Shedstore
£2159.00

This top-of-the-line greenhouse, with its straightforward setup and advanced design that fosters plant growth, is widely regarded as an essential tool for gardeners. Built with a UV-protected green resin framework and innovative pin and lock connectors, this spacious 8×16 greenhouse incorporates rubber seals for improved insulation and a reinforcement cable for added structural strength. Featuring light-diffusing 4mm twin-wall polycarbonate roof panels and robust 6mm twin-wall polycarbonate side panels, this greenhouse offers an impressive 82% light transmission.

The polycarbonate panels are UV-protected, ensuring an optimal temperature by enhancing thermal insulation and reducing intense sunlight exposure. This guarantees ideal growing conditions for plants, shields gardeners from harmful UV rays, and prevents panel discoloration or fading under the sun. The sloped barn-style roof design increases headroom and facilitates efficient rainwater drainage.

Crafted to be shatterproof, impact-resistant, and nearly indestructible, this polycarbonate greenhouse can withstand winds up to 90km/hr (56ml/hr) and snow loads of up to 75kg/m² (15.4lbs/ft²), providing exceptional weatherproof protection for both plants and garden tools.

Convenient access is granted through wide double doors equipped with handle holders to ensure secure closure and maximum weather resistance. Additionally, the greenhouse includes three manually-operated roof vents for regulating temperature, benefiting plants and gardeners alike.

Sold with an impressive 7-year limited warranty and requiring zero maintenance, this attractive greenhouse is incredibly easy to assemble without the need for tools. Being floorless, it must be anchored to a sturdy, level foundation.

Available in various sizes, this greenhouse can be paired with a portable fan greenhouse heater featuring a digital thermostat for added convenience. Delivery is complimentary to most addresses within the UK.

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.
