Keter Scala Outdoor Garden Storage Shed, Brown, 6 x 8 ft

Product Information

To start with, let’s take a quick look at the overall stats for this product, to give a quick idea of how it fares against the competition. Make sure you have an electric screwdriver to hand before attempting to put together and not on your own as it’s a two person job. The main problem are the tiny "self drilling" screws which take some effort with the drill driver before they finally decide to bite and go in and you're constantly dropping them on the floof because they are so fiddly and small to hold - and you only get the exact amount you need so don't lose any.

To give you an idea of how that fares against other similar products, we’ve run a little comparison. Made with weather-tough Duotech™ walls and heavy-duty floor, this large proportioned shed keeps your gear in pristine condition come rain or shine, and is roomy enough to house everything from your DIY workstation to large outdoor sports gear and even heavy motorized equipment. When you’re looking for a way to give your outdoor things indoor coverage, we have you covered - quite literally. Like every shed in the Oakland line, it features the rustic attractive look and feel of worn wood - but unlike wood, it will never rot, rust, or dent, and the original finish won’t peel. To help make the process easier we drilled a small hole in the desired area and then used the electric screwdriver.It was reasonably easy to put together but it took a long time; it arrived at 7am and we finally had it finished at 2:30pm with a little break.

This easy to build shed sets up a unique rustic look that gives an authentic wood effect finish, Completed with two large doors and two fixed windows to give natural light. I won't put anything in the shed until I have put some plywood boards down and maybe some lino over the top. On opening the box one of the pieces was broken - a piece of plastic that attached to the main roof beam was completely snapped. With wall panels made from weather-resistant DUOTECH™, this shed is every bit as strong and durable as their larger sheds and it even shares the same features including a heavy-duty floor panel, a lockable door (Lock not included), as well as brackets that allow for two shelves. Built to last, with a double wall, steel reinforced, weather-resistant construction the Oakland 1175 also features a heavy-duty floor that is strong enough to support heavy items such as lawnmowers and a strong roof that can support snow loads of up to 100 kg/sq m.

The evolutionary Darwin shed is the perfect design if you want the look and feel of wood with all of the benefits and ease of plastic. The reason it was difficult to assemble is that the instruction manual manual doesn't match the parts. It took a long time to assemble and there were a few items that can that were damaged but too late to send back as it was the bits you put on after the roof is on. There is a gap behind the doors as seen in the photos attached, all instructions followed and checked.
