The 20 x 10 Overlap Apex Wooden Shed is the largest shed in the Overlap range, offering an extremely vast, open and spacious interior that is suitable for many purposes. This building would make a great workshop, with ample space for large equipment and tools as well as storing general gardening equipment and furniture. Boasting wide double doors, this building provides easy access and storage of large items. Styrene windows allow light into the interior while being safe and shatterproof. Manufactured here in the UK, using FSC® certified timber, this building is great for those who require a shed that offers great quality with excellent value. The walls of this store are made using horizontal boards that overlap each other, this traditional method of construction creates a solid panel that encourages rain water to run off the building, protecting your stored possessions from the elements. Solid sheet board is used to form the floor and roof, a durable material that is made up of several layers of tightly compacted oriented strands. Solid sheet board is perfect for everyday use and general storage.
This building is complete with thick wooden internal framing to support the overlap panelling, creating a rigid, long lasting structure. The traditional apex roofline provides generous head height for storing taller items and storage units. Robust roofing felt, fixtures and fittings are all supplied as standard, alongside our detailed instructions and our manufacturer’s recommendations to ensure a simple, stress free assembly process.
All of our buildings come with an Anti-rot guarantee, to ensure your garden building looks great and lasts the test of time, this building in particular comes with a conditional 10 year Anti-rot guarantee as well as a 12 month manufacturer’s warranty. Annual re-treatment is required to maintain your building and the Anti-rot guarantee.
Delivery was fine, the driver phoned 25 mins before he arrived. it is a kerbside drop, it is written in the paperwork that they wont move the shed to the back garden or a place of your choosing so be prepared to lug it yourself.
As provided I would rate this shed as 1/5 but with an amount of work 4/5
A good concrete or slabbed base is essential.
Allow about £250 for what you also need if you want a good shed.
The shed is best painted before assembly, I bought 2 nine litre tubs of Cuprinol Ducksback wood care. I used about 75% of what I bought.
The floor will not take any type if weight and is not fit for purpose so I bought 7 1220mm x 2440mm x 18mm OSB3 boards to cover the floor pre assembly.
The ends of the side and end panels will all need trimming to obtain any chance of a good fit.
You will also need to measure the width of the side panels as the middle roof panels will need trimming to the same length as they need to match on assembly.
The roof will support no weight of anybody climbing on it to screw the roof down or attach roof felt. You need to put all the screws you can to pin the roof down then where you can't reach add brackets between the roof and cross members inside the shed.
The roof felt will need to be attached across the roof not down the roof as in the plans.
Lay the felt over the roof after cutting to size and I suggest pushing over the top with a rake then use Thompson's high performance roof seal 2.5 litre black from screwfix to seal the different felt strips together and the felt tacks for along the guttering. I used a telescopic extendable window cleaner that will hold a brush to cover the seams with the sealer.
I also added weather strip to the doors and modified them for my own needs. I am satisfied with how the shed is now after I have put the extra work in.. Caroline. Sutton Coldfield, GB. Tue Jun 06 2017
