Product Information

Full details

The Rowlinson 4x6 Shiplap Apex Shed is designed for homeowners seeking a durable and attractive outdoor storage solution. Its key benefit lies in its robust construction, utilizing prime grade 12mm shiplap cladding and pressure treatment for long-lasting protection against the elements and rot. A potential caveat is its natural timber finish, requiring painting or staining to match your garden aesthetic, which adds an extra step post-installation. This shed offers ample storage space with an apex roof for increased headroom and features double doors for easy access.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary material used for the cladding?

The shed features prime grade 12mm kiln-dried tongue and groove shiplap cladding.

Does the shed come pre-painted?

No, the shed comes in a natural timber finish and is ready to be painted or stained to your preference.

What is the guarantee period against rot?

The shed comes with a 15-year guarantee against rot, subject to terms and conditions.

What are the internal dimensions?

The product information provides external dimensions (H:220.0 x W:194.0 x D:127.0 cm). Internal dimensions will be slightly smaller due to the framing and cladding thickness.

Is the floor made of solid timber?

No, the floor is constructed from construction grade OSB, chosen for its stability and resistance to warping.

How is the shed secured?

The shed features a heavy-duty pad bolt for security. A padlock is not included but can be added for enhanced security.

What type of roofing material is used?

The shed is topped with premium grade mineral roofing felt for effective weather protection.

Troubleshooting

Shed doors are difficult to close or stick.

Check that the shed is level and the frame is not distorted. Ensure hinges are correctly aligned and tightened. You may need to slightly adjust the door catch or hinges.

Water ingress after heavy rain.

Inspect the shiplap joints for any gaps and ensure the roofing felt is intact and properly sealed. Check the base for evenness to prevent water pooling.

Wood appears to be swelling or shrinking.

This is natural timber movement. Ensure fixings are not overtightened, which can exacerbate movement. The OSB floor and roof are designed to minimize this.

Pad bolt feels loose or difficult to operate.

Check that the screws securing the bolt mechanism are tight. Ensure there is no obstruction preventing the bolt from sliding smoothly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction with high-quality shiplap cladding.
  • Pressure-treated timber offers excellent rot resistance and a long guarantee.
  • Apex roof provides valuable extra headroom.
  • Double doors ensure easy access for bulky items.
  • Sturdy OSB floor and roof prevent warping.
  • Can be customized with paint or stain to match garden decor.

Cons

  • Requires painting or staining for aesthetic matching and added protection.
  • Assembly may require two people due to its size.
  • OSB roof and floor may be less durable than solid timber in very extreme conditions.
  • Relies on a pad bolt for security; a padlock may be required for higher security needs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the shed is assembled on a firm, level base, such as concrete, paving slabs, or a dedicated shed base kit. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, paying attention to the order of assembly for panels and roof sections. The included heavy-duty pad bolt should be used to secure the doors.

Compatibility: This shed is designed as a standalone unit. Ensure adequate space around the shed for assembly and future maintenance. It is compatible with most standard garden environments.

Care: The timber is pressure-treated against rot. However, for maximum longevity and to maintain its appearance, it is recommended to treat the exterior annually with a suitable wood preservative, stain, or paint. Regularly check the roofing felt for any damage and clear any debris that may accumulate on the roof or around the base to ensure proper drainage.
