Construction

This pressure treated wooden shed features expertly constructed 12mm shiplap tongue and groove cladding on a robust 28mm x 56mm frame. The scalloped profile of the shiplap provides excellent rainwater runoff and creates a strong, durable, weatherproof exterior.

The floor is made from premium 12mm tongue and groove timber, supported by pressure-treated bearers to provide extra protection from ground moisture. The floor will easily cope with regular footfall and everyday use.

Treatment & Guarantee

Pressure treated throughout with a 25-year anti-rot guarantee – the longest available on the market. This means no further anti-rot treatment will ever be required, saving you time and money over the lifespan of the shed.

The timber is FSC® certified from well-managed, sustainable UK forests, minimising environmental impact. The wood benefits from a beautiful smooth-planed finish.

Doors & Windows

The wide double doors can be installed in different positions to suit your garden orientation, thanks to the modular design. The doors feature double-Z framing for added strength and to prevent them losing shape. Security is enhanced with hidden hinges and a pad bolt (padlock not included).

The windowless design adds another layer of security by deterring unwanted attention to stored valuables.

Assembly Information

The completely modular design means this garden shed is delivered in smaller sections of interchangeable panels, making it far easier to assemble than most wooden sheds. Clear instructions and a full set of fixings are included. The modular design also allows customisation of door placements to match your precise requirements.

Professional installation service is available as an optional upgrade if you prefer not to assemble the shed yourself.
