Highwood Life Span 6′ x 8′ Pressure Treated Overlap Lean-To Apex Shed

Sheds.co.uk
£659.00

The Highwood Life Span 6′ x 8′ Pressure Treated Overlap Lean-To Apex Shed is sturdy and shielded. Perfect for when extra room is needed to store large items like wheelbarrows that benefit from protection but don’t require placement inside the shed. It measures 8ft in depth, providing an inherent Lean To that also serves as a great log store. This Lean To can be set up on either side of your Apex Shed to match your garden’s layout.

This wooden shed comes with an upgraded design, featuring fully replaceable panels. It arrives in smaller sections for easier setup, providing more wood for a more adaptable arrangement and a notably stronger shed. Overall, the Highwood Life Span sheds are the finest overlap sheds we have ever manufactured.

Supported by framing that is 30% thicker than the standard in most wooden sheds, this 6×8 shed with lean-to is constructed using straight-edged 7mm boards that overlap for flexibility, accommodating the natural wood movement throughout seasons and aiding in rainwater drainage. The shed is treated with pressure, offering a 25-year anti-rot warranty, sparing you from upkeep as no preservative treatment is ever needed! This Life Span Shed ensures a long-lasting solution for all your storage requirements.

In contrast to the common OSB (oriented strand board), this backyard shed features a robust timber floor, allowing for the storage of heavier items. The apex shed’s roof is made of durable 8mm solid sheet material, topped with green mineral felt for complete weather resistance.

The entrance of this 6×8 shed is equipped with a double-Z frame, boosting its strength and preventing sagging. Security is increased with concealed hinges and a strong hasp and staple latch prepared for a padlock (padlock not included). Additionally, the door can be fitted to swing left or right based on your preference. The shed is equipped with shatter-resistant PET glazing, which is more secure than standard glass and maintains clarity over time.

Showcasing a traditional apex roof, sleek barge boards, and a diamond-shaped finial, this wooden shed with lean-to brings a touch of sophistication to any garden. Handcrafted in the UK from certified sustainable timber, this garden structure includes a complete set of fixings and clear instructions for a trouble-free setup. It is advisable to construct the Lean To simultaneously with the shed.

This shed is delivered free of charge to most UK addresses, using Highwood Garden’s Premium Delivery Service, ensuring that it is positioned in your garden as per your instruction, with all packaging materials removed.

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.
