Apex Pro

DuraMax Apex Pro Series — The Premium Home-Styled Vinyl Shed with Skylights and Dual Entry

The DuraMax Apex Pro is the premium aesthetic tier of the DuraMax shed catalog — engineered for buyers who want the backyard structure to be a design feature, not just storage. Where the WoodBridge Plus delivers premium build quality at a workshop price point, the Apex Pro adds the architectural elements that make a shed read as a small backyard building: dual skylights on the roof, two large front windows, dual double-door entry (front AND side access), and a galvanized steel foundation that lifts the apex profile for proper water flow.

This collection features both Apex Pro configurations: the 10.5 x 8 for a premium walk-in shed at a compact footprint, and the 15 x 8 for the largest Apex Pro available — 120 square feet of natural-light-flooded backyard space that genuinely could pass for a small home from the curb. Both ship free with curbside lift-gate delivery automatically included and carry DuraMax's 15-year limited warranty.

The Two Apex Pro Models

Apex Pro 10.5 x 8 — The Entry Premium Model

The Apex Pro 10.5 x 8 (SKU 40116) delivers 84 square feet of walk-in floor space in the smaller of the two Apex Pro configurations. Two skylights on the roof flood the interior with natural daylight, two large front windows add additional ambient light and an architectural front facade, and the dual double-door system — wide front doors plus side doors on the long wall — gives unmatched access to stored equipment.

Best for buyers who want the premium Apex Pro aesthetic and lighting at a mid-size footprint, who value daily-use accessibility (the dual doors mean you don't have to walk around stored items to access something at the back), or who plan to use the space as a hobby or display area where natural light matters.

Price: $1,629 (regularly $2,019), or as low as $147.03/month with Shop Pay's 4 interest-free installments.

Apex Pro 15 x 8 — The Largest Apex Pro

The Apex Pro 15 x 8 (SKU 40216) extends the same premium feature set into a 120-square-foot footprint with a 15-foot-wide front facade. At this size, the Apex Pro reads less like a shed and more like a small backyard cottage — particularly when viewed from the house with the two front windows and dual skylights catching afternoon light.

The 15-foot width opens up storage and use configurations that smaller sheds can't accommodate: a full workshop bench on the long wall with room for a miter-saw station, a riding mower with garden equipment lined up alongside, multiple motorcycles or ATVs with walking space between, or a hobby room with bench, shelving, and dedicated display space.

Price: $1,989 (regularly $2,599), or as low as $179.52/month with Shop Pay.

What Makes the Apex Pro Different From Every Other DuraMax Shed

The Apex Pro shares some DNA with other premium DuraMax lines (WoodBridge Plus, StoreMax Plus) but adds five specific features that set it apart:

• Two skylights on the roof. No other DuraMax model has dual roof skylights. The StoreMax Plus 10.5 x 8 has one skylight; the Apex Pro doubles it. The result is natural daylight inside the shed throughout the day, eliminating the need for electrical lighting during use.
• Two large front windows. Other DuraMax models include one side window (or none). The Apex Pro adds two front windows mounted on the architectural front facade — both for additional natural light and for the "looks more like a home" exterior aesthetic.
• Dual double-door entry — front AND side. This is the Apex Pro's signature feature. Wide front double doors PLUS additional side double doors on the long wall give you two separate access points. You can walk through the shed without backtracking, organize storage in zones with separate access, or position the shed where you'd want entry from two different yard directions.
• Galvanized steel foundation that lifts the apex. The foundation framing kit doesn't just include the floor — it includes a galvanized steel structure that elevates the apex roof profile slightly off the ground, improving water flow and preventing pooling around the base. Minor detail, major impact on long-term durability.
• Four slotted vents for airflow. Most DuraMax sheds include 2 vents; the Apex Pro doubles ventilation capacity to manage heat, humidity, and condensation in the larger interior volume.

What Every Apex Pro Model Includes

• Foundation floor framing kit included with galvanized-steel apex-lift structure (finish with plywood or concrete, not included)
• Fire-retardant vinyl resin construction — safe for storing gasoline, paint, and pool chemicals that polyethylene sheds aren't rated for
• Heavy-duty galvanized steel interior beams, columns, and trusses for unmatched structural strength and snow load capacity
• Tall walk-in interior height — adults stand fully upright with room above
• Two skylights on the roof for maximum natural daylight
• Two large front windows for light control and front-facade aesthetics
• Wide and high double-entry front doors plus double side doors for dual-direction access
• 20 lb/sq ft snow load tested on the 10.5 x 8; higher capacity on the 15 x 8
• Padlock-ready door handles on both front and side doors
• Heavy-duty interior columns for mounting shelves, pegboards, and garden-tool racks directly to walls
• Four slotted vents for proper interior airflow
• Won't rust, dent, rot, or mildew. Never needs painting. Impervious to wood-eating insects.
• 15-year DuraMax limited warranty — the longest in the industry
• Free FAST shipping with curbside lift-gate delivery automatically included

Apex Pro 10.5 x 8 vs 15 x 8 — How to Choose

• Pick the Apex Pro 10.5 x 8 if you want the premium feature set at a more compact footprint, or if your installation space won't accommodate a 15-foot-wide structure. Best for mid-size suburban backyards where the 15 x 8 would dominate.
• Pick the Apex Pro 15 x 8 if you have the yard space and want the largest Apex Pro available, plan to use the shed as a hobby room or workshop, or want the maximum visual presence as a backyard architectural feature. Best dollars-per-square-foot value in the Apex Pro line.

Apex Pro vs Other Premium DuraMax Sheds

vs. WoodBridge Plus 10.5 x 8 ($1,239): The WoodBridge Plus 10.5 x 8 delivers nearly identical interior capacity (84 sq ft) at $390 less. The differences: the Apex Pro adds 2 skylights + 2 front windows + dual double-door entry + galvanized-steel apex-lift foundation. Choose the WoodBridge Plus if you prioritize value and don't need the dual access or extensive natural lighting; choose the Apex Pro if the aesthetic upgrade and dual-direction entry are worth the premium.

vs. StoreMax Plus 10.5 x 8 ($1,229): The StoreMax Plus has one skylight, one window, and single-direction door access. The Apex Pro doubles each of those plus adds the side double doors and apex-lift foundation. Choose the StoreMax Plus for value pricing with skylight; choose the Apex Pro for maximum natural light and dual-direction access.

vs. Insulated Buildings: The Apex Pro is not insulated — interior temperatures track outdoor conditions. If you need year-round comfortable use for office, gym, or studio purposes, choose an insulated building instead. The Apex Pro is the premium choice for storage and occasional-use spaces, not for full-time human occupancy.
