Product Details

The Swallow Rook Painted Potting Shed at 8ft x 6ft is a purpose-built growing and storage solution. Its part-glazed roof floods plants with light, while the rear section keeps tools and supplies organised. Installation and delivery are included at no extra cost.

Every unit features 3mm toughened glass as standard. We fit each pane into purpose-cut grooves in the frame, then seal it firmly with quality silicone. The inward-opening door comes fitted with a mortise lock for solid, everyday security.

Every roof vent is paired with a Bayliss XL autovent. This opens the vent automatically when temperatures rise, protecting your plants whether you are present or not. A full-length run of slatted staging lines one side, giving you a practical surface for potting and plant care.

The Rook's layout balances growing space with practical storage from the ground up. The full-length staging sits alongside 2 rear shelves, keeping everything within reach. ThermoWood timber backs this up with a 12 Year Warranty, and our team handles fitting so you do not lift a finger.
