Re: weather proof area

Hi @Matt2024,

 

Depending on how much effort you want to put into the project, you could create a timber frame for the walls and enclose them with cement sheeting. Here's a helpful guide: How to build a stud wall. Alternatively, you might like to use Bistro Blinds. Here's their installation guide: How to install bistro blinds. The blinds would be easy to install and provide a weatherproof area. For the side with the peaked roof, you'll need to run a horizontal timber across the space to mount to. You could then sheet between the horizontal timber and the peaked roof in the top section. You'll need to run vertical timbers between the horizontal timber and peaked roof to support the span across the width.

 

For any structural alterations of the shed, remember to check with the manufacturer for specific advice.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

Mitchell
