Detailed Specification

Please note: all measurements are approximate and the Shire garden buildings are made from metric measurements. We would recommend that the base is at least 50mm bigger in each direction.

Description

When garden space is at a premium, and storage space is needed, the attractive and reliable 4 x 6 Overlap Shed is the perfect way to extend your garden storage making the most of compact space. This 4 x 6 overlap shed is better than the average overlap. It may well be low in price but you will find for example not just double doors but hidden features such as supporting rails top and bottom on the inside of each wall , not just on the top like some others on the market.

This protected design allows maximum use of space with a double door placed on the long 6ft side.

Top grade timber is used throughout, sourced exclusively from Scandinavia and Siberia where the best timber for sheds is produced. The timber is tight grained producing less sap and is therefore a more durable timber than the faster growing timber used by other shed manufacturers.

Walls - The overlap construction allows efficient run off of water and helps keep the shed nice and dry inside.

Door - A hasp and staple (padlock not supplied).

Roof and Floor - The roof and floor of the shed are constructed from water resistant Oriented Strand board (OSB) with has similar properties to plywood. OSB is a high quality 'Solid Sheet Board'.  The shed floor also comes with floor joists giving the shed a solid sturdy feel and greater load capacity.

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.
