The 12′ x 6′ Classic Apex Wooden Security Garden Shed (3.66m x 1.83m) is a robust shed that is perfect for safeguarding valuable gardening gear, bikes, and outdoor furniture. Crafted from 12mm tongue and groove panels on a sturdy 38mm x 50mm framework, this wooden security shed is designed to endure. The floor and apex roof are also made from high-quality 12mm tongue and groove panels and the roof is topped with weather-resistant felt to keep rain out. Not only is this shed durable, secure, and weatherproof, but it also has a stylish traditional appearance.

Access the garden shed through a fully-framed, ledged, and braced door equipped with zinc bolted hinges and a security pad-bolt protector (padlock not included) to ensure the safety of your tools and bikes. For added security, the small toughened-glass windows are strategically placed high on the side of the shed to deter potential intruders. The number of windows will vary based on the chosen door position.

This storage shed comes with a reassuring 1-year parts guarantee (excluding roof felt) and has been dip treated. It is recommended to re-treat the shed within 6 weeks of assembly and then annually to protect the wood from rot and preserve its appearance. Consider upgrading to pressure-treated timber to extend the anti-rot guarantee to 15 years. With the upgrade, the cladding will be increased to a thicker 15mm for free. Please note that the pressure-treated timber still needs waterproofing after assembly and annually thereafter

This premium security shed is available in various sizes, and optional upgrades include an extra-wide door, a stable-style door, double doors, additional doors, doors in different positions, conversion of fixed windows to opening windows, no windows, a Pro Shed Base Set, wooden floor bearers, and the pressure-treated timber upgrade. Contact our customer service team for more information.

It is important to note that the measurements for cladding, floorboards, and framing are nominal (pre-machining). As a result, there may be a variance of +/- 1mm on cladding and floorboards and +/- 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.
