7′ x 5′ Forest 4Life 25yr Guarantee Overlap Pressure Treated Windowless Apex Wooden Shed with Logstore (2.18m x 2.31m)

Overview

This 7′ x 5′ Forest 4Life Windowless Apex Wooden Shed with Logstore combines everyday garden storage with a built-in log store to one side, making it a practical choice for anyone who burns wood on an open fire or stove. The windowless design gives extra security and privacy for stored tools and equipment, while the attached logstore keeps firewood dry and off the ground outside the main storage area.

Key Features

• Forest 4Life range with a 25 year guarantee against rot
• Overlap pressure-treated timber cladding
• Apex roof for good internal headroom
• Integrated logstore section to one side
• Windowless design for added security

Roof Types

The shed has an apex roof, with two sloped panels rising to a central ridge. This traditional shape gives more headroom inside than a flat or pent roof of the same size and sheds rain evenly from both sides. The roof, including the section over the logstore, is covered with roofing felt for weatherproofing.

Dimensions

• Width: 7′ (2.18m)
• Depth: 5′ (2.31m)
• Roof style: Apex
• Includes: Attached logstore section

Construction

Overlap cladding boards are fitted horizontally across the frame, with each board overlapping the one below to shed rainwater down the face of the shed. This is a widely used, cost-effective cladding style that performs well across changing weather. The logstore section shares the same timber frame and cladding as the main shed, with open slatted sides to allow air to circulate around stored logs.

Treatment & Guarantee

As part of the Forest 4Life range, this shed is supplied pressure treated and comes with a 25 year guarantee against rot, reflecting the level of protection built into the timber from the outset. This long cover gives real confidence that the structure will stand up to UK weather for decades with only routine maintenance.

Doors & Windows

This is a windowless model, so there are no window openings in the main shed walls, which helps keep the contents hidden from view and reduces potential points of entry. Access is through a single door into the main storage area, built into the timber frame for a secure, close fit.

Assembly Information

The shed is supplied flat-packed for DIY assembly, with full instructions included. A firm, level base is needed before building starts, and a base fixing kit is recommended to keep the structure secure. Building the shed and logstore together is a comfortable weekend task for two people.

Delivery Information

Given the combined size of the shed and logstore, delivery is typically on a two-man kerbside basis, with the panels unloaded at the nearest safe access point. Clear a path to the build site and have help ready to move the panels into place.

Optional Upgrades

Optional extras at checkout can include upgraded roofing felt, floor bearers for ground clearance, and additional shelving inside the main shed compartment, all worth considering at the point of order.
