Brookmere 7x5 Tongue and Groove Apex Shed with Window

A classic apex shed one size up from the basics, with smooth tongue-and-groove cladding that locks the boards together for a tighter, more weather-resistant wall than overlap. The door sits in the gable end under the pitched roof, so there is headroom to walk straight in, and the fixed window beside it lets in daylight for potting, sorting tools or finding the bike pump. At 7 x 5 ft it takes a lawnmower, garden tools, a folding table and chairs, and still leaves shelf space along the side walls.

Features

• 7 x 5 ft apex roof with walk-in headroom at the ridge
• 12 mm tongue-and-groove cladding on a 28 x 44 mm frame
• Ledged-and-braced gable-end door with hasp and staple (padlock not included)
• One fixed window with shatter-resistant styrene glazing
• 11 mm OSB floor on bearers and OSB roof with black mineral felt
• Timber fascias and finials, dip-treated golden-brown finish

Specification

Assembly

Your building arrives as pre-made flat-packed panels: the wall panels, doors and window frames are already assembled, so you fix the panels together, fit the floor and roof, then felt the roof and add the trims. Allow about 3 - 4 hours for two adults. You will need a cordless drill/driver, a hammer, a spirit level, a tape measure, a craft knife for the felt and a step ladder. All fixings, felt and felt nails are included, with step-by-step instructions.

Planning and base

Most garden buildings of this size fall under permitted development in England, but the rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, for listed buildings and conservation areas, and for outbuildings higher than 2.5 m within 2 m of a boundary. Please check with your local planning authority if you are unsure. Every building needs a firm, level base slightly larger than its footprint - paving slabs, a concrete pad or a timber or plastic base system. The base is not included.

Care

This building is dip-treated with a water-based preservative to protect it in transit and for the first months. Apply a good-quality exterior wood preservative or stain within three months of assembly and then once a year, paying extra attention to the cladding ends, door bottoms and corner trims. Check the roof felt every spring and autumn, keep gutters, leaves and soil away from the walls, and leave a small gap between the building and any fence or hedge so air can circulate. A little candle wax or oil on the hinges keeps the doors moving freely.
