Shed Door Sill Replacement?

Hi 

Can anyone recommended an economical wooden shed door sill source? Online these can run for around £50 which would make for an expensive repair with wood treatment and exterior paint.

    If it's only that area and it isn't too weak, you could just repair it. Dry if damp then wood hardener, filler and paint.

    Can confirm wood hardener is a wonderful product.  I repaired some rotten bits on my old porch/shelter which would have been a pain to replace.  Once filled, sanded and painted it made for a very good repair.

    Looks like an external door casing, so £50 is not too bad for a cill. And looks like it been repaired before.
