Distinguished by its security-aware design and sturdy construction, the Traditional Apex Security Wooden Garden Shed in the dimensions of 8′ x 6′ (2.44 x 1.83m) serves as an excellent storage solution for valuable gardening tools, bicycles, and outdoor furnishings. Crafted from 12mm tongue and groove cladding, supported by a robust 38mm x 50mm frame, this wooden security shed is built to withstand the test of time. The floor and apex roof are also composed of high-quality 12mm tongue and groove material, with the roof further protected by a felt covering to ward off rain. Its elegant smooth-planed finish not only ensures durability and weather resistance but also presents a visually appealing appearance.

Entry to the garden shed is facilitated through a fully-framed, ledged, and braced single door equipped with zinc fittings and a security bolted padlock protector (padlock not included) to ensure the safety of expensive tools and bicycles. Additionally, to maintain a vigilant security posture, the strip of small windows is strategically positioned high on the side of the structure to discourage unwanted attention.

Measuring at 2475mm x 2440mm x 1830mm and accompanied by a reliable 1-year parts guarantee, this premium security shed is dip-treated and requires re-treatment within 6 weeks of assembly and subsequently on an annual basis to preserve its attractive appearance.

For those seeking enhanced durability, an upgrade to pressure-treated timber is recommended, extending the anti-rot guarantee to an impressive 15 years. Furthermore, with this upgrade, the cladding thickness will be increased to 15mm at no extra cost. It is essential to note that even pressure-treated timber will need waterproofing post-assembly and annually thereafter.

Optional enhancements such as bookcase shelving, a double-door cupboard, security cupboard, and top racking with shelving are available, all crafted from premium timber. Please be advised that only one of these shed furniture items can be selected. The bookcase shelving snugly fits into the garden building’s rear gable. The door cupboard comes with 3 galvanised hinges for each door, a mortice lock, an internal dividing shelf, and a work surface. The security cupboard also includes 3 galvanised hinges and mortice locks, along with 3 shelves and sufficient space for taller items, easily securable to the garden building’s floor.

Optional features extend to an extra-wide door, a stable-style door, various door positioning options, an opening window, windowless design, a Pro Shed Base Kit, and wooden floor bearers. Customers are encouraged to reach out to our customer service team for further information.

This premium wood shed is also available in different sizes, ranging from 6’x4′ to 12’x8′.

Delivery to most UK addresses is provided at no additional charge.

Kindly note that the specified measurements for cladding, floorboards, and framing are nominal (pre-machining), resulting in potential variances of ±1mm for cladding and floorboards and ±5mm for 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.
