Apex Sheds

What is an Apex Shed?

Apex garden sheds are recognisable by their roof shape. Compared to pent sheds which have one, sloping surface, an apex shed has 2 sloping sides which meet in the middle at the highest point. It’s a classic look, and a popular choice for garden sheds!

Available in wooden sheds, metal sheds, and plastic sheds, an apex shed has plenty of storage alongside the interior walls whilst giving you plenty of headroom to navigate through the middle, perfect for storing cutting tools and garden hand tools, as well as power tools if you wanted to create your own workshop.

You’ll find apex sheds in lots of different sizes, designs, and cladding. Find your perfect combination today and complete your garden storage setup!

FAQs

Are apex sheds any good?

Apex sheds are fantastic for storing those tall gardening tools you don't want to be left out in the rain. Plus, with their added headroom, you can create overhead storage space and won’t bump your head!

What is the difference between apex and pent sheds?

Apex sheds feature classic gable roofs that slope downward from the centre to each side. On the other hand, pent sheds have a single slant from top to bottom. The pent shed might be more convenient if you're shorter, while taller individuals prefer the apex design.

Should I paint my apex shed?

Absolutely! Painting your shed can transform its appearance from basic to beautiful in your garden. Plus, top-quality paints come with sealants that enhance the appearance of the shed and provide protection against the elements, ensuring its longevity.

How close can I build a shed to my neighbour's boundary in the UK?

It depends on the height of the shed. According to UK law, a shed 2.5m tall should be positioned at least 2m from the boundary. While the exact distance can vary, it typically won't be less than 2m.
