Cottage 6x4ft Shed

Cottage sheds are available in various sizes, ranging from 6ft x 4ft (1.8m x 1.2m length x width) right up to 10ft x 8ft (3.0m x 2.4m). The overall height is dependent upon the size of the individual shed and ranges from 1.9-2.2m high, with an eaves height of 1.68m. These sizes also determine the number of windows and size of the door on Cottage sheds. The door is manufactured to a different specification to the sides; it is a smooth tongue and groove door hung from 3 tee hinges, complete with a hasp and staple lock on which a padlock can be used for extra security.

Each window section is a 3mm thick glass pane and can be fitted on either side of the shed. Safety glass or Perspex can be used in the place of a glass pane or you may also wish to have no windows at all.

As standard, Cottage sheds are pre-treated at the manufacturers in red cedar coloured water based preservative. As this is a water based treatment, it only partially soaks into the timbers of the shed, yet still offers a good level of protection. Cocklestorm offer an alternative, more substantial oil-based preservative which soaks deeper into the timber offering a much better levels of protection. This is the more popular choice amongst our customers. This premium, oil-based treatment also offers a choice of coloured finishes, allowing your Cottage shed to blend in with your garden.

When fitting a shed, Cocklestorm always use or recommend using a 4” x 2” pressure treated timber base to sit the shed on top of. The main reason for this is so that the shed itself sits on a solid, flat surface. Also, having the shed elevated allows airflow underneath and keeps the shed from being sat directly on the ground so moisture will not be soaked up into the base damaging the shed.

Please note that if you require a Cottage shed to be fitted, it could be subject to a free site survey. If the shed is purchased as supply only, it will be supplied with all the necessary fixings to erect the shed yourself, e.g. felt, nails, screw pack, fascias etc.
