Prior to 10 X 7 shed arrival I looked at all options to build a secure and dry base. I decided to use bearers as laying shed on slabs or concrete allows heavy rain to soak the shed floor. When searching round I found 150X65X2100 mm concrete window lintels were far superior and rot free compared to timber. Visited a few local building merchants and they averaged about £16 each but found internet prices were about £6 each. Tiger suggest using 6 bearers but at £6, I laid down 11 but did not adjust until shed floor arrived and will explain this part later. Because I ordered the extra sized heavy frame the panels were much heavier than normal and the driver helped me position them round the base and he gave a few good tips and much appreciated. I laid the two section floor on the concrete lintels and adjusted making sure of levels and square on. 2100 mm lintels were a perfect fit for base leaving 25mm overhang both sides. I removed base then laid a concrete mix between bearers away from sides to steady levelled to perfection and still allowing vital airflow. I decided to spray panels that day and started erecting shed the next morning. After reading instructions I decided to put all sides on, bolt home but did not nail down frame until roof was fitted after reading on the net this can be a problem. The shed was complete after a couple of hours and neighbours have said it is solid construction with no movement or creaking when walking on the floor area. Obviously the extra strength frame and extra concrete lintels helped tremendously. Last week it rained and I decided to install a water butt. Unless you buy shed gutters that clip on to eve of roof and rip the felt I opted for Wickes own brown mini-fit gutters, were expensive and 100 litre water butt £19.99. Problem from shed sides the clips are not long enough so I improvised and used cant rails that you would use for featheredged boundary fencing. They are just less than 50mm depth and tuck nicely up to roof structure, and cut to size between side panels beading that came out as 2960mm each. Before fitting to shed I screwed on gutter brackets with fall to drain sides and measured out so stopend cap and stopend drain fit close to shed barge boards. With the gutter system built I cut noggins of cant rail to fit the opposite inside adjacent to out gutter rail and pre-drilled pilot holes. I offered the cant rail and fittings to shed and making sure the felt was suspended in the gutter and held it in position. My wife was on the inside of the shed and put screws through pilot holes and secured to outer cant rail. After checking and putting more screws to secure, I then secured noggins to the frame and repeated action on other side of shed. The rain butt is now positioned at the rear of shed so drain pipe is only 100mm high and two micro-fit downpipe bends as to divert towards centre of shed with slight fall. The downpipe bends on Wickes micro fit are 112 degrees so I cut short on drain pipe as not to overshoot water butt. Fitted bend and angled into water butt and fitted the end bit called water pipe shoe. I opted for brown guttering but grey is cheaper but just your preference. I am very pleased with the build quality and ease of construction and would recommend Tiger Sheds.

Bought the 8x6 ship lap shed and I am very pleased with it. It was very easy to erect and I feel it is securely bolted to get her.

A great shed at a competitive price. Delivered on time by 2 very helpful guys. The instructions were very clear ( and with the helpful video) took my wife and I about 2 hours to erect. Highly recommended.

We wanted a decent shed to keep our garden tools in, with limited space available we picked the 6 x 4 and had the door reversed to open left to right. The delivery driver was very helpful & told me it would need to be painted with a wood preserver asap. It was very easy to put together although a couple of long screws were missing but not a problem. The shed arrived on time & very orange, not for long though. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend my friends & family as we are extremely happy with their excellent sheds and service. Well done Tigersheds.

Shed took a little longer than the initial 2 week timeframe to be delivered, and had 2 coach screws missing, however as luck would have it I had 2 identical spares from a previous product! The shed was a breeze to put up and is pretty sturdy. Happy to recommend despite the pro-longed delivery and missing screws.

Cannot praise tigersheds highly enough. My order was handled incredibly well - wish all online ordering was as good - so when it did arrive on the day I was delighted with it's quality. The delivery guy was incredibly helpful too, with useful advice and it paid dividends when we constructed the shed that weekend.

Awesome, compact little den. Very well constructed, easy to assemble. Our boys absolutely love it. Completed the look with some authentic British Army Camo netting! Great service from Tigersheds. Highly recommend.

I love my shed!! I found the price, the service, everything excellent! I have just turned it into a beach-type house. I bought it because I wanted somewhere to sit 'outside' on those chilly evenings. The amount of windows lets me do this without feeling really enclosed. Putting the shed up was no problem at all for just two of us. I liked the video about how to put the shed up very good but I would say I thought the instructions on paper could have been a little clearer with more detail. Thank you Tiger sheds!

I have purchased and assembled a Javan 14 X 12 cabin with double glazing in September 2012. The material and build quality are top. It was easy to assemble the log cabin in just one day or maybe two if you are not so handy. Some of the instructions could be of better quality and some pictures are not very clear. You probably need a second hand to help especially with the roof. Anyway got round this and I'm very pleased with the cabin. Top product!

We purchased 2 of the delta log cabins. One 16 x 10, and one 18 x 10 modified to have windows where the door is, and the doors on the gable end. We also paid for the double glazing and shingles. The delivery was bang on time. The assembly was quick and relatively easy once the pieces were sorted. You need 2 people especially for the roof spars. We also ran out of clout nails. The other thing they do not tell you, is that once you have the double glazed doors assembled, there is no way 2 people can lift it off the ground. We got round it by having less logs, and simply lifting it up, so it slid onto the base log, but you do have to be careful that the door does not fall over whilst a few more logs are built up around it. The shingles are well worth the extra expense,as they look very durable and give an attractive look to the finished cabin. Easy to fit too.We think the storm spars need a washer on the nut,as it would be easy to tighten it too much. Once we have insulated the floor and the roof, and put some power in, they will make a couple of terrific all weather workshops. For the quality of the construction, and the finish, we do not consider these to be overly expensive. cheers John

I ordered a 6x4 Tiger Security Apex Shed online in April 2013. I was kept informed of the progress of my order and was given a clear delivery date and expected time of delivery. The shed arrived as promised. The shed is of excellent quality and I would recommend the company and its products to friends and family
