The Mercia Overlap Apex Shed is designed for homeowners and gardeners seeking a secure and robust outdoor storage solution for tools and equipment. Its windowless design offers enhanced security and discretion for your belongings, while the apex roof accommodates taller items. A key benefit is its durable, weather-resistant construction from FSC certified timber, though annual re-treatment is required to maintain the 10-year anti-rot guarantee.

The shed is designed to be weather-resistant, with overlap cladding to shed rainwater and roofing felt for protection. However, like all timber sheds, maintaining its weatherproofing requires proper assembly and annual re-treatment with a timber preservative.
Yes, it is crucial to install the shed on a flat, level, and firm base such as a concrete slab, paving slabs, or a dedicated timber shed base. This ensures stability, proper drainage, and prolongs the life of the shed.
The 10-year anti-rot guarantee covers the timber against fungal decay. This guarantee is conditional upon the shed being annually re-treated with a suitable timber preservative to ensure its ongoing protection.
Assembly time can vary depending on experience, but with two people, it typically takes a few hours to a full day. All necessary fixtures, fittings, and instructions are included to facilitate the process.
The shed is designed as a windowless unit for enhanced security and discretion. While it might be technically possible to modify it, this would involve cutting into the structural panels and could compromise the shed's integrity, weatherproofing, and potentially void the warranty. It is not recommended.
You should use a high-quality, oil-based or water-based timber preservative specifically designed for outdoor timber structures. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for the preservative product. Applying it annually will help maintain the shed's anti-rot protection.
Check the roofing felt for any tears or gaps, ensuring it's properly laid and sealed. Inspect overlap cladding for any warped or misaligned boards and re-secure if necessary. Ensure the shed is built on a level base to prevent water pooling around the bottom.
Verify the shed is built on a perfectly level foundation; an uneven base can cause the frame to twist, affecting door alignment. Check door hinges for tightness and apply a lubricant if stiff. Adjust hinges if they allow for it.
Confirm if the shed has been re-treated annually with a suitable timber preservative, as this is a condition for the anti-rot guarantee. Ensure good ventilation around the shed and that no vegetation is directly touching the timber, which can trap moisture.
This shed is designed for general outdoor storage of garden tools, equipment, outdoor furniture, and other items requiring protection from weather and enhanced security. Its dimensions (4 x 6ft) make it suitable for smaller to medium-sized gardens.
