Steel/Fibreglass shed with large door height.

Im struggling to find a shed with a large door height. 

I'm tall and my current shed had a door of 1.6 meters. I've hit my head so many times I've lost count (or forgotten due to concussion :) )

I want a shed around 4m x 2.5m. my only requirement is a large door ideally 1.9m or more and a budget of around 1k

Suggestions?

    Wouldn't it be easier to get a wooden shed built to your requirements as i assume you haven't had success looking online.

    Surely a custom made and built shed would cost way more than 1k

    A friend had a great shed built by a local carpenter ... he used timber offcuts and wood from skips ... picked over so it was good stuff .., she wanted it on a concrete base,  about 10’ x 6’ with double doors in the long side rather than a door in the gable end .., a decent sized window, a workbench and shelves. She had to wait a bit while he gathered the material together, (leftovers from other jobs etc)  can’t remember what the roof is But I know he built the whole shed for £700 18 months ago. Her son painted it with fence-type wood stain . It looks great and she’s very pleased.

    I have this Keter one (think there are other sizes too). It has a decent high doorway - not sure of the exact height without going out to measure it, but it’s over 6’ . I got fed up hitting my head on the old wooden shed I had too!
