7′ x 5′ Forest 4Life 25yr Guarantee Overlap Pressure Treated Apex Wooden Shed (2.18m x 1.64m)

Overview

This 7 x 5 Forest 4Life apex shed gives a generous amount of storage space for bikes, tools and garden equipment, built from pressure treated overlap cladding that needs no painting to perform. The apex roof is a familiar, practical shape that suits most gardens, and a window keeps the interior from feeling like a dark box when you are searching for something stored at the back.

Key Features

Overlap cladding boards are fitted in horizontal layers so each board sheds water onto the one below rather than letting moisture sit against the timber. The pressure treatment process means this protection runs through the wood, not just across its surface.

Roof Types

The apex roof has two panels meeting at a central ridge, the most widely used shape for a shed of this size. It gives useful headroom in the middle of the building and copes well with rain and light snow.

Dimensions

• Width: 2.18m (7′)
• Depth: 1.64m (5′)
• Apex roof with central ridge
• Single door with one window

Construction

The frame and overlap boards are pressure treated pine, chosen for its balance of cost and durability in outdoor structures. Panels are pre cut and numbered at the factory to simplify the build.

Treatment & Guarantee

A 25 year guarantee against rot comes as standard on this 4Life shed, backed by the pressure treatment process used on every board. There is no need to apply preservative yourself to keep that guarantee valid.

Doors & Windows / Security

One window and a single front door give a practical balance between natural light and simple access. The door is fitted with a hasp and staple so you can fit your own padlock for extra security.

Assembly Information

Flat packed with clear instructions, this shed suits a weekend build for two people with ordinary tools. Preparing a square, level base in advance makes the whole process considerably smoother.

Delivery Information

Delivery is on a pallet to your kerbside, so check that gates and pathways can take the panel sizes before you order. You will need help moving the panels from the delivery point to the build site.

Optional Upgrades

A heavy duty felt upgrade and a timber floor or base kit are sensible additions, particularly if the shed will not sit on a hard standing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this shed come with a floor? No, you will need a firm, level base prepared before assembly.

Can I choose a windowless version? Yes, the windowless 4Life apex shed shares the same footprint if you prefer no glazing.

How long does assembly usually take? Most people complete it in a weekend with a second pair of hands.
