Description
Is this the best-specified lightweight metal shed on the market today? Perhaps it's now time for you to see the Lotus 8x3 Apex Metal Shed for yourself.
The sturdy nature of its high tensile hot-dipped galvanized steel is undoubted, the shed is more durable than ever and, with a top-quality paint finish, is guaranteed rust-free.
Inside you'll find a spacious area where all kinds of items can be stored in a weatherproof and well-ventilated space that will be fully appreciated when you walk through the robust smooth sliding entry.
There is also a choice of options, a skylight to introduce more light, together with shelving and floor frames that will make the interior very 'user-friendly'.
An installation service is available, but assembly is quite easy following comprehensive instructions and, once located you will have a long-term storage solution.

Select Your Options
Would You Like A Floor Kit?
All Lotus Sheds are advised to be Installed on a hard standing surface base area. We offer either a metal foundation kit or a timber floor kit to aid with installation onto a stable surface. A damp proof membrane (plastic sheet material) should be placed prior to installing your shed/base to limit condensation.
Note: Only one foundation/floor kit below can be used, they are not designed to be both used together.
with Metal Foundation Kit (FK83)
A self-assembled framework, formed with metal battens. When installing your shed, the foundation frame is assembled first and then your shed is installed and bolted on top.
Once fully installed, concrete can be used to flood in between the interior battens to make a concrete floor inside or alternatively, timber plywood boards can be used over the top to form a wooden floor (concrete and timber not included).
with Timber Floor Kit (FL83)
A pressure impregnated wooden floor kit consists of pre-cut boards and battens which when assembled at home with the fixings purchased separately offers a durable base to install and bolt your shed down onto.
Additional Accessories
with Anchor Hilti Screws & Drill Bit (HH83)
A set of ready to use Hilti screws to anchor your shed down into concrete or flagstone bases, fitting through pre-drilled holes in the shed's base rail. Masonry drill bit (15/64ins) supplied.

Overall I'm happy with this shed
I am happy with this shed as I think it fitted gap in the market being 8'x3' my criteria was a shed of this exact size with sliding doors due to the space available, as far as metal sheds go it was fairly simple to construct although there were 4 holes left in the roof due to mass production but this was easily overcome by filling them with the huge amount of spare bolts ect left over. There was marks scuffs and scratches on certain panels out of the box which was dissapointing however most of them could be placed on the side or back where they cannot be seen once erected.

What size should the concrete base be?
We Replied:Dear Karen Thank you for your question. The base size of this shed is 234cm (7ft 8ins) x 82cm (2ft 8ins). We would recommend this size for the concrete base with perhaps a few extra inches either side to give it maximum stability.
