This garden shed is built using quality tanalised pressure treated 12mm tongue and groove shiplap. The shiplap provides the extra protection and build quality that sub-standard over lap cladding can't.
The framing of the shed is 28x44 mm rounded and planed timber, which is far more sturdy and robust than most sheds. Each panel of the shed is fully framed and the shiplap cladding is double nailed for extra rigidity.
The roof and floor are made from 11mm sheet material. This board provides good strength, is moisture resistant and won't split. The floor is held off the ground with solid 28x38mm timber bearers, which provide a solid base. And the roof is waterproofed with 25kg green mineral felt.
The door provides good width for ease of access for larger items and is also built from same great quality 12mm shiplap and 28x44mm planed timber. The door is fastened with a turn button.
All our sheds and garden buildings are simple to construct and come with full and easy to read instructions and all the fixtures and fittings required.
