The strong framework is 44x44mm (50x50mm nominal before planing) with smooth rounded corners. There is diagonal cross bracing for strength, clad with interlocking shiplap. The door is ledged and braced with zinc hinges and a rim lock and door knob. A 3 pane georgian window as standard, glazed with horticultural glass. The shed is roofed with heavy duty green mineral roofing felt.

Beware of cheap imposters

Many companies advertise their sheds as "heavy duty" or "strong" (especially on the internet). But this is in name only! In reality they are generally cheap garden sheds with flimsey framing, thin cladding and weak a roof structure that will start to sag within a few months. Please don't be fooled into buying one of these as you will be shed shopping again within a year or two.  A garden shed is an investment, so choose wisely, inspect the specification and ideally view the shed before you buy. As the old saying goes, buy once and buy right!
