Description

The 10 x 5 Absco Space Saver Metal Shed in Pale Eucalyptus from Mercia represents a low maintenance, long-lasting and impressively spacious storage solution at a fantastic price. Its footprint is perfect for medium or larger gardens and, combined with its high ridge, there are few limits to what you can fit inside. As a metal shed, it boasts the huge advantage that it requires minimal maintenance during its lifetime. That means no yearly treatments, no painting and no running repairs. Simply wiping the shed down occasionally and removing any debris from on or around it should be more than enough to keep it at its best. Superior quality, high-tensile “Bluescope Steel” is used in the construction of Absco products, which is more durable, rigid and robust than the material used for many other metal sheds. A Pale Eucalyptus coloured “Colorbond” paint layer adds extra durability to the shed’s exterior and is a popular colour choice, especially in a more traditional garden because the subtle shade of green blends well in a range of garden settings.

A pent roof adds to the slightly more contemporary feel of the Absco Metal Shed and ensures effective water run off. A generous ridge height for a shed of this size ensures that you will gain an impressive amount of new storage for your home. The shed can be locked by attaching your own padlock to the sliding padbolt, so you can secure its contents. This size of Absco Shed comes with hinged double doors, an upgrade on the single door of smaller sizes, which provides you with extra flexibility on what can be stored inside. It also enables easy access to the contents of your shed.

Many metal sheds you will find on the market are notoriously fiddly to construct; however, every effort has been made with the Absco range of sheds to ensure that assembly is as straightforward as possible. Its SNAPTiTE assembly system makes every panel fit together tightly and with relative ease, while using far fewer screws than similar metal sheds in this price bracket. Pre-punched holes also speed up the installation process and make assembly easier. The edges are even rolled for extra safety when handling and constructing your product.

Many customers choose a metal shed because they are fire retardant. In caravan parks, holiday parks and campsites, for example, fire regulations require storage that is non-combustible. If this is a case, a metal shed could be ideal, though we do recommend that you double check with all relevant authorities before any purchase. A 20 year guarantee against rust and corrosion provides you with assurance that your shed will last for years and years to come. The shed is supplied flat packed with instructions and all the fixings that are required to complete assembly. You can also choose to have your shed constructed quickly and correctly by our expert team of fitters if you would prefer.

Base Information

The 10 x 5 Mercia Absco Space Saver Metal Shed does not come with a floor and it must be anchored firmly to a suitable base. We recommend it is anchored to a pre-laid and level foundation of concrete, flagstone or timber. A free anchor kit is inluded as standard.
