Product Details

The Rook 8ft x 16ft Painted Potting Shed combines attractive styling with genuine working practicality. Its part-glazed roof creates an ideal growing zone, while the rear section handles all your storage needs. Installation and delivery are included at no extra cost.

Every unit ships with 3mm toughened glass as standard. Panes sit within purpose-cut grooves machined into the frame, then fixed permanently using quality silicone. The inward-opening door fits a mortise lock straight from the factory - no upgrades required.

Both roof vents come paired with Bayliss XL autovents. These open automatically when temperatures climb, protecting your plants even when you are away. A full-length slatted staging bench runs the length of one side, giving you a proper surface for potting and plant care.

This potting shed is designed to balance cultivation space with practical storage. The 520mm wide, 745mm high staging sits alongside 2 rear shelves, keeping tools and supplies within easy reach. ThermoWood timber carries a 12 Year Warranty, and every building arrives fully installed by our fitting team.
