Treatment & Guarantee

The shed comes dip-treated as standard and includes a 1-year parts guarantee. You should re-treat the timber within 6 weeks of assembly and annually thereafter to maintain its appearance and weather resistance.

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

Doors & Windows

Access is provided via a fully-framed, ledged and braced single door with zinc fittings. The door can be secured with a security bolted padlock protector, keeping your valuable tools and equipment completely safe. The small strip of windows is positioned high on the side of the structure to provide light whilst deterring unwanted attention.

Optional Upgrades

Several optional upgrades are available to enhance your garden shed:

• Bookcase shelving (fits into the rear gable)
• Double-door cupboard with mortice lock, internal dividing shelf, and work surface
• Security cupboard with mortice locks, 3 shelves, and tall item storage
• Top racking with shelving
• Extra-wide door
