This 7' x 5' overlap shed outperforms the usual overlap shed on the market. Despite its modest price, it has a variety of quality features. The Shire Value Range sheds differ from similar goods in that they have supporting rails on the inside of each wall from top to bottom, rather than only on the top, as some others on the market do. It also boasts a 34mm framework, which is 20% thicker than anything else at this price point and guarantees a considerably sturdier build that will endure for years. The Shire Value Overlap Shed's main selling feature is its 34mm framing. This offers the shed strength and stability that is unrivalled by comparable items in this price range. The overlap design of the shed facilitates efficient water runoff, which will help to keep the shed dry on the inside. However, a suitable waterproofing solution should still be done to guarantee that your shed's contents are fully protected from the elements and that your shed will last. The door is sturdy and ledged, with a hasp and staple for security. A roof made of 8mm Oriented Strand Board (OSB) ensures good weather resistance. Furthermore, with roofing felt included with your order, the level of protection is increased even further. The shed floor is similarly 8mm OSB, so it should be robust enough to hold whatever you need to keep within. Finally, because this shed comes without windows, it conceals anything you want to store within from prying eyes, assisting in the security of the shed's contents. The most generally used timber for garden buildings is pine (pinus), which is widely available at a low cost; however, all of Shire's garden buildings are made of high grade spruce (picea). Spruce is more durable than pine and has a greater finish quality. This timber is slow grown, as opposed to quick grown timber from the United Kingdom and Eastern Europe, and slow growth produces a tighter grain, less sap, and fewer knots. As a result, the timber used on Shire's range is more resilient and will endure considerably longer than other timbers. This shed comes pre-treated on both sides with a base coat of a golden brown water-based industrial solution (colour can vary from the picture shown). Shire suggests using a water-based top coat. This will protect the lumber on your shed from weathering, allowing it to last longer, and will need to be repeated according to the manufacturer's specifications. This is also a terrific method to update the look of your shed over time or personalise it to your preference.
