A Tour of Our Bestselling Sheds
The Crown Jewels: Exploring
Empire Sheds’ Top Bestsellers
Every garden has its own personality, and no two space requirements are ever quite the same. But over the years, a few of our timber sheds have consistently risen to the top, becoming firm customer favourites across the UK.
Whether you’re curious about what other garden lovers are buying or looking for a gentle nudge in the right direction for your own outdoor setup, here is a showcase of our absolute bestselling Empire Sheds and why they’ve earned their top spots.
The Big Boss (14ft × 6ft)
If there were a hall of fame for heavy-duty garden buildings, the SMP14X6DD would be front and centre. This is the model people choose when they aren’t just looking for a bit of extra storage, they want a true outdoor workshop.
- Why it’s a bestseller: It boasts a massive 14-foot width built with premium 12mm tongue-and-groove cladding right throughout the walls, floor, and roof.
- Our recommendation: If you have ride-on mowers, bulky patio furniture, or dreams of setting up a permanent DIY workbench along a long feature wall, this double-doored beast is hands-down the one to pick.
The Crowd-Pleasing All-Rounder (8ft × 8ft)
Square layouts just work. The RPA8X8 takes that naturally balanced footprint and pairs it with a stylish reverse apex roof, making it one of the most attractive buildings in our lineup.
- Why it’s a bestseller: Positioning the wide entrance along the gable side completely changes how the interior feels. You get fantastic central headroom and a wider front profile that makes walking in and out a breeze.
- Our recommendation: If you want an airy, bright space where you can fit perimeter shelving on three walls, or even turn a corner into a cosy garden studio, you’ll love the symmetry of the 8×8.
The Garden Enthusiast’s Dream (10ft × 6ft)
Standard storage sheds are great, but gardeners who spend their weekends propagation-bound need something tailored to the craft. Enter the PPS10X6.
- Why it’s a bestseller: Designed as a dedicated potting shed, it features large windows fitted with 3mm toughened safety glass to flood the space with natural light, along with built-in staging shelves ready for your seed trays.
- Our recommendation: If your heart is set on germinating seeds, nurturing cuttings, and pottering around out of the wind, this gives you all the light of a greenhouse with the sturdy shelter of timber.
The Daily Workhorses (8×6ft and 10×6ft)
There’s a reason you’ll spot 8×6 and 10×6 pent sheds in back gardens right across the country. They hit the exact sweet spot between generous internal storage and preserving your lawn space.
- Why they’re bestsellers: The low-sloping pent roofline keeps these buildings looking neat and unobtrusive along fence boundaries, while the offset left-hand door leaves maximum wall area free inside.
- Our recommendation: Go for the P8X6L if you need reliable family storage for mowers, bikes, and barbecue gear. Step up to the P10X6L if you want that same sleek profile but need a little extra depth for seasonal kit.
The Space Saver (10ft × 4ft)
Not everyone has a massive open lawn to spare, which is precisely why the MP10X4DDW has built such a loyal following.
- Why it’s a bestseller: At just 4 feet deep, it’s engineered to hug long walls, fit into side access paths, or sit behind a garage. Yet, thanks to its wide double doors and integrated window, it never feels cramped inside.
- Our recommendation: If you have a long, shallow space along a boundary wall and want quick, full-width access to all your equipment without digging through clutter, this is your best match.
The Petite Performer (6ft × 3ft)
Proof that great things come in small packages, the P6X3L is our compact answer for tight spaces.
- Why it’s a bestseller: It packs the exact same high-grade tongue-and-groove construction as our largest workshops into an ultra-compact footprint that fits comfortably on small patios, courtyards, or balconies.
- Our recommendation: If you simply need a dry, secure home for long-handled garden tools, fold-up lawnmowers, and bags of compost without eating up your outdoor living area, this little store is ideal.
