Rowlinson 8x6ft Shiplap Apex Garden Shed Single Door

The Rowlinson 8x6ft Apex Shed with a single door is a spacious and reliable storage solution for your garden. With a generous 7.8m³ of internal space, it’s ideal for storing tools, lawnmowers, garden furniture, or even setting up a compact workshop or potting area. Designed with everyday use in mind, the shed features a traditional apex-style roof, offering excellent internal height and headroom. This creates a practical, airy space that makes moving around inside easy and comfortable. The single door is a great space-saver and can be configured to open either left or right, allowing you to customise the layout to suit your garden.

Built for Strength, Designed to Last

This shed is constructed using 12mm tongue and groove shiplap cladding, made from kiln-dried, high-quality European timber. The interlocking design is not just visually appealing—it also helps to protect the shed from wind and rain. The door is tongue and groove clad as well and reinforced with double ‘Z’ bracing, making it extra strong and secure. Inside, the construction-grade OSB floor and roof provide a durable and stable surface that won’t warp, even under extreme humidity. Unlike chipboard alternatives, OSB is widely used in the construction industry for its superior structural integrity. To keep your contents safe, the shed includes zinc-coated steel hinges that resist corrosion and a heavy-duty pad bolt (padlock not included) for secure closure. The roof is finished with a premium-grade mineral felt, offering full protection from the elements.

Environmentally Friendly and Low Maintenance

All timber used in this shed is sustainably sourced and pressure treated, offering long-lasting protection from rot and insect damage. There's no need for any additional treatment, but if you wish to personalise the look, the natural timber finish can be easily painted or stained to suit your garden's style.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I choose which side the door opens on?

Does the shed require any additional treatment?

No additional treatment is needed. The timber is **pressure treated**, offering long-term protection against rot and insect damage. However, you can paint or stain it for a decorative touch if desired.

What type of base is recommended?

Roof Tiles & Fittings:
