Product Information
Full details
The Shire Jersey Shed 13x7 is designed for homeowners needing robust, spacious, and easily accessible garden storage. Its primary benefit is the generous 13x7 footprint combined with wide double doors, making it simple to store and retrieve large items like ride-on mowers or bicycles. A potential caveat is its size, requiring adequate garden space for placement and access. Key features include pressure-treated timber for longevity, 12mm shiplap tongue and groove cladding, a sturdy 12mm tongue and groove floor, and a durable mineral felt roof.

FAQs
What is the advantage of pressure-treated wood?
Pressure-treated wood is infused with preservatives under pressure, making it highly resistant to rot, fungal decay, and insect infestation, which significantly extends its lifespan and reduces maintenance.
Do I need to treat the wood further after purchase?
While the pressure treatment provides excellent protection, applying a spirit-based preservative or a specific shed treatment annually can offer additional protection and maintain the wood's appearance.
What type of base is recommended for this shed?
A solid, level base is essential. Concrete slabs, paving flags, or a well-constructed timber frame base are recommended to ensure stability and longevity.
Can I assemble this shed by myself?
Due to its size and weight, assembly is recommended to be done with at least two people for safety and ease.
What are the dimensions of the double doors?
The product description does not specify exact door dimensions, but they are designed to be wide enough for easy access of large items like ride-on mowers.
How is the shed secured?
The shed comes with a padbolt on the double doors for basic security. You may wish to add a padlock for enhanced security.
Troubleshooting
Doors are difficult to open or close
Check if the shed is level and square on its base. Ensure hinges are not obstructed and adjust door alignment if necessary.
Water ingress after heavy rain
Inspect the roof felt for any tears or damage. Check the seals around the doors and walls for gaps. Ensure the base is adequately drained.
Wood appears to be warping or cracking
Ensure the shed is on a level base. For minor cracks, apply wood filler. If significant warping occurs, check for structural issues or excessive moisture.
Padbolt is stiff or difficult to secure
Lubricate the padbolt mechanism with a graphite-based lubricant. Ensure the door and frame are properly aligned when closing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Ensure the shed is erected on a solid, level base, such as concrete or paving slabs, to prevent distortion and ensure stability. Assemble the shed on a dry day following the manufacturer's instructions carefully. The double doors require precise alignment during setup for smooth operation.
Compatibility: This shed is a standalone structure and does not require specific external systems. Ensure sufficient ground clearance around the shed for maintenance and ventilation.
Care: Regularly inspect the shed for any signs of wear, particularly around the roof felt and door hinges. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth as needed; avoid abrasive cleaners. The pressure treatment offers long-term protection, but an occasional reapplication of a suitable wood preservative can extend its life further, especially on exposed edges.
