Construction

The 8×6 overlap pressure treated pent shed is built to exacting standards. The walls use 7mm overlap cladding with straight-cut boards for a superior finish. This construction method allows natural timber movement whilst ensuring excellent rainwater runoff. The solid 12mm wooden floor is supported by pressure-treated bearers, providing robust protection against rot-causing ground moisture. With 30% additional framing compared to standard sheds, structural integrity is maximised.

Treatment & Guarantee

All timber is pressure treated to resist rot and decay. The 25-year anti-rot guarantee is the longest available on the market, providing complete peace of mind. This means the wood will never need retreating, eliminating costly and time-consuming maintenance. Once installed, your shed requires no ongoing treatment.

Doors & Windows

This pent shed comes with a single door that can be positioned and hung to your preference (left or right-hand opening). The door is ledged and braced for extra strength and fitted with hidden security hinges plus a padlock-ready hasp and staple plate. Two PET-glazed shatterproof windows provide natural light and security. Made from recycled materials, these windows are completely shatterproof, won’t discolour or fade, and can be installed in various positions. The fully modular design allows complete flexibility in door and window placement.

Assembly Information

The fully modular design delivers the shed in smaller sections of interchangeable panels, making assembly significantly easier than traditional wooden sheds. A full set of fixings and clear instructions are included. Professional installation is available as an optional upgrade if you prefer not to assemble the shed yourself.

Delivery Information

Free White Glove Delivery Service is available to most UK postcodes. Forest will deliver your new shed and remove all packaging, dropping it wherever you like in the garden. All fixings and instructions are included to support straightforward assembly.

Optional Upgrades

Professional installation service is available as a competitively-priced optional upgrade. A pressure-treated wooden shed base is also available separately – a faster and more cost-effective DIY solution than laying concrete or slabs. Alternatively, a plastic shed base kit made from 100% recycled plastic is available for those seeking a lighter-weight option. Consider pairing your new shed with garden storage solutions for maximum organisation.
