Description

This 6 x 4 Mercia Overlap Reverse Apex Shed is a highly affordable choice when it comes to garden storage, despite its dip-treated timber cladding and many helpful features. For storing the items that can often create clutter in your garden and fall prey to damage from the elements over time - such as gardening tools, garden furniture, bicycles, and more - this shed provides all that is needed in one compact structure. The reverse apex layout of this shed also means that the door and window are located on the longer side, making it a snug fit for many spaces such as the end of a garden.

Features

Thanks to the many features included in the 6 x 4 Mercia Overlap Reverse Apex Shed, everyday use is a pleasant experience for any owner of the shed. When entering through the robust and ledged single door, you will easily find any stored items you're looking for thanks to the ample sunlight let in through the fixed window beside the door. This features safe and transparent glazing with styrene, which is perfect for bustling family gardens where damage can be a concern. When it comes to security, we understand the need to keep stored items secure; a padbolt is included with this shed, which is made with galvanised steel and is padlock-friendly. Simply add your own to keep items safe from theft. 

The reverse apex roof of this shed looks stylish, showing off the mineral felt from the front of the garden building. Its angled construction encourages the run-off of rainfall to protect stored items from wet weather, and the underlying material is a water-resistant solid sheet board. This same oriented strand board is featured in the floor of the shed due to its rugged strength, especially when backed up by the strong joists that are included beneath the floor. 

Perhaps the most appealing element of the shed's design is its rustic overlap cladding. The 7mm cladding uses sustainably sourced timber that has been dip-treated prior to delivery, a treatment that protects your parts during transit and assembly. Once assembled, take the next step in protecting your timber against the elements and keeping your 10-year anti-rot guarantee valid by adding a wood preservative. Protek is a reputable manufacturer of paints and over 60 of their colours are available to order through elbec with your shed. 

Additional Details

Your shed will be delivered flat-packed with all the parts and fixtures needed to assemble your new garden building at home. We recommend allowing one or two days to do so, depending on your prior experience with similar DIY projects, and enlisting the help of an enthusiastic friend to help you put together your shed.

Delivery

ALL DELIVERIES ARE DELIVERED TO KERBSIDE OR DRIVEWAY. All of our Mercia products are delivered flat packed other than fence panels (which are delivered fully constructed), direct to your home, and are supplied with a set of instructions to support assembly.

Booking Delivery

You will be required to book your delivery date at the time of placing your order (except for Metal Shed). Our 'Request a Delivery Date' service is available to the majority of areas and you'll find that the majority of the UK postcodes are FREE but some areas may incur a delivery surcharge and some postcodes are not covered at all. Select a 'requested delivery date' by entering your postcode in the 'Request a delivery date' section above. You will also be notified at this time if your area incurs a surcharge or delivery is not covered in your area.

Prior to Delivery

On the morning of your delivery date, you'll be sent an update by text with an estimated 2-hour delivery slot (this update can only be provided where a mobile number has been supplied on the billing address section at the time of checkout) together with a link to the manufacturer delivery portal where you'll be able to track your order.

Please note: Mercia Metal Sheds ONLY - your order is delivered by a courier you will not be notified prior to the delivery. If you are not in on the day of the delivery you will be carded and asked to contact the courier to arrange a new mutual delivery date. The estimated delivery lead time for Mercia's Metal sheds is identified on the product for the metal shed. Lead times are on working days (Monday - Friday) excludes Bank Holidays. These estimated lead times are provided by the manufacturer. Some remote areas will take a little longer.

Upon Delivery

Your order is delivered either kerbside or driveway and will be delivered on either a 3.5T, 7.5T or 18T Lorry. Unfortunately due to health and safety and insurance liabilities the driver will not be able to take your goods around to the back of your property but may upon request place the product at the side of the house if there are no access or restriction issues. We would not risk damaging your property whilst delivering a product to an unsafe location. Unfortunately, we will not be able to go through your property.

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.

Orders with Assembly 

The lead time for our installation option is around 7 Weeks from the date of order. With the installation option, the majority of orders will have their delivery and installation on separate days; there will be a small number of orders which will have delivery and installation on the same day. You will be advised by the manufacturer's installation team which category your order falls into.

Depending on the installation option for your order, you will be contacted within the delivery timescale and given a date for either delivery/assembly on the same date or a separate date for delivery and assembly.
