Detailed Specification

Please note: all imperial measurements are approximate and Mercia sheds are made from metric measurements.

Description

The Mercia 7 x 5 Overlap Pent Shed is perfect for those who want a rustic shed with maximum storage space in the classic pent design. Our shoppers buy this shed because it's a cheap option for garden storage yet still comes with FSC certified timber and our 10 year Anti-Rot shed warranty.

Walls - The walls of the shed are constructed from high quality, FSC certified timber. It uses overlap cladding to give the shed a rustic look that will look good in any garden.

Door - The shed door is braced and ledged to give you a strong durable door and as with the walls is made from high quality FSC certified rustic overlap cladding. The door is fixed to the right and is not interchangeable.

Roof And Floor - The roof and floor of the shed are constructed from high quality 'Solid Sheet Board'. This is a solid water resistant board which has a high uniform strength and is a similar product to plywood. The sloped roof lenghthens the lifetime of the shed because it promotes the run off of water, preventing the rotting of the solid sheet board. The shed floor also comes with high quality floor joists giving the shed a solid sturdy feel and greater load capacity.

Windows - All shed windows are glazed with environmentally friendly styrene which is a safer alternative to traditional glass. The windows allow plenty of light to flood into the shed and are factory fitted for easier installation. Non-interchangeable windows.

Full assembly instructions are provided with the Apex Shed and with all the fittings in the box as standard you will be amazed at how simple your shed is to install.

Please note All our sheds are pre-treated with a water based timber treatment for protection during transit. In order to receive the full 10 year anti-rot guarantee on your shed, it is necessary that you treat the shed with a high quality, water-based, timber preservative prior to or shortly after construction. This will protect the timber from weathering on your shed and will need to be repeated accordingly in relation to manufacturer's instructions.

Select a 'requested delivery date' by entering your post code in the 'Request a delivery date' section above. You will also be notified at this time if your area incurs a surcharge or delivery is not covered in your area.

If you choose not to select a requested delivery date you will be contacted directly to arrange a convenient delivery date.

You'll be contacted on the morning of your delivery date either by text or email with a 2 hour delivery slot. You will also be contacted by the driver 30 minutes before the delivery location.

Delivery Leadtimes

The estimated delivery lead time for this product is identified on the product page above. Lead times are in working days (Monday - Friday) excludes Bank Holidays. These estimated lead times are provided by the manufacturers and are not guaranteed - due to fluctuation in demand - but are provided in good faith and are representative of delivery at that time. Some remote areas will take a little longer.

Upon Delivery

Your order is delivered either kerbside or driveway and will be delivered on a 17 ton lorry (the size of a Refuse Cart). Unfortunately due to health and safety and insurance liabilities the driver will not be able to take your goods around to the back of your property but may upon request place the product at the side of the house if there are no access or restriction issues. We would not risk damaging your property whilst delivering a product to an un-safe location. Unfortunately we will not be able to go through your property.

You do not need to be home for your delivery. All we ask is that you let us know via email or leave a signed note to let us know that you will not be present for the delivery. In the note please let us know where a suitable place would be to leave the building. If you leave us a note the delivery driver will ring you 30 minutes before delivery and you can inform them of where the note is or you could just leave it on your front door. You must include your signature on the note; our drivers can then take photos of the note to confirm an item(s) has been delivered.

We would recommend against arranging for a third party to install the building before it's been delivered and checked that all parts are present, as we cannot be held liable for any third party costs.

Installation Option

If you have chosen our installation option your order will be delivered as per the delivery process above you have chosen. You’ll be given a separate date for the installation. The installation option will extend your lead time by up to 10 working days.

Customer Questions

From - Mr T
Hi. Can the door be fitted on the left hand front side, rather than the right hand front side as shown in your photo? i.e. can the window panel/front door be interchanged? Thanks

Elbec Response
Unfortunately the window panels are not interchangeable on the 5x7 shed and as standard are fitted on the right as you face the building.
