STF Galvanised/Bare Metal Shepherds Hut Chassis
This type of heavy duty chassis is essential when building a modern shepherds hut, the extra weight from the interior cladding, double glazed windows, electrics, bathroom and/or kitchen etc. will put added stress on the chassis. Without the extra strength, the hut is liable to sag which will lead to future problems.
