Workshop window placement for light and workflow — Southwick
Southwick buyers should begin by locating the largest workbench or machine and plan window positions to illuminate that primary workspace while avoiding glare. Note the intended layout: side or front-opening doors must allow unloading and tool movement; double doors give wider access for benches or bikes. Plan electrical points near benches and position windows for cross-ventilation if you will use chemicals or woodworking tools. Ensure the base is level, provide a slight threshold or ramp for access, and leave clearance for maintenance around window frames and external fixings. For metal sheds buyers, confirm the exact specification and delivery postcode before purchasing.

Delivery, installation and preparation
Delivery options vary by product and postcode. Installation is available on selected garden buildings. Always check the product's base requirements before ordering and make sure there is suitable access to the delivery or installation area.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure the usable garden area and allow space for access, doors, roof overhangs and maintenance. It is usually better to allow some spare internal storage space rather than buying to the exact minimum.
Can installation be arranged?
Installation is available on selected buildings. Availability depends on the product, postcode and base conditions, so our team will confirm the details before the order proceeds.
Do I need a base?
Yes. Every shed or garden building should stand on a firm, level and well-drained base. The base is the foundation underneath the building; it is different from the internal floor supplied with some sheds. Common options include concrete, paving slabs, timber frames and plastic base systems. Shop shed bases →
Do I need planning permission?
Many garden buildings in England can be installed under permitted development rights, subject to height, position and coverage limits. A key rule is that a building within 2 metres of a boundary is generally limited to 2.5 metres overall height. Listed buildings, flats and some restricted or designated properties need extra checks.
