Description
Palram Canopia® 4×6 SkyLight™ DECO Apex Shed (Grey)
Palram Canopia® Polycarbonate SkyLight™ sheds were designed, developed and built to last; made of virtually unbreakable polycarbonate panels reinforced with a non-rust aluminium frame for high durability and strength. SkyLight™ sheds do not fracture, withstanding extreme weather conditions such as hail & high temperatures. A unique feature of this shed is its Polycarbonate Skylight roof. The innovative roof panels transmit natural light throughout the day while having an opaque external visibility for maximum privacy and block the harmful UV rays; there is no need for expensive and vulnerable windows or unsafe electric lights. The SkyLight™ Polycarbonate shed is manufactured in several sizes from 6×3 to 6×12, and in several colours, however not all models are available in the UK.

Palram Canopia® SkyLight™ Shed panels are flexible and super strong. The polycarbonate used is one of the strongest materials available, as you can see from the video below:
Quality Construction
Palram Canopia® Polycarbonate panels are made from the strongest materials available on the market. Polycarbonate sheets are flexible and very easy to carry, yet retain high quality and strength for many years, without changing its colour or shape. It is very light, easy to handle, and completely safe. DIY installation is easy due to the straightforward step-by-step assembly instructions. The manufacturer offers a 10-Year warranty on this model, however despite coming with a padbolt (ready to accept a padlock), this shed isn’t really designed to be highly secure, therefore you should consider additional security measures if storing valuable items.

Palram Canopia® sheds are maintenance free and washable. Unlike wooden or metal sheds that may be damaged from rust, rot, peel, colour fading and excessive weather wear and tear, Palram Canopia’s Skylight Shed require zero attention and are cost effective no painting or surface treatment are needed.

Lionel Hornby –
Extremely happy with the shed; neat and compact. The fitters (Nathan & Emily) were very helpful and super quick.
Craig O’Donnell –
Erected the shed without any problems, straight forward. It looks good and is a very good shed.
Mark Ford –
Strong once built. Comes with clear instructions and all parts are numbered. Needs a flat hard service as the floor is flimsy.
Ray –
The lightweight and flimsy panels do not fill you confidence as you unwrap the box. More worrying was the way the box had been handled with all of the aluminium parts rattling around inside. On opening, it was clear that we would spend a long time repairing these parts. Many were crushed so there was no way that the polycarbonate panels were going to fit in there while others had even split the metal although not anywhere structural. As a result, there are plenty of plier marks all over them now. Was this a result of the delivery company used by the vendor, the storage or a problem with the packing used. The latter could obviously be improved to prevent either of the others having an effect and so loses one star.
Due to the fact we needed to place the shed in an area which was barely wider than the shed and behind a wall that made the approach narrower than the shed, we assembled the roof on the lawn and then assembled the base and walls in position. The roof could then be lifted into position on top of the walls and dropped into the slots with a little manoeuvring. No access was then required to either side of the shed.
A little adjustment was required to get the door to close cleanly but nothing worse than expected with any door.
Screwing the shed down onto the pacing slabs was the toughest task of the lot but it felt much more solid on completion.
The shed was treated with 50-60mph winds within days of putting it up and it survived.
Mike Worsley –
Make sure your base is as level as you can get it, it makes the shed assembly so much easier
Good points:
1. Good instructions – assembles in a logical fashion
2. No missing parts
3. Everything went together easily
4. If you are assembling the shed in an area where it is difficult to access the back or sides, it is light enough to move the whole shed to gain access even when it is near-fully assembled (Obviously this is before you fix it down)
Bad points:
The floor is not as strong as I would have hoped and can be torn easily. If you are storing pointed or sharp objects (e.g. garden forks) put some plywood on the floor for them to sit on.
Alan Burgess –
Really pleased with our shed. The panels appear flimsy but they are strong and with the aluminium frame (which I’ve then fixed to the adjacent summer house) it’s great and an excellent choice over the alternative wooden option and a good colour too.
