Construction

The 12mm tongue and groove shiplap cladding provides a strong, weathertight exterior with minimal gaps. The construction includes a robust 38mm x 50mm frame that supports the entire structure. The smooth-planed finish ensures the shed not only performs well but also looks exceptionally smart in any garden setting.

Please note that specification measurements are nominal and may vary by plus or minus 1mm on cladding and floorboards, and plus or minus 5mm on framing.

Treatment & Guarantee

The shed comes dip-treated as standard and includes a 1-year parts guarantee. To maintain the handsome appearance of your wooden shed, re-treatment should be carried out within 6 weeks of assembly and annually thereafter.

For enhanced protection, you can upgrade to pressure-treated timber, which extends the anti-rot guarantee to an impressive 15 years. This upgrade also includes FREE extra-thick 15mm cladding instead of the standard 12mm. Please note that pressure-treated timber will still require waterproofing upon assembly and annually to maintain optimal performance.

Doors & Windows

Access is gained via a fully-framed, ledged and braced single door fitted with zinc fittings. The door features a security bolted padlock protector to keep your valuable tools and bicycles completely safe. The door can be positioned in a variety of locations to suit your garden layout and access requirements.

The shed includes a strip of small windows positioned high on the side to provide natural light while deterring unwanted attention. This security-focused window placement is a distinctive feature of this design.

Assembly Information

This wooden garden shed requires assembly on-site. We recommend allowing adequate time and ideally having an extra pair of hands available during construction. Upon assembly, the shed should be treated within 6 weeks and annually thereafter to maintain wood protection.
