The Shire Barn Shed features a classic Dutch barn style roof, rather than a standard apex. The Dutch barn style roof allows for greater headroom within the shed, with no compromise in structural strength. The roof and floor are constructed from a quality tongue and groove cladding. This garden building also features a modular design used by many of the Shire branded buildings. Modular buildings allow you to select where a window panel is placed when you install the building. The wall panels are constructed of tongue and groove cladding and supplied in modular sections. The main advantage of a modular design is that each individual panel will be small enough (in one or both dimensions) to be carried by typically one person, and will fit through a standard pedestrian door. As a consequence, the individual boards may not line up perfectly with those on adjacent panels, due to the variances in the natural timber cladding. Two storm-resistant opening windows of a joinery quality are included, each being of an extra-wide (2-pane) format. The double door has a padbolt, ready to accept a customer-supplied padlock. Full installation instructions will be included with the building, along with roofing felt and any fixtures and fittings required.
Made in the UK, this stylish Barn garden shed is both practical and stylish! Ideal for all your tools, lawn mowers, bikes and garden furniture but would also make an excellent workshop with an internal ridge height over 2 m high. This practical Barn has two joinery quality, storm resistant opening windows and the double door is completed with a padbolt ready for your own padlock. the doors can be fitted at either end. Both roof and floor are manufactured from 12mm T&G boards. The wall cladding is 12mm slow grown, very high grade pine on sturdy 34mm framing. Mineral roof felt, assembly instructions and a fixing kit are also provided. The shed is finished with a honey brown basecoat preservative treatment ready for top coating immediately on installation in your choice of wood paint or stain. When siting, allowance should be made for the roof overhang and for access around the outside during construction and subsequent treatment.
