Construction
The Forest Beckwood range is built from shiplap timber cladding over a braced timber frame, with a apex roof deck ready for the supplied felt. Boards interlock closely for rigidity, and the floor uses solid timber bearers and boarding able to carry tools or furniture without flexing.
Treatment & Guarantee
Every board is pressure treated at the factory, which is why Forest Beckwood sheds carry a 25-year guarantee against rot. Re-treatment is not required to keep it weatherproof, though an annual check of the felt and door hardware is good practice, and you can paint or stain over it if you wish.
Doors & Windows
Wide double doors make it easy to wheel a mower, bikes or furniture in and out, opening back flat against the walls. Windows either side let in daylight, useful if it doubles as a potting or hobby space.
Assembly Information
Supplied as a flat-pack kit of pre-cut, pre-drilled sections with felt and fixings included. A two-person job, typically a day from base to roof, with a drill, hammer and spirit level to hand. Getting the base level first pays off throughout the build.
Delivery Information
Delivery arrives on a pallet to the kerbside or driveway; moving it into the garden is down to the customer, so arrange help given the weight. Lead times are shown at checkout. Measure any side access beforehand.
Optional Upgrades
A matching base, shelving and an upgraded felt or shingle roof are all available at the point of purchase.
