Keter Manor Outdoor Apex Double Door Garden Storage Shed 6 x 5ft Beige Brown Wood effect | Fade Free | All Weather Resistant | Safe and Secure | Zero Maintenance | 15 year Warranty

My son bought this for me as a dog grooming station. When we first unpacked it I was a bit sceptical – the materials are very light weight. However, structural design is ingenious and once constructed it is surprisingly sturdy. He managed to put it together, almost entirely on his own, inside of 5 hours. And he is a computer nerd – not remotely “handy”. (This experience may have converted him!) Construction was simple, instructions were easy to follow, all the pieces were there and clearly labelled. At the end we had a few screws left over, which was useful since we lost a couple along the way. I definitely recommend having a second pair of hands available to push against while fitting pieces together but, quite honestly, the second person is going to spend most of the time making tea during this exercise.We have put it on a base, in a fairly sheltered position, so I don’t expect any weather related problems.It might be a bit too light weight if you are bashing about with heavy equipment all day, or needing to roll or drive machinery over the lip of the door frame. I’d also be reluctant to use it for storing any high value items. Although the doors are lockable, I suspect it might be quite easy to just break through the walls.For my purposes, I couldn’t be more thrilled with this product. One tiny disappointment is that the window doesn't open. Overall, it is everything I could have wished for, I love it!

I built this over summer 2024 took no time to install , the roof was the only fiddly bit and does need 2 persons to fit , the rest can easy be done solo . since then there have been 2 major storms and its stood solid thru both . well worth the money I paid

Bought this shed during Black Friday deals, so got at a great price, £290 cheaper than currently on sale. On the plus side, once it’s finished, it looks great and is waterproof, surviving Storm Darragh, although I battened down the roof with rope just to ensure it survived the 50mph gusts we had locally. On the minus side, potential buyers should be aware of the following….1. It is not 6ft x 5ft as stated, it is several inches shorter in both dimensions. 2. The roof is a nightmare to secure, and the design could be much better. 3. It takes a long while to erect as there are so many parts, screws etc. ensure you have an electric drill with screw bits and be prepared for drilling into metal parts as well as the plastic. In all, I am happy with the shed, and it looks good and keeps items nice and dry with hopefully zero maintenance. Well worth what I paid for it, but not the current asking price of almost £650.

I bought the Keter Manor 6x5 plastic shed to replace an old disused greenhouse which had seen better days. I was able to specify the delivery date for a week later which allowed time to clear the greenhouse. I found the base not as smooth and even as I thought so decided to form a new base using plastic grid units on a bed of sand and filled with shingle. The shed was delivered by two men on time and placed where I requested. It was one box which was very heavy.This is where work paused due to the extreme heat in July and the box remained sealed for almost two weeks until the weather cooled down, fortunately it is possible to download the instruction book from the Keter website and I was able to study this before starting work, also a number of online videos helped. The instructions are comprehensive and if followed, almost idiot proof - but not quite in my case as there are a couple of parts that have very similar code numbers and look the same, but are different. No great problem as I realised my mistake before getting too far. In fact I had no damaged or missing parts and there were a few spare screws included.Photos one and two show the basic floor and walls erected, I put down some loose rubber mats to protect the floor during construction.I did the complete assembly on my own but needed help to get the roof on, it's not too heavy just unwieldy, in fact it took three men pushing, grunting and cursing, plus a woman to supervise, to finally get it correctly in place, that was the most difficult part of the whole job.I decided to lay some chipboard loft decking and insulation to protect the plastic floor from foot traffic and sharp objects and finished off inside with a couple of fly mesh vents.It took me the equivalent of about two and a half days to build on my own plus some help with the roof, but I'm nearly eighty, a younger person could do it a lot quicker. You also need a decent electric screwdriver as there are literally dozens of screws!Overall I'm very happy with the finished item, it looks smart and does the job.

This shed is great for our small garden. It's plastic - so some may not like the move from wood.I can see the small critique of the lock being vulnerable - but most sheds are vulnerable to being broken into! I never lock mine - as I don't have anything hig value in it - apart from a cheap lawnmower from Argos.I like the internal height - it allows me to lean a step ladder upright against the sides.I also bought some loft board to strengthen the floor (it dents very easily) - a tip I got from YouTube.I'm going to get some racking off Amazon a bit later and take advantage of the internal height space.I'm getting a bit older now - and decide to spend some extra money on it being assembled for me. A bit pricey - but well worth it. The two guys that came had it up in an hour - and saved me from potential arguments with the wife - and maybe the odd dented panel etc. if I did it 😂.That being said - it didn't seem too hard for two experienced DIY-ers ; an electric screwdriver is essential for this job.

The Shed arrived quickly, well packaged and had all its parts. Made from a tough good quality plastic, it’s well designed and everything was clearly marked for easy cross referencing with it’s instructions. It took two of us approx 4 hours to assemble but it was well worth it. Since assembly, it’s been battered by lots of wind and rain and remains dry inside. Would I recommend it. Absolutely.
