WThe Tiger XL Heavyweight Workshop Heavy Duty wooden workshop is the perfect space for work, DIY, business or creative pastimes. There's an extra large range of sizes available, each equipped with extra high eaves height for more headroom, to create a versatile garden space. High quality tongue and groove shiplap cladding, protected with a TigerSkin water based treatment, is supported by heavy duty rounded four corner framework, with a heavy duty roof truss provides further strength. Both the floor and roof are made from tongue and groove timber milled almost half an inch thick, and the roof is further protected with a layer of high quality heavy duty black mineral roofing felt. The ultra strong rounded four corner framework is double the standard thickness - which not only allows for more secure structural support, but also provides a frame for any additional insulation boards or padding you may want to add.
BEWARE OF CHEAP IMITATION GARDEN SHEDS:
Unlike many budget competitor products this garden shed is built with only the highest quality materials and many garden buildings in the market simply cannot compare!
THIS HEAVY DUTY WORKSHOP is clad with high grade 12mm finish shiplap tongue and groove cladding – beware of sheds that feature poorly finished rough edged boards milled out of inferior timber often with a thinner finish.
THIS HEAVY DUTY WORKSHOP features heavyweight ‘rounded 4 corner’ 28x44mm finish framework throughout giving it the strength to last – beware of sheds that use rough sawn ‘matchstick thin’ framework that barely hold the shed together.
THIS HEAVY DUTY WORKSHOP features thick tongue and grooved floorboard in the floor and roof sections and contains NO cheap sheet materials such as OSB or chipboard – beware of sheds that use single piece OSB / chipboard roofs that offer little protection in the areas where you need it most.
THIS HEAVY DUTY WORKSHOP retains our extra high ridge height – beware of sheds that are incredibly low making it difficult to stand up inside.
It is essential that this garden shed is assembled strictly in accordance with the instructions supplied on a firm and level base constructed from a suitably durable material. The workshop shed should also be treated shortly after assembly and then annually thereafter with an appropriate high quality preservative and all glazing units must be sealed, inside and out, with silicone or other water tight sealant.
For more information on how to correctly assemble and maintain your garden shed please consult our comprehensive help centre.

It is essential that all garden buildings are assembled on a firm and level base constructed from an appropriate and durable material.
Without the correct base, buildings may be very difficult to assemble. In many cases, an incorrect base may lead to future deterioration of the product if assembly cannot be completed correctly as a result. Problems may include doors dropping out of square and becoming difficult to open and close, and/or water leakage.
Assembling a garden building on an incorrect base is also likely to invalidate any guarantee that your product may carry.
For full details and examples of how to create an appropriate base visit our Build a Base Guide.
Unlike many sheds in the market, a Tiger shed will already come with a door lock and key as standard (and a free door pull). For added security, you can add a hasp and staple to your door, and they are easy to fit using both screws and holding bolts.
First place the staple on your shed at the desired level next to the door: position so the holding bolt(s) for the hasp will fit into the door's framing. Screw in place but leave some slots open for the later Insertion of holding bolts. The align the hasp with the staple to position it on the door, and mark its location on the door. Open hasp to reveal the fixing holes and screw hasp in place using at least 2x screws. Then fix the holding bolts: drill through the open slots on the hasp and staple into shed and door frame; tap each bolt through and add a washer and nut for each bolt; then tighten until secure. Then add your chosen padlock.
For a quick video guide, visit www.tigersheds.com/helpcentre/videos/ or click here to see how it is done.
If you would like to add window beading to your shed, select the Window Glazing Kit from the Window Options as you customise your shed.
To fix, apply sealant evenly around the inner window frame, then place window pane into the frame and press carefully to bond the sealant.
Position the beading around the inner frame and gently tap into place, starting with the top beading. Secure with panel pins (x3 left and right, x2 top and bottom).
Then apply the clear sealant evenly around the outer window edge.
There is an easy video guide to follow at in the Tiger Help Centre.
DO NOT mistake the long corner strips supplied with your shed for window beading.
TigerFlex sheds are delivered with fitted windows together with beading so do not require additional beading.
This is a very helpful accessory to keep your garden building door(s) open when you need easy access or additional ventilation on hot days. Hook and eye sets are simple to fit, and there are also helpful videos in the Help Centre here (or visit https://www.tigersheds.com/helpcentre/videos/).
Firstly, to find the best position, hold hook level on building suitable for good placement of eye on door. The eye location should match door framing on inside door, away from any glazing. Mark hook location on building (use spirit level if preferred). Then screw in the hook at chosen position.Then use the fixed hook to relocate the eye on the door and mark its location. Screw the eye into door frame - and the hook should fit securely into eye.
The metal post fits into the shed framing to add a secure anchor for bikes and other contents. For guidance, please see the relevant video available in the Help Centre at https://www.tigersheds.com/helpcentre/videos/
