8 x 6 - BillyOh Ballington 8 x 6 Metal Shed

8 x 6 – BillyOh Ballington 8 x 6 Metal Shed £229.00
BillyOh Metal Sheds – Ballington 8 x 6. We believe that our Ballington sheds are not only the best looking steel sheds on the market but give more internal floor space when compared to our competitors. The deep roll-formed wall and roof panels provide unique strength unlike shallow formed clad sheds. Hot Dipped Galvanised Steel . This metal shed is made throughout from quality, hot-dipped-galvanised steel – unlike most, competitive models using electro-galvanised steel that cannot provide the rust protection only hot-dipped galvanised steel can provide. Additionally, all painted parts are powder coated for a lasting, maintenance-free finish . Base . Please ensure that when you build your concrete or flagstone base you insert a strong plastic membrane below the concrete or flagstones to prevent rising damp. Build your base no more than 30mm larger all round than the base measurements given below under technical information to allow rainwater discharging proud off your base at the sides of the Ballington. What is a Steel Foundation Kit and do I need one . It is a quick and easy way to create a suitable base for your metal shed after you have levelled your site and inserted a DPC Damp Proof Course below the foundation kit. It is manufactured using heavy-duty U channel framing, made from durable hot-dipped galvanized steel. The assembled foundation kit receives the shed base rails and flood out with concrete after the shed assembly is completed to give the perfect base. If the tongue and groove base option is selected, woodscrews and washers must be used we cannot supply to attach the shed to the timber floor. Woodscrews go through the shed’s inner base rail holes with the washer for each screw securing adequate purchase between wood screw base rail timber floor. Please Note The product or model name may differ on the packaging from that advertised however this does not affect the intrinsic product . Manufactured by BillyOh.com.
