Ducati Monster 937 – 1200mm Extra-Wide Door ArmadilloBoxes Installation
Ducati Monster 937 secure outdoor motorcycle storage
Introduction
The Ducati Monster 937 is a modern naked motorcycle designed for regular riding and everyday enjoyment. When garage space isn’t available, outdoor storage needs to be secure, weatherproof, and—most importantly—easy to use.
This installation shows how an ArmadilloBoxes steel motorcycle storage unit with an extra-wide door provides secure outdoor storage for a Ducati Monster 937, chosen specifically to make everyday access as straightforward as possible.
Customer requirement
The owner required outdoor motorcycle storage that:
-
securely accommodates a Ducati Monster 937
-
prioritises ease of use for frequent riding
-
provides genuine theft resistance rather than cosmetic deterrence
-
protects the motorcycle from year-round weather exposure
The real-world challenge
Although more compact than adventure or touring bikes, the Ducati Monster 937 is often used frequently. Narrow door openings and lightweight sheds can make everyday storage awkward and frustrating, even for naked motorcycles.
A suitable storage solution needs sufficient door clearance, rigidity, and stability so the bike can be rolled in and out smoothly without tight steering angles or repeated adjustments.
The solution
A 1200mm wide ArmadilloBoxes secure motorcycle storage unit with an extra-wide door was selected specifically for ease of use. The rigid steel construction forms a strong base layer of security, while the extra-wide door opening allows controlled, predictable access for a naked motorcycle like the Monster 937.
For owners comparing options, the ArmadilloBoxes size guide helps determine the most suitable unit width for different motorcycle styles.
A steel unit also provides a stronger security foundation than timber sheds, which is why many riders review motorcycle security options alongside their storage choice.

Ducati Monster 937 storage FAQs
Will a Ducati Monster 937 fit in a 1200mm ArmadilloBoxes unit?
Yes. The 1200mm ArmadilloBoxes unit with an extra-wide door provides ample clearance for the Monster 937’s handlebars and mirrors in typical configurations.
Why choose an extra-wide door for the Ducati Monster 937?
The extra-wide door improves ease of use and makes frequent access smoother and more controlled, especially for daily riding.
Is a steel motorcycle shed more secure than a wooden shed?
Steel storage units provide a much stronger base level of security than timber sheds, which can be forced quickly.
Do I need a concrete base?
No. An ArmadilloBox does not require a concrete base. The unit is structurally sound and can be installed directly onto grass or gravel without damaging the sub-base. Its own weight keeps it stable even before the motorcycle is stored inside.
The units are very rigid and can be packed during installation to bring the door square, allowing accurate alignment on uneven ground. However, like any structure, they should not be installed where water is allowed to pool, and the ground should be free-draining.
