Roof Types

The reverse apex roof features tough 8mm OSB construction reinforced with a metal truss bracket. It’s covered with green mineral felt for complete weatherproof protection and decorated with smooth-planed barge boards and diamond-shaped finials for an attractive appearance.

Dimensions

This shed measures 8 feet by 6 feet (2.42m x 1.99m), providing ample space for tools, equipment and garden storage. The high roofline offers generous headroom, allowing you to store taller items comfortably.

Construction

The walls are constructed from 7mm straight-cut overlap cladding, which allows natural timber movement and ensures excellent rainwater runoff. The 12mm solid wooden floor is significantly stronger than standard OSB flooring and is supported by pressure-treated bearers for rot protection.

With 30% more framing than other wooden sheds, this model combines ease of assembly with superior structural strength. The fully modular design delivers interchangeable panels that make construction straightforward.

Treatment & Guarantee

All wood is pressure treated to protect against rot-causing moisture. The extraordinary 25-year anti-rot guarantee is the longest available on the market, meaning you’ll never need to retreat the wood. This provides complete maintenance freedom and exceptional durability – you’ll only need one shed with a 4Life guarantee.

Doors & Windows

Access is via wide double doors that are ledged and braced for extra strength and to prevent dropping or movement. Hidden security hinges plus a padlock-ready hasp and staple plate keep your valuables secure (padlock not included).

Two PET-glazed windows flood the interior with natural light, ideal for working on DIY projects or locating stored items. These shatterproof windows are made from recycled materials, won’t discolour or fade, and offer far greater security than conventional glass. The fully modular design allows you to position windows flexibly according to your needs.

Assembly Information

The fully modular design makes this shed much easier to assemble than traditional wooden sheds. It arrives in smaller sections of interchangeable panels with a full set of fixings and clear instructions. Professional installation is available as an optional upgrade if you prefer not to assemble it yourself.

Delivery Information

Free delivery is available to most UK postcodes using Forest’s White Glove Delivery Service. Your new shed will be dropped off wherever you like in your garden, with all packaging removed for you.

Optional Upgrades

A competitively-priced professional installation service is available if you’d prefer the shed to be assembled for you. A pressure-treated shed base is also available as an optional extra, or you can choose from wooden or plastic base kits to prepare a suitable foundation.
