Overview

Big gardens deserve big storage, and the 10′ x 8′ Forest Beckwood 25yr Guarantee Shiplap Pressure Treated Double Door Apex Wooden Shed (3.01m x 2.61m) delivers exactly that. Forest’s Beckwood range is built around durable shiplap pressure treated cladding and a traditional apex roof, resulting in a shed that is as tough as it is spacious. From seasonal equipment to a full set of power tools, there is ample room to keep everything organised and out of the house.

Key Features

• Generous 10′ x 8′ floor area for large scale storage
• Shiplap pressure treated boards for lasting weatherproofing
• 25 year manufacturer guarantee from the Forest Beckwood range
• Wide double doors for easy access with bulky items
• Classic apex roofline for maximum headroom

For an even bigger building, the 10′ x 10′ Forest Beckwood Windowless Double Door Apex Shed offers more floor space in a secure, windowless design.

Roof Types

An apex roof sits on top of this shed, formed from two sloping panels meeting along a central ridge. This traditional shape handles rainfall well and creates extra headroom inside, making it easier to install tall shelving or move around freely.

Dimensions

• Overall size: 10′ x 8′ (3.01m x 2.61m)
• Imperial size: 10 feet by 8 feet
• Metric size: 3.01 metres by 2.61 metres
• Roof style: apex

Construction

The Beckwood build combines a sturdy timber frame with overlapping shiplap cladding, creating a weather resistant shell that copes well with wind and rain. The apex roof adds strength and extra interior height, while the floor carries heavier items such as workbenches and mowers with ease.

Treatment & Guarantee

Pressure treatment is applied to the shiplap cladding at the factory, and the build is backed by Forest’s 25 year guarantee against rot. This gives genuine confidence that the timber will continue to perform well through many years of British rain, frost and sunshine with only routine upkeep.

Doors & Windows

The double doors open wide, giving plenty of room to manoeuvre a mower, bicycles or long garden tools in and out without catching on the frame. Windows allow daylight to reach into the shed, making it a more pleasant space to spend time in when sorting or repairing equipment.

Assembly Information

Assembly is a DIY flat pack job, with numbered panels, fixings and a full instruction guide included. Given the size of this building, a full weekend with two people is the realistic expectation. A solid, level base needs to be ready beforehand, together with standard tools such as a drill and hammer.

Delivery Information

Delivery is to a UK kerbside or driveway address using a large vehicle, so please check access is clear in advance. Because of the weight involved in a shed of this size, arranging extra hands to help move the panels into the garden is a sensible precaution.

Optional Upgrades

Many customers add guttering to manage water running off the apex roof, along with internal shelving or a workbench to make the most of the large floor area. A fresh coat of timber treatment every couple of years will also help maintain the shed’s appearance.
