Cheap workshops but high quality construction

Workshops and sheds can be labelled as heavy duty or strong but in reality all is not what it seems - Hortons only sell truly strong apex and pent workshops and sheds, not the cheap volume made buildings that are made as cheaply as possible. Some companies think that a cheap price is everything - we all know that you get what you pay for! Please be aware.
Our range of workshop sheds includes all sizes - 6x4, 7x5, 8x6, 10x8, 12x8, 12x10, 16x10, 18x10, 20x10 sheds are the more standard sizes but ours are all made to measure so you can have whatever size you like - we make to the nearest millimetre!

No more access problems

We have solved one of the main problems with a strong, heavy duty, well constructed timber garden workshop - they are made with large, very heavy and awkward panels making it difficult to actually get into your garden. They are often not only very heavy but can also be long or tall (or both long and tall) panels - if you have restricted access (width or height) then quite often, short of hiring a crane for the day, you have to look for other options. This is why we have come up with our unique "Easibuild" garden workshop shed.

The walls are made using a stacking system where each wall is at least 2 panels high and can be a number of panels long (but crucially all vertical joins are staggered to give much more lateral strength than when full height panels are joined, in a similar way to staggered brickwork joints - all joins are staggered from the previous course to give added strength). This eliminates the access problems previously described (size and weight of panels). We also add extra vertical timber strengtheners (going from the very top to the very bottom of each wall if more than 3m long) into pre-formed channels within the wall panels to tie it all together very quickly and easily during the build, to make it probably the stongest workshop construction you will ever come across. In combination with panelised floor and roof panels (again all very manageable sizes), this workshop is ideal for DIY installation.
We have our own dedicated factory which makes these garden buildings and structures, therefore we can not only make any size or design you choose but we can also offer factory painting using high quality Remmers Aidol treatment meaning that once you have built it, it's done and fully weather-proofed.

Easibuild Garden Workshop installation instructions

You will already need a suitable flat, level sub base in place to start installing your Easibuild building. We can supply a raised timber base kit separately if required.
 
NB- These instructions should be read in conjunction with the drawings provided with the building.
 
It is good practise to lay a damp proof membrane (DPM) on top of your base before starting to install the building. Our DPM kit is cut at least 100mm larger all round than the base size required for the building – lay this on the base first, then lay your floor panels as described below in the fitting instructions. Then fold the edges of the DPM over on top of the floor and fix the edge trims all around (this protects the DPM from UV damage and mechanical damage by strimmers etc). Fit the wall panels as described in the fitting guide and finally trim off any excess. This means that should water get on top of your base and under the building, the water will stay under the DPM rather than get on top of it, keeping all of the timber dry.
 
Floor
If you are insulating the floor, the floor panels should be turned upside down to expose the bearers. Cut the insulation boards and fit between the bearers - this should be a tight fit such that they stay in place when turning the floor panels back over for installation. A tape can be used to hold them in place if required.
 
Place the first 2 floor panels on the base (if a floor board is needed to fill the gap, then fix this on 1 side and guide it into the groove of the other panel when pulling them together). Fix the panels together by angling a 5x80mm screw from each end  through 1 floor bearer into the next. Work your way along fitting each floor panel in turn.
NB – If you have an insulated floor, then the insulation needs to be fitted before fitting the floor panels together by turning them upside down, cutting the insulation between the floor bearers for a tight fit. Then flip the panels back over in order to construct the floor.
 
Start fitting the wall panels by forming a corner on the back of the floor (this then leaves easier access for the other panels to be built), simply screw the panels together with 5x80mm screws and a cordless screwdriver. Work your way around to form a complete first course (do not fix down to the floor at this stage).
Follow the same procedure for the second course of wall panels, screwing the panels together in the same way as the bottom course and also into the panel below. Be careful to ensure the cladding does not get damaged during this process – the best way is to rest the panel so that it only half rests on the panel below and then slide it back in to meet the bottom panel.
If the wall panels are 3m or longer, or if the a wall is made up from more than 1 panel long (if this is the case, then the vertical panel joints will be staggered, like a brick wall, in order to form a much stronger wall than if they line up), then there are slots manufactured into the panels into which a pre-cut vertical timber is inserted and then fixed (again using 5x80mm screws)-
This strengthens the walls to form a solid stud from floor to ceiling and also ties the top and bottom wall panels together. 
The roof trusses are sent in knock-down form and require assembly on site - as each truss is made, offer it up to one of the gable ends to ensure they match the roof angle before tightening the nuts. Fit the purlins / roof trusses (apex – these are deconstructed for transport and need to be reconstructed on site) into the pre-formed notches and screw into place. There are truss feet support blocks also supplied as shown-
Roof
Before starting to fit the roof panels, measure the 2 diagonal distances between the tops of the opposing corners of the building – these need to be the same as each other to ensure the building is square. If they are not equal, you need to move the wall panels accordingly otherwise the roof panels will not fit.
If you have ordered the building without our roof insulation kit, then the roof panels are fitted with the tongue & grooved roof boards facing up.
If you have ordered our roof insulation kit, the roof panels will be fitted with the tongue & grooved boards facing downwards with the OSB sheet material on the top. The OSB is held on temporarily with a few screws which need to be removed, the OSB taken off, cut and fit the insulation boarding tightly into each of the panels and screw the OSB back on.
Lift and slide one of the top roof panels into position such that they finish at the point of the apex (the T&G roof boards extend past the framing to meet at the point) and fix by screwing down though the framing of the roof panel into the trusses / purlins and end walls with the 5x120mm screws provided.
Continue fixing the roof panels into position working your way down the roof, ensuring the panels stay parallel with the walls (the bottom panels have the large 140x45mm timber drips on the outer edges, as shown on the drawings provided).
 
Fit the fascia boards, barge boards (using 3.5x4.5mm screws) and roofing material (felt roll, felt shingles etc) onto the roof .
Screw the corner battens to each corner (3.5x4.5mm screws).
 
Screw through the bottom of the the wall panels down into the floor panels to secure into place (in each corner and approximately every metre thereafter, evenly spaced) using 5x80mm screws.
 
Fit the windows and doors by removing the inside trims/architraves from the frame, slide the frame into the pre-formed holes in the wall panels, re-fit the inside trims/architraves and finally fix the frames into the wall panels with 5x80mm screws.
 
Your building is now complete, the only thing left to do is to paint it with a good quality waterproofing preservative (unless you have chosen the factory applied treatment).

2m x 2m Easibuild garden workshop installation

Hortons Easibuild garden workshops are very heavy duty - more framework than others, bigger framework than others, thicker cladding than others, stronger roof than others and stronger floor than others! Not forgetting our unique build system where 1 man can each piece regardless of how big the building is, and they are half height so they can fit through standard doorways (regardless of how tall the building is). All of the panels have been hand made at the factory and fitted together before being dismantled, packed and sent - so rest assured, everything will fit together! Click into the video to see the build from start to completion carried out in 1 day by 1 man (including carrying the panels from the roadside, up the drive and around the side of the house into a very tight space where 2 sides were only accessible by climbing over a 1m thick hedge from the road and neighbours driveway).
