Do you want your bikes to be well protected from rain, snow and sun? Then simply build yourself a wooden bicycle garage! A weatherproof bike box not only protects your bikes from the weather, but also keeps your garden or yard tidy. Simon had exactly the same problem: His bikes were standing outside unprotected, which was not ideal in the long term. So he decided to build and paint a practical bicycle garage - with the WAGNER W 590 FLEXiO which makes painting particularly easy and even.
Here you will find complete instructions on how to build your own bicycle garage. Let's get started!
All wooden parts must be clean before painting. Lay them all next to each other and remove dust and dirt with a dry or slightly damp cloth. This way the paint will hold better later.
Fill the WAGNER W 590 FLEXiO with the desired color. Do a short spray test on a piece of cardboard or wood to find the right setting. If necessary, adjust the settings accordingly.

It is best to place the wooden parts on a flat work surface, preferably slightly raised. This means you can spray comfortably without having to constantly bend down and there are no paint bubbles when coating.
Now it's time to spray! Paint the large areas evenly, the edges can be painted with the detail setting of the WAGNER W 590 FLEXiO edit. Smaller parts are best placed next to each other so that you can spray them in one go. All parts are coated quickly and effortlessly.
Allow the first coat of paint to dry well. If necessary, apply a second coat to achieve perfect coverage.
Now it's time to build! First connect the base, then the side walls and the rear wall. Make sure that everything is securely screwed together.

Attach the doors to the bike garage with hinges. Check that they are easy to open and close.
To ensure that your bike shed is also waterproof from above, attach the roofing felt. Nail or staple down well - done!
Congratulations, you've built your own bike garage! Now your bikes are safe and protected from wind, rain and snow - no more rusty chains or wet saddles.
In addition to its practical use, a self-built bike box also looks great and can be perfectly matched to the color of your surroundings. And best of all: You have designed it just the way you want it! We wish you lots of fun with your new DIY bike garage and a safe ride at all times!
If you are planning a slightly larger project and want to spray both internal walls and other surfaces, you need the W 590 paint sprayer: With two spray attachments - for thick and thin materials - you are ideally equipped for applying wall paints as well as varnishes and glazes.

An unsightly garbage can in front of the house or in the front garden is a thorn in the side of many people. Especially in the outdoor area, where everything should look lovely and harmonious, dustbins often ruin the visual effect. But where can dustbins go? You don't want them in the house, they are not an ornament in front of the house and are often difficult to reach in the shed. The answer is a nice-looking hideaway for your not-so-nice-looking bins!
