Built with durable 12mm shiplap cladding, a robust OSB sheet apex roof, and a tongue and groove floor, this shed is designed for lasting protection. Double doors provide easy access, while two mortise and tenon opening, storm-resistant windows add light and ventilation. Pre-treated with a preservative base coat, it's ready for your chosen topcoat after assembly. Always allow for roof overhang and external access during construction and any post-assembly treatment. For accurate dimensions, refer to the metric measurements, imperial figures are rounded estimates. The modular nature of the Shire Guernsey shed allows each individual piece to be taken through a standard pedestrian door (78 inches or 1.9m tall), making the shed ideal for mid-terrace houses with a need for lots of garden storage. Modular buildings also allow the windowed side panel to be placed in a number of different positions and on either side of the shed to take advantage of the available light in your garden. The wall panels are constructed of tongue and groove cladding and supplied in modular sections. The main advantage of a modular design is that each individual panel will be small enough (in one or both dimensions) to be carried by one person and will fit through a standard pedestrian door. As a consequence the individual boards may not line up perfectly with those on adjacent panels, due to the variances in the natural timber cladding. The walls and floor are made from tongue and groove and the roof panels will be a solid sheet OSB. Mineralized roofing felt is supplied as standard, along with instructions and all the fixtures and fittings required to install the shed.
This guide provides essential information for owners of the Shire Guernsey 7 x 10ft Double Door Apex Shed. Ideal for homeowners needing ample garden storage, this shed offers a spacious interior and durable construction. Note that while the modular design facilitates easy assembly, minor variations in panel alignment may occur due to the natural timber cladding.
