The Redlands 4′ x 8′ Dual Door Shiplap Modular Apex Security Shed, featuring secure slim windows, is perfect for placement in allotments or in secluded spots like the far end of your yard or near a walkway. This versatile structure allows for customizable door and window placement. Its modular design allows panels to be installed on any side and in any configuration to suit your needs. The dual doors can be hung on either side, with the option for right or left hinge, and come equipped with a reliable lock, key, and turn button for enhanced security. The shed boasts extra-tall eaves for ample headroom inside. It is elevated on floor joists to prevent access from beneath while maintaining a secure enclosure. This variation of the 4′ x 8′ Dual Door Shiplap Modular Apex Security Shed is outfitted with two fixed toughened glass slim windows that offer natural light without compromising security. Crafted from durable 12mm shiplap timber treated with a distinctive water-based finish, this shed features a solid 12mm tongue & groove floor and roof, with mineral felt roofing for added weather resistance. The timber used in production is sustainably sourced and certified. The product comes with a 10-year guarantee from Redlands Garden Buildings, safeguarding against general timber decay but not against natural warping or splitting. Please keep in mind that proper assembly on a stable, level base and post-assembly treatment with a high-quality preservative are essential to maintain the shed’s longevity.

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.
