Detailed Specification

Please note: all measurements are approximate and the Shire garden buildings are made from metric measurements.

Description

Manufactured in the UK, Shire's garden sheds are renowned for their quality and probably manufacture the best value for money wooden storage sheds in the UK today. The Shire Tall Store is great for those that want extra storage space but without taking up too much garden space. All the timber is from sustainable sources, so that you can feel good about buying this storage shed. Shire garden storage buildings are made from a high grade ship-lap tongue and groove construction. This is distinguished from fast grown type timber used on cheaper sheds from other manufactures. Tongue and groove construction means the building is better sealed from the elements. The timber used is a continental slow grown timber. Slower grown timber means tighter grain, extra strength and longer life.

Framework: A robust planed 34x34mm (1 1/2' x 1 1/2') framework (walls and floor) that gives the building strength.

Floor: The floor is constructed from Oriented Strand Board (OSB).

Roof: The roof is constructed from Oriented Strand Board (OSB) with included roofing felt.

Walls: The walls are constructed using high quality thick softwood planed tongue and groove shiplap pattern boarding.

Door: Single Door ledged for extra strength.

Treatment: All Shire garden buildings are supplied pre-treated with a base coat to both sides in a golden brown water based industrial product (colour can vary from the picture shown). Shire the manufacturer recommends that you apply a water based top coat of your choice. This will protect the timber from weathering on your shed making it last longer and will need to be repeated accordingly in relation to the manufacturer's instructions.

Supplied flat packed for ease of handling and assembly. All fittings and felt are included in the price with clear easy to follow instructions.
