metal yard shed recommendations?

Well, my shed dealt with the WIND (100+, they say) just fine. It was the frigging tree that snapped off 12-15 feet up that did it in, when it landed on it. And the trunk had to jump 10 feet sideways to do it, hitting the same corner where the first pine tree did 2 years ago...

But yeah, I grok hurricane code/ wind zone ratings, and the reasons for them. I own a house down in Lake Charles LA, which has many of the same requirements FL does, but thankfully gets nailed a lot less often.

Once I do get around to putting up the new shed, I wonder what the township would say if I built a roll cage around it? That fence is getting pretty ratty looking anyway. A pergola made out of 3-inch pipe on 24" centers would probably do it...
