8′ x 8′ Traditional Shiplap Pent Security Wooden Garden Shed (2.44m x 2.44m)
Overview
This 8′ x 8′ security shed from the Traditional range combines a generous square footprint with a reinforced build, suited to bikes, tools and machinery worth properly protecting. It gives peace of mind without the premium price tag of a dedicated steel security building. The pent roof keeps the profile low, which suits gardens where a tall apex roofline would not sit comfortably.
For a smaller security shed in the same pent-roof range, see the 8×6 Shiplap Pent Security shed.

- 8′ x 8′ (2.44m x 2.44m) square footprint

Roof Types
A single-slope pent roof keeps this shed’s overall height lower than an apex equivalent, shedding rain off quickly to one side. That lower profile suits gardens where a boundary fence or hedge limits how tall the shed can comfortably sit.
Dimensions
- Overall width: 8′ (2.44m)
- Overall depth: 8′ (2.44m)
- Roof style: pent (single slope)
- Wall cladding: shiplap tongue and groove timber
Construction
Shiplap boards overlap along a reinforced timber frame, giving a tighter, more weatherproof fit than plain overlap cladding. The security-grade frame is built to resist the kind of forced entry attempts a standard, lighter-framed shed would not withstand as well over time, with thicker timber sections used throughout the build.
Treatment & Guarantee
The timber leaves the factory with a base coat of preservative for protection before assembly. Once built, apply a quality timber treatment or shed paint, reapplied every year or two, to keep the wood performing well.
Doors & Windows / Security
A single front door is fitted with a reinforced frame and a robust locking point, the main feature of this security-focused range. For a wider security shed with the same reinforced fittings, see the 12×8 Shiplap Pent Security shed. The reinforced door frame also accepts an additional padlock or hasp if extra security is wanted.
Assembly Information
Supplied as a flat-pack kit of pre-cut panels, assembly typically takes a weekend with two people, basic hand tools and the included instructions.
Delivery Information
Delivery is made by pallet carrier to the nearest accessible point at your property, usually the driveway or kerb. Please arrange help to move the pack into the garden from there.
Optional Upgrades
Additional internal shelving or extra security fittings may be available. Contact our sales team before ordering to check current options for this model.
