Our standard range of apex garden sheds go up to 10' x 6' or 3m x 1.8m For apex roofed sheds larger than that please see the Large Apex Shed page.
Our standard apex garden sheds are available in either 12mm finished thickness cladding with 32mm x 45mm framework or as a heavy duty shed with 16mm finished thickness cladding and 38mm x 63mm thick framing. The floor on the heavy duty sheds is also upgraded to 16mm thick.
The doors are fitted with 3 "T" hinges which are bright zinc plated to protect against corrosion. The door is kept closed with a turn button, There is a 6" staple and hasp fitted to take your padlock.
If security is important we can upgrade the hinges to a continuous hinge instead. This type of hing is the full height of the door and has concealed screws. It's extremely difficult to get past and is probably th emost secure hinge you can get.
The windows are horticultural glass, not plastic. We don't use plastic because in our experience plastic can go brittle and opaque in a very short time. It can also go a nasty yellowcolour. Real Glass doen't do that.
The windows can be our standard 24" tall (60cm) windows,or, if security is a cosnsideration, we can put in 9" tall (22cm) slit windows at the top of the panel. If you would preferbwe can build your shed for you with no windows at all. The choice is yours.Another option is to ugrade to 6.4mm laminated glass for safety and security.
The internal heights are 6’ (1.83m) to the eves rising to a minimum of 77” (1.96m) internally at the apex – as the sheds get wider the apex gets taller. The roofs and floors are made from tongue and grove, the same quality timber as we use for the cladding. There is no chipboard used in the construction, it’s all natural timber.
The doors are 30” (760mm wide) and 5’10” (1.78m) tall or 26” (660mm) wide each if you require double doors. The number of windows fitted is variable dependent on how long the shed is and they are real glass, no plastic glazing is used as plastic ages to an opaque yellow over time.
All our sheds are given a basecoat treatment to give them a good start in life. This treatment in a preservative only, it does need a waterproof topcoat to be applied once installed or we can do that for you at our workshop prior to delivery. We recommend that an oil or spirit based treatment is used.
