Description

Our most sought-after shed design is the 6 x 4 Shire Sun Hut Shiplap Potting Shed, which boasts functionality and style. It provides ample storage space making it perfect for a garden shed while also serving as a potential potting shed.

For those who appreciate the natural aesthetic of a wooden shed, this design will effortlessly blend into any garden setting. We are delighted to provide the additional service of arranging for our skilled professionals to assemble your shed. Alternatively, you can construct it yourself using the comprehensive instructions provided with the shed.

An adaptable design feature of the timber greenhouse is the ability to have the door placed on either side. This versatility allows greater flexibility in positioning the shed in a garden or outdoor space.

The ability to choose the door location also makes the potting shed more user-friendly. Gardeners can select the side that suits them best and allows for comfortable working conditions. In addition, having the door on either side allows for greater airflow and ventilation, which can be essential for maintaining a healthy growing environment.

This garden shed boasts a sleek apex-roof design that will surely add a style touch to your outdoor space. Featuring 4 windows; 2 opening windows and 2 fixed windows, it allows abundant natural light inside and makes it effortless to regulate the temperature.

A handy potting shelf is included on the glazed elevation, making it ideal for gardening enthusiasts. The double door is secured with a padbolt (padlock not included) and has the added benefit of being relocatable to the left or right-hand side, offering more flexibility in placement.

The sturdy construction of the shed is ensured by the shiplap tongue and groove walls, as well as the tongue and groove floor and roof. It provides excellent protection from the elements, making it a reliable shelter for all your gardening needs.

Wooden Greenhouse Aftercare:

The Shire Sun Hut Potting Shed has timbers that have been dip-treated to protect them during transit. You must apply a preservative and waterproofing topcoat immediately after installation. Using the treatment after installation, followed by consistent annual treatment of the garden potting shed, will maintain the high-quality finish and is a requirement of the 10-year anti-rot guarantee. A 1-year manufacturer’s warranty is included as standard.

To treat the potting shed, elbec recommends Protek wood treatment. Browse our Protek Royal
