FAQs

What type of timber is used for the cladding?

The shed is built from high grade, slow grown Scandinavian kiln dried timber with overlap cladding.

Can the door be hung on either side?

Yes, the single door is designed to be hung on either the left or right side to suit your preference and garden layout.

What is the base frame made of?

The shed comes with a 34x34mm pressure-treated base frame for added durability and stability.

Does the shed come pre-painted?

No, the shed is dip-treated with a base coat preservative and is ready for immediate top coating after assembly.

What is the roof made of?

The roof is constructed from solid 8mm OSB and is supplied with mineral felt for weather protection.

What is included in the package?

All fixings, mineral roof felt, and clear assembly instructions are included.

Is this shed suitable for storing heavy items?

While the shed is designed for general garden storage, the solid roof and pressure-treated base provide good structural integrity for typical garden items. For very heavy items, ensure they are placed centrally over the base frame.

Troubleshooting

Shed panels do not align correctly

Ensure the base is perfectly level and that you are following the assembly instructions precisely. Loosen fixings slightly on adjacent panels to allow for adjustment before fully tightening.

Door is difficult to open or close

Check that the door frame is square and that no cladding panels are obstructing its movement. Adjust hinges if necessary or ensure the floor surface beneath the door is clear.

Roof felt is not sitting flat

Ensure the OSB roof boards are securely fixed and flat before applying the felt. If necessary, use additional felt tacks to secure any loose edges.

Shed leaks water

Inspect the roof felt for tears or gaps. Check the seal where the roof meets the walls and around the door. Ensure the topcoat has been applied effectively to all exterior surfaces.
