Classic Cedar Ferndale Timber Garden Shed

Customising Your Ferndale Shed

The Classic Cedar Ferndale Timber Garden Shed uses a modular panel design, giving you flexibility to configure the shed to better suit your site and storage needs. Doors and windows can be positioned to work around fences, boundaries, or existing structures, and to capture the best natural light.

• Choose between a rustic shingle roof or a contemporary Colour Steel roof finish.
• Select from several Colour Steel colours (Karaka, Ironsand, Greyfriars, Ebony) to match your home and landscaping.
• Add your choice of fixed or opening windows in aluminium or timber to increase light and ventilation.
• Include clear light roof panels if you want extra daylight without adding more wall windows.
• Fit optional shelf units and a workbench to organise tools and create a compact workspace.
• Decide between a timber floor kit or bolt/peg down options to suit your chosen foundation.

The internal timber framing makes it straightforward to further customise the interior with hooks, shelving, or accessories such as an e-bike charger.

These sheds are designed to be DIY projects, however we also offer a full install service at fixed prices should you prefer someone else to do this for you. Typically a shed of this size would take one of the installers we use one day. See shed options for pricing.

DIY Build & Installation

The Classic Cedar Ferndale Timber Garden Shed is supplied as a modular kitset designed for straightforward assembly by someone with good DIY skills. Treated framing panels clad with cedar weatherboards are joined together with silicone and bolts, with beads siliconed and nailed in place. Roof sheets and flashings are screwed to the shed, or a premade shingle roof is fitted, before hanging the solid door.

The optional floor kit comes with precut runners and floorboards that can be nailed together using a hammer. Allow approximately one day for installation for a competent DIYer.
