The Tiger Shiplap Apex shed is one of Tiger Sheds more prominent and popular products. One fundamental reason for it being our bestseller comes from its superior grade tongue and groove shiplap cladding. Its classic design makes it one of the most popular garden sheds in the UK. The cladding, emphasising rigidity and security, comprises of a high quality selected European softwoods, protected with a TigerSkin water based treatment. This makes the Tiger Shiplap Apex Shed an excellent and aesthetically pleasing product providing an ideal storage space. The roof of the Tiger Shiplap Apex Shed is covered with a layer of heavy duty black mineral felt for further protection.
Internally, the ultra strong rounded four corner framework provides additional structure and strength to the overall garden shed. Another major benefit of the apex style is its increased internal height. Furthermore, a great reason to purchase this model is the stylish windows supplied as standard; The Tiger Shiplap Apex Shed has been designed to allow the customer the option to choose which side of the garden shed they want the windows to be positioned during assembly. The large well braced single access door on the shed’s gable end provides more than sufficient access to store large outdoor products such as barbeques and bicycles. This door incorporates a high security lock and key system, which is supplied free with the model.
It is essential that this garden shiplap apex shed is assembled strictly in accordance with the instructions supplied on a firm and level base constructed from a suitably durable material. It 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 watertight sealant.

Tiger buildings are constructed with shiplap cladding, which is superior tongue & groove timber board with a flush-fit finish. Each solid plank is 12mm thick with scalloping to help prevent water ingress. A smooth, solid, strong barrier pre-treated to meet our high quality standards.
All Tiger sheds are made with tongue & groove timber boards throughout – no cheap and crumbly OSB board at all (unlike some companies we could mention). Our timber is sustainably sourced. We use slow grown European softwood, cut in our woodmill to a high grade.
Tiger garden buildings come with TigerFelt® as standard. This is a thicker, polyester-backed high-grade mineral felt to provide a reliable, weatherproof barrier with reduced wear and tear. Only premium quality roofing felt will do!
We use slow-grown timber in our framing to provide the sturdy support your shed needs. Sustainably sourced, it’s over an inch thick, and rounded for a smoother finish. Slow-grown timber is better quality, and the heavyweight 28x44mm thickness will help the building stand the test of time.
All Tiger buildings come with solid, coated steel fittings for a secure, elegant finish for your peace of mind. Unlike many competitors, all Tiger buildings come with a free door pull as standard.
Beware of imitations which use cheaper styrene plastic windows (which tend to ‘mist’ over time). All Tiger windowed sheds & summerhouse come with 3mm thick toughened glass as standard. This glazing is more shock and heat resistant than normal shed windows, making your Tiger all the more durable. TigerFlex® models also arrive with the glass pre-fitted, making assembly even easier!
We treat our timber with TigerSkin, a specially formulated preservative, developed over many years – for a non-greasy weatherproof seal. This pre-treatment applied to the wood and then carefully dried to give your shed an extra layer of protection 365 days a year.
Your Tiger garden building is simple to put together, using the helpful instructions available, and will look great on a firm & level base constructed from a suitably durable material. We also offer an installation service for all Tiger log cabins.
All Tiger buildings are made to exactly the same high standards, with exactly the same quality timber – so they get exactly the same market-leading Tiger 20 Year Guarantee. Tigers are built to last for decades.

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.
To change a single shed door so that it opens outwards the other way, remove the door by unscrewing the hinges from the shed panel the door is fixed into.
Then rotate the door and place it back into the doorway.
Screw the hinges into the shed panel on that side, supporting the door from the inside.
Then reorientate the lock on the door - so unscrew it from the block on the back of the door frame, turn it 180 degrees and screw back on to the block (use the key for guidance for the best position).
The video guide at https://www.tigersheds.com/helpcentre/videos/ shows how to do all this. it is best done as a two-person job.
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.
Fastfit Warm Floors are simple to fit and ideal for playhouses. Available in a selection of colours, they can brighten any child's play space, and are tough, durable and easy to clean and maintain.
There is a video guide to fitting a warm floor in the Help Centre video library - click here or visit www.tigersheds.com/helpcentre/videos/
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.
Every Tiger model has a set of helpful instructions to help assemble the building. A copy will be sent with your delivery, but there will be an electronic version on the product page in the DOWNLOADS section you can access. All the instructions can also be found in the Help Section in the Instructions library.
