Description

The Shire Overlap Pent Shed 16x6 is the ultimate solution for spacious and stylish outdoor storage. Designed for larger gardens, this shed offers ample room for tools, equipment, outdoor furniture, and even a light work area. Its contemporary pent roof and generous dimensions make it practical and visually appealing.

Constructed with 7mm overlap cladding and a sturdy 34x34mm frame, the shed is built to withstand the elements while offering a rustic yet modern aesthetic. The pent roof design provides a sleek profile and ensures efficient water runoff to protect your belongings from moisture. The solid sheet roof and floor, crafted with zero-defect materials, add further strength and durability for everyday use.

Six fixed acrylic windows flood the interior with natural light, making the space ideal for storage, organisation, crafts, or light DIY tasks. The single door, reinforced with Z-bar bracing and secured with a padlock, ensures easy access while keeping your items safe and secure.

With interchangeable front panels, customisation is simple, allowing you to adapt the shed’s layout to fit your garden perfectly. Smaller panels make handling and assembly easier, even for a structure of this size. Made from responsibly sourced timber and manufactured in the UK, the shed reflects Shire’s commitment to sustainability and high-quality craftsmanship.

Whether you need extra storage or a versatile outdoor workspace, the Shire Overlap Pent Shed 16x6 delivers the perfect balance of functionality, style, and value. Its robust construction and spacious design make it a practical addition to any large garden.

Optional Shed Base:

Installing a garden shed on soil or grass isn't ideal, but this base allows it. Use a heavy-duty weed membrane underneath. This quick and easy solution provides a solid base without the cost of concrete or slabs. Made from 44mm x 70mm pressure-treated wood with deep preservative penetration, the base is suitable for lawns or firm soil. Adjustable base spikes (up to 100mm) are included. Simply screw the timbers and attach spikes for a sturdy, elevated base that keeps damp away. Order this base from the 'Choose Additional Options' section above.

Make the Most of Your Shed:

Maximise the potential of your Shire Overlap Pent Shed 16x6 by dividing its spacious interior into functional zones. Install shelving along the walls for tools, gardening supplies, or DIY materials while using the floor space for larger items like leaf blowers or outdoor furniture. The six acrylic windows allow plenty of natural light, making it ideal for setting up a workbench for potting plants or completing small projects. Consider adding hooks to hang frequently used tools and stackable storage boxes to keep smaller items tidy. The shed’s generous size makes it versatile enough to serve as both a storage solution and a functional garden retreat.

About Your Order:

The Shire Overlap Shed is a British-made garden building made from high quality spruce (picea) and is sourced from sustainably sourced timber. You will get a low-carbon footprint shed made from ethically sourced materials. The practical design makes it straightforward to assemble. It comes with a 10-year anti-rot guarantee and a 12-month manufacturer's warranty. 

Superior fixings, high-quality roof felt, and assembly from the manufacturer is available as an optional service. The timber boards attach to a solid internal framing to make hard-wearing and sturdy panels. The Shire Overlap Shed is flat-packed for easy handling and assembly.

Please note: Images may depict furnishings and accessories; these are for illustration purposes only and are not included with your order. 

Garden Shed Aftercare:

The shed's timbers have been dip-treated to protect them during transit. You must apply a preservative and waterproofing topcoat immediately after installation. This treatment, followed by consistent annual treatment, will maintain the high-quality finish and is a requirement of the 10-year anti-rot guarantee. A one-year manufacturer's warranty is included as standard.

To treat the shed, elbec recommends Protek wood treatment. Browse our Protek Royal Exterior Wood Finish Paint range to find the best paint colour to add your personalised finish.  We’ve also included popular colours and a Wood Preserver+ for use underneath your colour choice in the options section.

Delivery is made by Shire the manufacturer. Delivery of this item is typically made by a 17 ton flat-bed (similar size to a council refuse lorry). Delivery is typically between 7am and 7pm. The delivery drivers are only insured to deliver to kerb side or driveway. We would not risk damaging your property whilst delivering a product. Unfortunately we will not be able to go through your property. Deliveries are hand-balled off by the driver.

We would recommend against arranging for a third party to install the building before it's been delivered and checked that all parts are present, as we cannot be held liable for any third-party costs.

If you are choosing the installation option after placing your order you’ll be contacted within 5 working days by Shire the manufacturer either by a text message or automated telephone message (the latter if a mobile number is not supplied).

The installation option will extend your lead time by up to 15-25 working days. This may take longer during seasonal periods. Please be aware that the installation team will require full access to your garden, 18' clearance all around the building and a firm and level base. Shire's installation team will not bring a building through your home as they are not covered by insurance to enter a customer’s home.
