Quality Construction
Globel® metal sheds are made to a high standard from the longest lasting 'hot-dipped' galvanized steel with pre-painted panels, and are virtually maintenance free, All Globel® buildings come with a 15-year manufacturer's limited warranty and lasting good looks. They won't crack or warp, and are both rot and rodent proof. The Globel® shed range doesn't come with a floor as standard, but optional wooden floors are also available.
Maintenance
The walls have been hot-dip galvanised and painted, both internally and externally, however they can be over-painted with a colour of your choice if required (specialist metal paint required). The internal framing has also been hot-dip zinc galvanised, and are made from solid heavy gauge steel. The Globel® steel shed range requires no maintenance other than the occasional cleaning of the main building and oiling of moving parts, which will ensure that your building lasts for many years.
Doors and Locking System
The Globel® Apex shed has internal sliding double doors as standard. Metal handles are designed to accept a padlock (not supplied) when both doors are closed together.
Straight-forward Assembly
Globel® metal sheds are supplied in flat-pack form with comprehensive assembly instructions . Metal sheds can be notoriously difficult to assemble, however this assembly is uncomplicated (only basic tools are required) and no professional experience is necessary. Normally 2 people can complete the job in 4-5 hours. A firm concrete base is recommended to make a sound job, however it can also be fitted to the optional steel foundation kit, or timber floor kit. Assembling your building yourself can be very satisfying and it has several advantages:- you probably won't have to wait as long for delivery, you can assemble it on a day suitable to you, and you'll save money! All sheds come with full assembly instructions, fixings and fastenings, but to give you a rough idea, here is an animated step-by-step assembly video.
