Is it worth installing electricity in the garden tool shed?

I am now also in favor of electricity in Biohort; it already has many advantages.

Do you mean the base frame from Biohort?

We have imagined it like this. We want to have the foundation for the Biohort made out of patio slabs (like a terrace) and then place the Biohort on top of it.

Is that correct so far? How much larger should the foundation be?

Yes exactly, the Biohort base frame!
Biohort provides instructions for assembly.
We have a larger paved area on which we placed it.
Your slabs should be fixed so that nothing shifts over time, so professional installation, probably with some kind of edge/curbstones? I don’t really know, we had that done and only assembled the Biohort ourselves on top of it.
According to Biohort, installation on a gravel bed is also possible, but then you also need the aluminum floor from the accessories, which I am not familiar with.

We definitely want terrace slabs in the house and not the aluminum floor slab (which is also extremely expensive) The slabs we already have are 40x40x8cm normal grey concrete slabs

Are you satisfied with your Biohort? We want to get the Avangarde A8

We are very satisfied with it. Also with the paved ground, we have smaller paving stones, but it should also work with 40x40. After all, it’s only a garden house/shed. If necessary, it will just be a bit crooked. Assembly is definitely doable with the Biohort because all the holes are correct, good screws are included, etc. Plan the assembly with enough helpers (3-4); the A8 is quite large and with the big parts you need two people to hold and one to screw. The children can then hand over the screws!

Yes, the A8 is really quite large, but can the equipment shed actually be too big? There's always something you can store in it; in winter it might be sun loungers, lawnmowers, bicycles, etc.

The shed will probably fill up quickly.

Ok, we will then have the patio slabs paved so that it is done properly. Can the patio slabs be protected from moisture? So that during extended rainy periods the concrete stones do not absorb water and the stones inside do not become wet or damp?

Patio slabs do not soak up water?! Nothing inside will get damp, you shouldn't put anything sensitive in there anyway.
