Product Information
Full details
This Powersheds 8x6 Storage Shed is ideal for homeowners seeking a durable and spacious outdoor storage solution. Its key benefit is the extra-wide, 1.5m opening doors, simplifying the storage of large garden equipment. A minor caveat is that the dip-treatment offers 12 months of protection, requiring re-treatment thereafter. The shed is constructed from high-grade, responsibly sourced timber, featuring a wax-enriched dip-treatment for protection, heavy-duty framing, shiplap tongue and groove construction, and waterproof felt roofing.

Troubleshooting
Shed door is difficult to close or open
Check if the shed base is level. Minor adjustments to the door hinges might be necessary if the timber has settled unevenly. Ensure no obstructions are present.
Water ingress into the shed
Inspect the roof felt for any tears or damage and repair or replace as needed. Ensure all joints and seams are properly sealed. Check the floor for gaps.
Shed feels unstable
Verify that the shed is assembled on a perfectly level and solid base. Ensure all wall panels are securely fastened, especially the corner bracing.
Timber appears faded or dry
This indicates the need for re-treatment. Reapply a suitable wood preservative or stain as per the product instructions, especially after the initial 12-month protection period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: It is crucial to assemble the shed on a firm, level, and solid base, such as concrete or paving slabs, to ensure stability and longevity. Follow the provided assembly manual carefully, ensuring all panels are correctly aligned and secured. The extra-wide doors may require two people for easier handling during assembly.
Compatibility: This shed is designed for outdoor garden use. Ensure the chosen location has adequate space for the external dimensions (L 2526 x W 1908mm) and allows for door operation.
Care: The initial dip-treatment provides 12 months of protection. After this period, it is recommended to re-apply a suitable wood preservative or stain to maintain the timber's condition and weather resistance. Regularly check for any signs of wear, such as loose fittings or damaged felt, and address them promptly. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners.
