The quintessential British garden shed, an apex shed is instantly recognisable with its peaked roof and traditional aesthetic. Offering many functional and environmental benefits, apex garden sheds are a popular choice for every style of home.
The practical benefits of apex sheds
Storage - the design of the apex roof with two sloping sides that meet in the middle at the highest point, gives a spacious interior with maximum storage potential. The internal height gives plenty of room to store taller or larger items such as ladders and garden tools, while the internal wall space has plenty of scope for vertical storage solutions such as shelving and racking.
Comfort - the extra head height of an apex shed makes it much easier for anyone taller to move about and work in the shed, without having to stoop to fit. Internal measurements are 7’4” at the ridge, sloping to 6’.
Weather resistance - the dual aspect of the pitched roof allows water run-off from both sides of the roof. This minimises the risk of water settling on the roof, which can eventually lead to water damage and even leaks caused by water pooling and seepage.
Durability – a wooden apex shed from Sutton Sheds offers durability and longevity. Our sheds are treated with a coat of a quality, water-based preservative which will last for 12-18 months. With ongoing and regular treatment, an apex shed will last for decades.
The eco credentials of a wooden apex shed
Wood is a renewable resource and stocks can be replenished through effective forest management and replanting projects.
Timber is a great insulator which will keep your shed warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
As wood is completely reusable and recyclable, your shed can be recycled at the end of its life, and the wood used for something else.
