8x12 Sunshed Garden Shed | The Ultimate Shed

The 8 ft. x 12 ft. Sunshed Garden Shed strikes the perfect balance between form and function. In other words, it looks fantastic while providing you with plenty of options on how to use the space. Use it as a greenhouse to get an early start on your growing season. Use it as a hobby house or retreat where the natural light creates the perfect creative environment, or just use it as a simple but beautiful storage solution. The point is, now you’ve got options with great style!

The panelized walls feature Western Red Cedar cladding already attached to the wall framing at our manufacturing facility.

When you add a shed to your shopping cart the price will default to a Standard Plywood Roof. You can leave it as is with the Standard Plywood Roof or you can choose to upgrade to either a Metal or Western Red Cedar Shingle Panelized Roofing System to best suit your needs!

Installation is easy and safe and requires no dangerous, time-consuming cutting. Simply screw or nail the components together with the supplied hardware.

Assembly takes two to three days to complete with a helper and the kit includes a detailed homeowner’s assembly manual. Weekend and evening assembly assistance is available through our toll-free customer support line at 1-888-658-1658.

The 31 in. wide Dutch Door (2 pieces) gives the shed a charming look while providing additional functionality for you. The Greenhouse is 587 cu. ft. and packs a ton of storage capacity due to its 85” high wall on one side. Eight functional aluminum windows with screens and locks offer great ventilation, while at the same time keeping the bugs out.

One side of the roof utilizes a 6mm thick twin wall Polygal panel that is translucent, allowing filtered light to pour in - great for growing all your vegetables and working in!

The 8 ft. x 12 ft. Sunshed Garden Shed also includes a 16 in. deep L-shaped full-wall workbench that makes a convenient place to work or store your supplies.

The Shed is made entirely with renewable resources and accepts a wide range of finishes to help you create a personalized look.

The entire unit ships on a pallet via a motor freight company directly to your residence. See our home delivery options to learn more!

Roof Options

Plywood Roof System

Plywood Roof System:

When you add a shed to our shopping cart the price will default to a Standard Plywood System. ½” thick plywood will be cut to size to fit properly on your rafters overhanging on front, rear and sides. Fasteners are included to secure plywood to roof rafters. You will need to purchase, at your own expense, the type of roofing material suitable – such as asphalt, metal, slate or solar.

Advantages:

  • More cost efficient, able to satisfy possible building department by-laws

Metal Roof System

Metal Roof System:

If you have decided on our Metal Roofing System, the following materials will be included with your shed kit:

  • 1x4 Western Red Cedar Roof Battens (cut to length)
  • 26 gauge Drip Caps
  • 26 gauge Galvalume Roof Panels
  • 26 gauge Ridge Caps
  • All necessary hardware to attach the roofing system correctly

Metal roofs are designed to attach to roof battens. Battens are supplied and cut to fit so no dangerous and time consuming cutting will be required.
Once battens are attached, install the Galvalume drip caps to front and rear facia.
‘Galvalume’ is similar to galvanized steel and is a hot-dip process. Instead of using 100% zinc as in a galvanized roof, the dip is 55% aluminum, 43.5% zinc and 1.5% silicon, providing additional weathering protection.

  • Zinc bonds with the steel surface to create a barrier for corrosion-causing moisture
  • Aluminum naturally resists corrosion and reflects heat
  • Silicon enhances the adhesion of the coating, keeping it in place when the steel is rolled, stamped or bent

Simply lift and secure precut Galvalume Roof Panels onto battens and secure with included self tapping screws.
Galvalume weighs 100 to 150 pounds per 100 square feet and contains about 35% recycled steel post-consumer content.

To complete, place Galvalume Ridge Cap on the apex of the shed and secure with supplied fasteners.

Western Red Cedar Shingle Roof System

Western Red Cedar Shingle Roof System:

If you have decided on our Western Red Cedar Roofing System, the following materials will be included with your shed kit:

  • Western Red Cedar Shingle Panels. Cedar Shingles will be already attached to the ½” plywood roof sheathing. Roofing paper will be included between plywood and shingles to prevent water penetration
  • Seam Filler Shingles – our proprietary designed Filler Shingles are included to be attached to roof panels to create a seamless and tight roof
  • Western Red Cedar Roof Ridge Caps
  • All necessary hardware to attach the roofing system correctly

Shingles will have a 6 ½” exposure to prevent premature cupping and deterioration of the shingle.Simply lift each panel up and place on roof rafters. Attach each panel and then position our proprietary filler shingle in roof seams.To complete, position roof ridge caps on roof apex and attach with supplied fasteners.
