Product Description
The Lotus 5 foot fronted premium garden shed is an pent roof shed manufactured from high tensile, hot-dipped galvanised steel throughout.
a revolutionary development in the category of light clad metal sheds at a price that presents the best value available.
Lotus sheds are perfect for everywhere from gardens to caravan parks providing a rust-free, durable storage solution for a minimum warranty period of 15 years. These products are the highest specification lightweight metal garden sheds in the market. With high grade, 0.3 steel and paint finish with ventilated gables as standard.
The frame and base rails are made from solid heavy gauge galvanised steel and the parts and their fixings are simple and straightforward to assemble in the quickest possible time. Each door assembly has been designed with strength and simplicity. The door glide itself has been completely re-designed to provide a more stable and well balanced door opening.
Optional Foundation Kit:
The metal Foundation Kit is a self-assembled framework, formed with metal battens. Concrete is typically used to flood between the battens to make a concrete floor. Once built, you can either fill it with concrete or add a wooden floor to sit on top of the metal frame. A damp proof membrane (plastic sheet membrane) should be placed prior to installing your shed/base to limit condensation. If you have an existing concrete or slab base with a damp proof membrane you do not necessarily need the foundation kit.
Timber Floor Kit
A pressure impregnated wooden floor kit consists of pre-cut boards and battens assembled with fixings supplied offers a durable base to install your shed onto.
Anchor Hilti Kit
A set of ready to use Hilti screws to anchour your shed into concrete or flagstone bases.
All shed bases should be constructed on level ground with a damp proof membrane.
A foundation kit forms a steel grid over your damp proof membrane, allowing you either to fill with concrete or cover with marine ply to create an internal floor.
The timber base allows you to construct a wooden floor (using the instructions provided), place it on your level ground over your damp proof membrane and attach the shed to it. This is a quick, simple and cost effective solution to a garden shed base.

At Pure Garden Buildings, we offer a professional installation service taking the pressure off you. So if you require a shed installation in your garden or you’re an Architect, Developer, Business, School or Government Body we can take care of the build process for you.

After you have placed an order and a delivery date has booked, notify us and the install team will be in contact to make the necessary arrangements with you for your install.
Installation FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
The date for installation will be arranged with you by the installation team once a delivery date has been booked.
Fantastic stuff, your building will have already been delivered may be coming with the installer, if your building is delivered to you prior to the install date please check off the contents from the list on the instructions to make sure everything is present and correct.
Although we try and make sure everything is perfect we are all only human after all, so we ask you to quickly check and get in touch if you have any concerns so we can sort them out before the installer arrives.
We will pre-book an installation date with you in advance if you are not able to be in or grant access, then please let us know in advance or arrange for a friend or neighbour to be there in your place.
The installer will normally phone you the day before or the morning of your install date to check that everything is all still fine to go ahead (although we can not guarantee this service).
Your installer(s) should arrive within the timeframe agreed (if there is an unavoidable delay then will notify you as soon as reasonably possible).
When the installer/s arrive they will just double check that your base is suitable and everything is present for the installation, then they will start the erection process of your building for you.
The installers will be happy to answer any questions you may have. If you want to oversee the build they are more than happy for you to be there.
If you want to get on and leave them to it, they will be able to give you an estimated time that the install should be nearing completion.
Yes, you’re good to go! The installer will do their own checks of the building and then ask you to have a look with them, they will show you the completed job, take some photographs and ask you to sign for their work.

So there are no surprises on the day please read the following information about what is required.
1. There is clear access to the garden or assembly site.
2. It’s not further than 40 meters from the delivery point to the
assembly point. Although we can move the shed from one point to another for you, the price quoted only allows for a certain amount of time.
Long distances like rear access from further down a street, etc. will take more time that has not been quoted for in the standard price.
3. The ground is flat (not sloping for base kits).

5. Delivery and installation may not be on the same day.

with free parking close by. Permit holders only roads will require you to provide a permit.
9. Unless agreed in advance a person over the age of 18 must be available at the time of assembly.
1. We are unable to carry a shed through your
property. if a shed or garden building must be taken through a home then you will need to already have done this before the assembly team arrives or upon arrival.
2. If the assembly person or team arrives to find the
base is not suitable, the job may not be able to go ahead on that day, but the booking will still have to be paid in full.
3. If we are asked to and agree to install on a base
that is not suitable, then we do so on the understanding that you acknowledge this may affect the look and functionality of the building and we will not be held liable for issues that arise as a result.

5. If you have pets, the area must be free of any mess and properly cleaned before the assembly taking place.

2. The area is not partly paved, concrete, blocks, bricks or anything that will have to be removed before assembly.

Although we will make every effort to accommodate requests, these are best made in advance so there is no delay in the assembly service or unexpected surprises on the day.
Because we work with a number of different manufacturers and brands delivery and assembly won’t be on the same day.
Please understand that our standard pricing is simply for the assembly of a retail product and nothing else (Our installers are not builders, carpenters or electricians) and can not perform other tasks for you.
