The Wooden Garden Tool Storage Shed in the size of 5′ x 4′ (1.52 x 1.22m) is a practical solution for storing garden tools securely within reach. With its compact design, it fits well in almost any garden. The shed is crafted from 12mm tongue and groove cladding on a sturdy 38mm x 50mm frame, ensuring durability.

Both the floor and roof feature 12mm tongue and groove construction, with the roof additionally protected by a felt covering to resist rain. The shed is completed with a smooth-planed finish, combining robustness with an appealing look.

Accessing the shed is convenient through a single door equipped with zinc fittings and a key-operated lock for added security of valuable tools. The door can be installed on any side of the shed. The shed measures 1710mm x 1520mm x 1220mm and is backed by a 1-year parts guarantee.

For extended protection against rot, there is an option to upgrade to pressure-treated timber, increasing the guarantee to 15 years. In addition, with the upgrade, the cladding thickness is increased to 15mm for no extra cost. It’s important to note that even with pressure-treated timber, waterproofing is still necessary during assembly and yearly thereafter.

Aside from the 5’x4′ size, the shed is available in various other sizes from 5’x3′ to 10’x4′. An optional Pro Shed Base Kit can be added. Delivery to most UK addresses is free of charge.

Specifications such as cladding, floorboards, and framing dimensions are nominal (pre-machining), hence some variations may occur: plus or minus 1mm on cladding and floorboards, and plus or minus 5mm on framing.

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.
