A steel shipping container would be ideal for an outdoor play shed – not all sheds have to be wooden after all! We can start by choosing the size of your container. A 10ft container would be perfect to fit in most back gardens. Now for the cosmetic transformation… As an example, we would start making the nondescript metal box into a homely “Wendy House” or “Castle Fort”, by building a wooden frame roof onto your container. Then, we would fully clad it horizontally. For further customisation, we can paint the container roof and walls. Perhaps red for the rood and the rest of it yellow. But of course, this type of children’s garden shed can be designed entirely to suit your, or you child’s, imagination. You can choose any colour or detail for your little play shed.

Next we can fit a personnel door so the little ones will find it easy to get in and out. We can also supply tie backs for these doors to ensure no little fingers will get trapped. No kids play shed is complete without windows. To get the look you want, we can fit a large variety of different sized and shaped windows into your container children’s shed.

Now your container looks the part, we can start on the inside. We suggest that you ply-line and insulate the walls, ensuring that no matter what the season, your outdoor play shed is not too hot or cold to play in. Now we are nearly ready to fit shelves and storage boxes along one wall, so that toys can easily tidied away neatly. If you are aiming for the “Wendy House” effect, all that’s left to do is fit your plastic cookers and sink! How about that for an instant container “Wendy House”?
