Description

With its traditional apex roof and modern anthracite finish, the Alton 10 x 6 Metal Shed perfectly balances timeless style and everyday practicality. It’s compact enough for smaller gardens yet still provides ample room for bikes, tools, lawncare equipment and more.

The wide double doors make storing and retrieving larger items effortless, while internal shelving, tool hangers, and door-mounted racks help keep everything in its place. Integrated vents promote airflow, protecting contents from damp and condensation, and the robust euro mortice lock with stainless steel handle secures it all.

Manufactured in the UK using powder-coated galvanised steel, this shed is built to endure harsh weather and resist rust. With a ground anchor kit included and backed by a lifetime warranty, the Alton is a long-term storage solution designed to look good and perform brilliantly year after year.

Metal Shed Base Guidelines

Before initiating any groundwork, selecting the size and location of the shed you intend to install is essential. We advise maintaining a clear 50cm space around the shed’s perimeter to facilitate ladder access during installation.

NOTE: A concrete base is recommended if you plan to create a new foundation for your shed. Ensure the base is solid and level, as any irregularities could affect the shed's stability and interfere with the door mechanisms. A slight gradient in the base is advisable for natural rainwater drainage, with a recommended slope of no more than 20mm in any direction.

If a base is already in place, please ensure it meets the minimum size requirements and is in good condition. Any uneven or damaged areas of the existing base should be repaired before proceeding with the shed installation.

Concrete Base

If you are uncertain about the suitability of the surface where your metal shed will be placed, we strongly advise installing a concrete base to ensure stability. The recommended construction comprises a 75mm hardcore sub-base with 75mm concrete.

Patio Slabs or Block Paving

Patio slabs or block paving provide a great alternative to a concrete base. Each slab must be precisely laid to form a uniform and level base. Typically, this involves a 75mm hardcore sub-base, followed by 25mm mortar beneath the slabs.

Vehicles We Use
Deliveries will be made using larger lorries that can access most locations. Typically, we use a 7.5-ton lorry, similar in size to a dustbin lorry. However, the actual size may vary depending on the item being delivered. If you have concerns about restricted access to your property, please contact us before placing your order.

Unloading Of Your Delivery
Because of the product's characteristics, delivery will occur at the front of your property, to the closest accessible point. Our drivers are unable to transport these items into your home or back garden. When items are delivered on a pallet, both the pallet and packaging are non-returnable, and movement is possible only on a flat, level surface (not on gravel driveways) using a pallet truck. Sometimes, the driver may split the package to aid in moving the item. We'll request you to inspect the goods upon delivery, ensuring satisfaction before signing off on the delivery.

Installation Option

If you opt for installation, please note that delivery and assembly will occur on different days. Choosing installation will extend your lead time by approximately 25-30 working days from the order placement date for installation.
