£1264.00

The Oren 12′ x 8′ Ship-shape Customizable Pentagonal Abode is engineered for effortless assembly. This dwelling can be tailored to your liking, giving you the freedom to situate the entrances and apertures in any location, making it suitable for any yard. All Oren Abodes are crafted from 12mm hefty ship-lap tongue and groove wood encompassing the base and top to provide added sturdiness and resilience. The robust framework of this structure is curved at each edge, bestowing it with a remarkable appearance. This abode is equipped with tempered safety glass by default, coupled with a Superior High Efficiency Felt featuring a distinct polyester lining, ensuring its prolonged longevity and resistance to wrinkling or tearing. The range of customized abode choices includes a window-free version and a double door enhancement. Refer to the ‘personalize & purchase’ section for further information.

Tongue and groove composition is consistent throughout All Oren abodes are constructed from 12mm robust ship-lap tongue and groove wood. The base and top are also constructed with 12mm tongue and groove for additional sturdiness and durability. The ship-lap cladding features a small ridge at the apex of each panel. This thin channel enables water to drip off the abode faster than traditional tongue and groove. This expedited drying process after rainfall helps safeguard the abode from potential water damage.

Tempered glass Every Oren abode with windows is furnished with tempered safety glass as standard. The tempering procedure reinforces the structural robustness and thermal resistance of the glass, subsequently augmenting its resilience and ability to endure heat. Tempered glass is 500% more resilient to heat and impact than conventional glass. The glass is already internally beaded, eliminating the need for self-installation, while PVC ledges finalize the window units to prevent water infiltration and provide an exquisite touch.

Galvanized ironmongery All Oren abodes are outfitted with galvanized hinges, latch mechanisms, and door handles to enhance longevity and diminish corrosion. Galvanization involves applying a protective zinc coating to shield against rust and other forms of deterioration.

Superior High Efficiency Felt The abode comes complete with a top-performing waterproof felt featuring a unique ‘polyester’ lining to ensure durability and resilience against wrinkling or tearing. The felt is impregnated with a weatherproof bitumen (asphalt) layer that repels water while allowing the material to breathe, safeguarding it from the elements.

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.
