Overview
Make the most of your garden space by adding a stylish, practical and high-quality reverse apex shed from Mercia Garden Products.
The Overlap Reverse apex takes the traditional shed and turns it on its side. The door is placed on what would normally be your side gable. Placing the window and door on the wider section of the building, not only makes it a more attractive building but also increases its functionality.
All products in this range are constructed using 7mm overlap cladding, 10mm solid sheet floor, 8mm solid sheet roof and 28 x 28mm framing for strength.
This range offers the choice between a window and windowless version.
(Please note: Images are dressed and painted for display purposes only. All listed metric dimensions include the roof overhang)

You get what you pay for.It's a cheap shed. I had a limited budget so chose this one. I had to reinforce all of it but the floor was the biggest shock. It's up, packed full and looks good.

Very flimsyI bought this shed last summer wish I hadn't bothered . It has cost more to make the walls,roof and floor stable enough for myself or my grandchildren inside it . Even once painted you can still through parts of the walls,the floor was like walking on a sponge. Had to use filler
between the slats to stop the rain coming in

Good service from Robert DyasI have just purchased a reverse apex 8x6 shed from Robert Dyas. Due to lockdown I had to buy without seeing the shed. Something I hate to do. From start to finish the communication from them was really good. I received regular updates on my order, and it was delivered on time by their very helpful driver. I must be honest and say there are better sheds, BUT, if all you need is a basic shed for your garden tools, kids toys etc then it would be fine. It is a bit flimsy, but goes together well, and once it is painted up looks great.

Poor QualityDelivered efficiently and erected easily enough but made with the thinnest materials possible so have had to spend the same amount of money again reinforcing the walls and floor. Poor quality felt so the roof will require recovering within a year.
My previous budget shed gave me 20 years but this didn't look like it would last three years without intervention - should have spent more to begin with or at least scrutinized the dimensions before ordering!

Great value for moneyReally pleased with our new shed. The reverse apex style meant it fitted the space in our garden perfectly. Clear and concise build instructions made it very easy for two of us to assemble although we did need to call on another pair of hands from time to time just for some additional support. Only criticism would be the difficulty is getting the transportation blocks off each panel whilst trying not to damage the panel itself. Perhaps these could be screwed on rather than nailed!

Very FlimsyBought this a week ago and it was delivered on Saturday which was impressive. However the shed is very poor quality and it was only after my husband had stained it that we noticed the timber was so thin in places that there were holes! Not sure what we’ll be able to store in it as the floor seems very bouncy and I’m worried we’ll go through it! :(
