What are overlap sheds?

Overlap sheds refer to how they are constructed with panels “overlapping” each other. Evidence from excavations proves that overlap cladding on sheds has been in use since medieval times. As they are manufactured with wooden panels, overlap sheds are only available as wooden sheds, with plastic and metal versions not being applicable.

They are constructed with horizontal overlapping slats of timber affixed to a framework, with vertical support battens provided for extra strength. The sheds we supply typically have 7mm or 8mm thick cladding. This is perfectly suited for weatherproofing sheds against the worst of British weather. These sheds are available with either single door or double door configurations.

Overlap sheds are the lowest cost wooden sheds we supply. The vast majority of our overlap sheds for sale are manufactured by Forest Garden, we also have a few available from Shire.

What are the advantages of overlap garden sheds?

Here are some benefits to consider for overlap sheds:

  • Assembly – the assembly of overlap garden sheds is relatively simple
  • Price – the price is lower; this is the cheapest type of shed we sell
  • Repair – even with minimal DIY experience, replacing individual damaged panels is easy
  • Traditional style – the classic style of overlap cladding is appealing to buyers looking to buy a traditional style shed

An overview of the range

We have a wide range of sizes of overlap sheds for sale ranging from a compact 3’x5’ up to a substantial 20’x10’. Our most popular sizes are 6’x4’, 7’x5’, 8’x6’, 10’x6’, 10’x8’ and 12’x8’. Whatever the size of overlap shed you need we will have one available at Shedstore.

Do not confuse the low cost of our overlap sheds with low-quality. Our range is built to last, and all have either a ten year (dip treated) or twenty five years (pressure treated) guarantee, proving the manufacturer’s confidence that these sheds will be long-lasting. Dip treated refers to the process where the wood is dipped in preservative, whereas pressure treated is where the wood is treated inside the wood with preservative penetrating deep inside the timber.

The majority of our overlap garden sheds have an apex roofing style, but we also sell pent and reverse apex styles too, giving customers plenty of options.

We have a number of square-shaped corner sheds available with overlap cladding with 7’x7’ being the most popular size. Our overlap lean to sheds are another option and are particularly cost-effective and ideally suited to those with restricted budgets. Some of our range is also windowless, which has security benefits and also reduces the cost.
