Keter Stronghold 10x8 Shed — Oak Brown

The same Stronghold, in a warmer register. Oak brown sits against brick and fence panels the way a timber outbuilding does, without any of the arguments timber brings — no creosote weekend, no soft corner three winters in, no green film on the north face.

Seventy-four square feet, laid out properly

One-piece moulded floor, dead level, rated for a ride-on mower. The double doors clear 1.2 metres so a wheelbarrow goes straight through. You stand upright inside; at 2.26m to the ridge there's room above head height for a shelf run along the back wall.

What it shrugs off

Double-walled polypropylene on a steel frame, tested to 46mph winds and 150kg/m² of snow. The colour is moulded in, so scuffs don't show white and the finish doesn't need a coat of anything, ever.

Putting it up

An afternoon for two people with ordinary tools. It ships in several numbered boxes that sometimes arrive on different days — let them all land, check the numbers against the manual, then build. Roof skylights keep the inside usable in low light.
