Detailed Specification

Please note: all imperial measurements are approximate and Mercia garden buildings are made from metric measurements.

Description

From mucky bicycles to paint tins, there always seem to be items that homeowners would rather not keep in the house. The 10 x 10 Mercia Overlap Shed is an ideal place to store these kinds of items, due to its generously sized footprint and a set of wide double doors that allow easy access. Beyond this use as a storage space, the Mercia Overlap Shed lives up to its name in offering the owner a comfortable spot to work on DIY projects, thanks to its ample headroom and airy ambience. It is rare to see this flexibility in an affordable price range, which is why it is no surprise that the 10 x 10 Mercia Overlap Shed has become one of the most popular garden buildings in elbec's range.

Features

Many different aspects come together to make this Mercia the ideal space for storage use. 7mm timber overlap cladding is used for the walls of the, which has a traditional shed look while offering some much-needed protection from the elements. An internal framing with 28mm x 28mm timber gives this cladding and the rest of the garden building plenty of support.

The high-quality timber used in these walls is FSC certified, meaning it is only sourced from sustainable forests, and is dip-treated for a good level of shielding from rot in its early life (during transit and assembly). Once your is standing in your garden, elbec always recommends protecting the timber further with a wood preservative. Those in the Protek range are a popular and reputable choice, and can be added when ordering through elbec.

One of elbec's favourite features of this shed is a set of ledged and braced double doors, which provide a highly effective way to open up your shed when transporting large items like lawnmowers or wheelbarrows. The reinforced strength of ledged and braced doors is perfect for security purposes if you aim to add a lock to your shed's doors.

With the addition of a workbench, the 10 x 10 Mercia Overlap Shed can be easily transformed into a cozy workspace for DIY projects. This is aided by the inclusion of four fixed styrene windows that fill the shed with light on sunny days, making the interior a comfortable place to work. A 7'4" height to the ridge gives almost all users the room to stand up straight inside.

Solid sheet board, a similar composite material to plywood but with an improved shear strength, is used in both the floor and roof of the 10 x 10 Mercia Overlap Shed for its rugged durability and resistance to the ingress of water. The solid sheet board roof is also felted for added protection against the elements.

Additional Information

Your 10 x 10 Mercia Overlap Shed will be delivered disassembled, with every part and fixture needed to complete the garden building at home. elbec suggests that you allow a full afternoon or two for the assembling of your shed, and that you acquire the help of an extra pair of hands. Those with little DIY experience should rest assured that the product comes with a detailed and clear instruction manual.

As the timber in this shed has received a dip treatment, it will already have some resistance to the elements, but will need immediate further treatment upon assembling the shed. Make sure to read the full details of the 10-year anti-rot warranty offered by Mercia so that you are fully aware of what care your garden building needs to receive in order for the warranty to stay valid.

Upon Delivery

Your order is delivered either kerbside or driveway and will be delivered on either a 3.5T, 7.5T or 18T Lorry. Unfortunately due to health and safety and insurance liabilities the driver will not be able to take your goods around to the back of your property but may upon request place the product at the side of the house if there are no access or restriction issues. We would not risk damaging your property whilst delivering a product to an unsafe location. Unfortunately, we will not be able to go through your property.

We would recommend against arranging for a third party to install the building before it's been delivered and checked that all parts are present, as we cannot be held liable for any third-party costs.

Depending on the installation option for your order, you will be contacted within the delivery timescale and given a date for either delivery/assembly on the same date or a separate date for delivery and assembly.
