The Billyoh Sentry Box – Our first impressions
This is a really special storage box, it is incredibly stylish yet still practical and is constructed from strong, durable wood which is both hard wearing and long lasting. The tongue & groove cladding gives it extra strength and the upright design allows you to store tall pieces of gardening equipment with minimum fuss and as it is tall rather than wide it means that it will fit even in limited spaces. This comes complete with shelving inside. Felt roof and engineered board gives you weather protection and the Apex roof gives it so much visual appeal – a great choice for every gardening enthusiast. The unique shape of the Billyoh Sentry Box makes it a great choice for keen gardeners as the storage would prove excellent for spades, rakes, ladders, brushes and similarly tall items that can be awkward to store. Whether used as your main outdoor and garden equipment storage solution or as a secondary storage facility for those taller items you find difficult to store elsewhere, this sentry box is an attractive building for your garden.

With an instruction manual included, featuring detailed instructions and easy-to-follow diagrams, assembly should be a breeze. All parts, fixtures and fittings are included, only requiring you to provide a basic set of tools.
