Metal Apex Sheds For Traditional Style And Modern Value

Those seeking a traditional appearance along with increased security and protection

could do a lot worse than to consider a metal apex shed for their garden. Taking their name from the 'apex' or 'pinnacle' shape of the pointed gable, metal apex garden sheds retain the popular appearance of their timber predecessors but use modern materials and engineering to create standard, factory-made, good value products that are both strong and practical and which offer a long working life due to their lasting durability and low maintenance requirements. The traditional shape of metal apex sheds is complemented by other styling features including textured surfaces and pressed planking effects and these, along with a wide range of appealing traditional and modern colours, offer a look to suit most styles of home and garden.

The traditional look however belies the modern performance of the metal apex shed which is likely to be fireproof and rot and rodent-resistant. This, coupled with the durable and low maintenance plastic-coated surfaces and resilient metal panelling gives metal apex sheds the ability to withstand a great deal of the ordinary knocks, scrapes and wear and tear you would expect from day to day gardening or family activities. One of the most important benefits of metal apex garden sheds though is the greatly enhanced security and protection they offer compared to their timber counterparts. Offering good resistance to break-in that helps deter would-be thieves from stealing valuable cycles, lawnmowers, barbecues and garden furniture, a metal apex garden shed also provides a secure storage environment so that sharp-edged tools and hazardous chemicals and liquids can be kept away from children and pets.

Ease of assembly and installation is also a hallmark of the metal apex garden shed which, being a fully-engineered product, offers standardised dimensions and fixings so that almost any average householder can erect the smaller metal apex sheds using only normal DIY tools and equipment. However, some of the larger sizes of metal apex shed may be heavier and more awkward to handle and may require additional resources including lifting equipment. Please note also that some metal apex garden sheds may require the prior installation of a suitable concrete base or platform so if in doubt do not hesitate to check the specifications or ask the advice of your supplier before purchasing.

Most metal apex garden sheds are offered in a wide range of styles and sizes and with a choice of e.g. sliding or roller shutter doors and fixed and/or opening windows. In addition, most manufacturers offer a wide selection of shelves, brackets, rails and other accessories so it's easy to customise metal apex sheds to suit your exact needs without having to drill holes and cut timbers. This versatility also contributes to the great flexibility of the metal apex garden shed to readily adapt to new uses as your family grows. So remember it always pays to choose carefully when choosing your metal apex shed because it could be with you for many years to come.
