If you have a passion for gardening, then the Loxley 6′ x 12′ Shiplap Apex Potting Shed is an excellent choice. This shed comes with 8 expertly crafted opening windows that provide abundant sunlight and fresh air, creating a perfect environment for gardening or pursuing hobbies. Featuring a double door secured with a pad bolt, this shed offers both convenience and security. Constructed from 12mm shiplap cladding supported by a robust 34mm frame, the building includes tongue and groove boards on the roof and floor, with the roof protected by mineral felt to guard against moisture. The wood materials are sustainably harvested and certified for their quality. Displayed in a charming honey-brown dip-treated finish, our garden structures are initially coated with a water-based timber shield. To maintain the 10-year anti-rot warranty, it is essential to apply a premium alcohol-based wood preservative before or immediately after setting up the shed. Regularly applying this preservative as per the manufacturer’s instructions will keep the wood protected from harsh weather conditions. Please review the Terms and Conditions for further information.

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.
