- Small Storage Cabinets (Balcony/Patio): AED 500 – AED 1,200. Usually plastic or lightweight metal.
- Medium Garden Sheds (Bikes/Tools): AED 1,500 – AED 3,500. Quality resin brands like Keter fall into this bracket.
- Large/Premium Sheds (Workshops): AED 4,000 – AED 10,000+. These include insulated walls, heavy-duty flooring, and windows.
Additional Costs: Always factor in delivery and assembly (AED 150 - 400) and foundation preparation. Laying concrete slabs or level paving stones will add to your total expenditure but is essential for structural integrity.
