Crafted for effortless assembly, the Oren 18′ x 8′ Shiplap Custom Apex Security Shed provides top-notch safeguarding for your gardening equipment and belongings. Equipped with security slit windows and a pre-installed high security 5-pin cylinder lock, this shed boasts customizable features, allowing you to position the doors and windows to suit your garden layout. Constructed from robust 12mm thick shiplap tongue and groove timber for unmatched strength and resilience, including the floor and roof, this structure features sleek rounded corners on its heavy-duty framing. Additionally, it is furnished with toughened safety glass and a Premium High Performance Felt with a specialized polyester backing for extended durability and enhanced protection against the elements. The customization option includes an upgrade to double doors. Explore the ‘customize & purchase’ section for further details.

Tongue and Groove Construction:
All Oren sheds utilize 12mm thick shiplap tongue and groove timber throughout, including the floor and roof, ensuring superior robustness and longevity. The shiplap cladding features a small profile at the top of each board, facilitating quicker water runoff and faster drying post-rain exposure, thus safeguarding against water-related damage.

Toughened Glass:
Any Oren shed with windows is fitted with toughened safety glass as a standard provision. The toughening process enhances the glass’s structural durability and thermal resilience, substantially bolstering its resistance to heat by 500% compared to standard glass. The internally beaded toughened glass comes with PVC sills to prevent water ingress and deliver a refined finish.

Galvanised Ironmongery:
All Oren sheds are supplied with galvanised hinges, turn buttons, and door pulls, ensuring prolonged structural integrity and minimal oxidation. Galvanising involves applying a protective zinc layer to shield the ironmongery against rust and other forms of deterioration.

Premium High Performance Felt:
Complementing the shed is a high-quality waterproof felt embedded with a specialized ‘polyester’ backing, extending its lifespan and resistance to tearing and rippling. The felt is saturated with bitumen (asphalt), a water-repelling substance that also facilitates breathability, safeguarding against water intrusion.

FAQs

The size of the shed depends on what you plan to store or use it for. Measure the items you plan to store and consider any additional space for moving around or future storage needs. Common sizes range from small (6×8 feet) for basic storage to large (12×24 feet) for workshops or extensive storage.
Sheds are typically made from wood, metal, or plastic. Wood is aesthetically pleasing and customizable but requires more maintenance. Metal sheds are durable and secure but can be prone to rust. Plastic sheds are low-maintenance and easy to assemble but may not be as sturdy as wood or metal.

Permit requirements vary by location. Check with your local building department or zoning office. Typically, small sheds (under 120 square feet) may not require a permit, but larger ones or those with electrical installations often do.

A solid foundation is crucial for stability and longevity. Options include concrete slabs, gravel bases, or wooden platforms. Choose a foundation based on your shed’s size, material, and the ground conditions of your site.
Look for sheds with features like weather-resistant materials, proper sealing, and robust construction. Ensure the shed has a good roof overhang, proper drainage, and secure locking mechanisms to protect against theft and weather damage.
Assembly time depends on the size and complexity of the shed. Small, simple sheds can be assembled in a few hours, while larger or more complex sheds may take a full day or more. Professional installation is also an option for those who prefer not to DIY.
Maintenance depends on the material. Wooden sheds need periodic painting or staining and checking for rot or pests. Metal sheds may need rust prevention treatments. Plastic sheds require minimal maintenance, typically just cleaning as needed.
Moving a shed is possible but can be challenging, especially for larger structures. It’s easier to move a smaller shed if it has a solid base. Consider the logistics and potential costs of moving before installation. If moving is likely, a portable shed might be a better option.
Many sheds come with detailed assembly instructions, making them suitable for DIY installation, especially smaller models. However, larger or more complex sheds may require professional installation to ensure they are properly and safely assembled. Assess your skill level, available tools, and the complexity of the shed before deciding.
