Security is bolstered by hidden hinges and a padlock-ready hasp and staple latch for safeguarding your belongings. The door can be installed for either left or right-hand opening, offering flexibility. Shatterproof PET glazing provides a safer alternative to glass, resisting yellowing and fading over time. With its classic pent roof, smooth-planed barge boards, and decorative diamond finial, this shed adds a touch of style to any garden. Handcrafted in the UK from FSC-certified timber, it comes with all necessary fixings and clear assembly instructions. Forest Garden's White Glove Delivery Service is also available for convenient delivery to most UK addresses, including packaging removal.
