All Keter sheds are waterproof and weather resistant, making them perfect for everyday storage of garden furniture and equipment.

Are Keter Sheds Any Good?

The majority of Keter sheds have DUOTECH walls, such as the Oakland and Artisan ranges. DUOTECH is exclusive to this brand, and is the combination of plastic and resin materials. These two elements provide an incredibly durable, strong and maintenance-free building. The thick, double-wall construction, combined with internal reinforcements retain a natural look & feel, and are easy to clean. You can still paint the shed, should you wish to choose a colour which better reflects the style of your garden. With the Newton range this material is taken a step further, as the walls also include wooden elements to give it the look of a wooden shed, but with all the durability bonuses of plastic/resin. Strength and resilience to the effects of the weather is important with all sheds, in particular those in plastic, which these sheds have, giving you peace of mind. We’ve previously looked at 5 reasons to purchase a Keter shed in a blog which is worth a read.
