The Store More Sapphire Apex Metal Shed 8 x 8 (Anthracite) is a sturdy and long-lasting outdoor storage solution that provides excellent safeguarding for garden equipment, lawnmowers, and bicycles.

It features an apex roof and a sleek anthracite-paint finish, ensuring a stylish appearance. Additionally, this premium garden shed requires minimal maintenance, saving time and money. The shed’s sliding double-doors not only offer effortless access but also allow for placement in tight spaces, making it more versatile than sheds with traditional hinged doors. Ventilated gables inside create a pleasant working environment and optimal storage conditions. For security, the doors can be locked with a padlock (not included), and the windowless design adds an extra layer of protection. Measuring 191cm x 262cm x 242cm and backed by an impressive 15-year warranty from the manufacturer, this superior metal shed comes with pre-cut panels, pre-drilled holes, and user-friendly assembly instructions.

The Sapphire apex metal shed is available in various sizes and color options, including green and anthracite. Please be aware that a base is not included with this garden shed. You have the option to purchase a metal foundation kit separately, which can be filled with concrete or lined with wood to create an ideal shed floor/base.

Shed Base Options for Sapphire Sheds

All shed bases should be built on a level surface with a damp proof membrane. It is essential to anchor all Sapphire sheds to a solid base or surface. Hilti screws are available for purchase in the options tab. The Sapphire Metal Foundation Kit is a steel grid placed on top of the damp proof membrane. It can be filled with concrete or covered with suitable plywood (sold separately). The kit is designed specifically for Sapphire sheds and comes with straightforward assembly instructions. If there is an existing concrete or slab base, a kit may not be necessary, but it’s recommended to have a damp proof membrane to reduce condensation.

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.
