Countryside Apex Summer House

Countryside Apex 8ft wide x 6ft

The Countryside Apex Summerhouse has been a favourite for more than 20 years and this picture illustrates why! From the moulded bargeboards and preservative treated Scandinavian pine cladding to the details such as toughened safety glass in the windows and secure locking double doors, every detail has been improved during that time. Installation by the manufacturer's own fitting team is an option which is almost universally chosen by our customers ... why not take advantage of their many years of experience!

The building pictured features an additional window on each side.

Another combination of options for the Countryside Apex are shown on this 10ft wide x 6ft deep building.

Redwood cladding

Our standard cladding on this summerhouse is 12mm deal ( pine ).  This is treated with a wash of quality wood preserver both inside and out before it leaves the factory.

This building is also available with 'Pressure treated' or Cedarwood cladding.

Pressure treated construction

Pressure treatment is literally that : all components of the building are placed in a large pressurised cylinder which forces the preservative deep into the timber. The formulation of the preservative gives our pressure treated summerhouses their green / yellow hue which complements so many gardens.

Good looks and an extended lifetime are the main benefits of choosing pressure treated construction.

Cedar Cladding

Cedar is well known for its durability, good looks and quality. With its own natural oils, it lasts for many , many years without rotting although we would advise you to treat it with a good quality wood preserver every couple of years to help maintain its good looks.

Our 'cedar' summerhouses contain cedar doors, windows and external cladding and trims. They have preservative treated redwood framing, floors and verandas ( where fitted ).

Optional Brass Pack Upgrade

Optional brass door handles, hooks, bolts and window casement stays can be added to your Summerhouse for good looks and durability.

The 3 lever lock is supplied with 2 keys.

Summerhouse window styles

There are 5 window styles available with our summerhouse range.

From L to R these are Plain, Square Lead, Diamond Lead, Georgian, and Full Length Glass.

The exact layout, numbers of windows, and positioning is discussed on the pages relating to each product but for a general overview this is a useful comparison.

Summerhouse roof finishes

Apart from being very attractive, you can choose an optional slatted roof in pressure treated timber or in cedar to extend the life of your building.

The standard green felt is also shown along with the no-cost option of red felt.
