etc.”. - C

Ski Storage

We have just come back from our last ski holiday until September ( (. Now it is time to store my skis until later in the year. If stored in the correct manner my skis and ski equipment will be so much better when you dust them off for the next ski adventure. Storing my skis correctly will help them last longer and perform better.

Ski storage doesn’t take long and is a very easy process.

Instructions

Things You’ll Need:

Cloth

Wax

Waxing iron

Screwdriver

Ski straps

Closet

Step 1

Clean your skis.

Wipe dirt and grime off of them with a cloth. Dry them of any excess water so rust does not accumulate on the metal portions.Step 2

Step 2

Dry your boots. You may need to remove the liner to dry any trapped moisture. This will help prevent mold and mildew from forming.

Step 3

Hot wax your skis. Use a waxing iron and drip wax over the bases and be sure to cover the edges. Use a heavy coating of wax. Do not scrape.

Step 4

Loosen the binding springs with a screwdriver. Do this on the toe and heel-piece for each binding. This gives the tension in the springs a break. Plus it is important to have your skis and bindings tested each year as a safety measure.

Step 5

Once boots are dry, replace the liner and buckle the boots into a closed position.

Step 6

Strap skis together with ski straps.

Step 7

Find a dry place to leave your equipment, some where away from constant people traffic and sticky fingers. This can be a garage, or in the garden shed. Given the cost and delibate nature of these items the best solution is probably a dedicated unit. Ideally a tough weather proof unit with a good strong locking system and made from rust proof material – This will keep your equipment dry, safe from theft and rodents. Ventilation is a good idea too, some air flow will prevent mold etc. on damp items.

Step 8

Leave skis standing upright. Possibly hanging off a rail or hook.

Asgard offer a range of all metal secure storage for ski storage and other sports equipment. See the main asgard website for details of cycle/bike storage, motorcycle storage, ski storage, atv storage, scooter storage, fishing tackle storage and all other types of metal storage.
