Roof Types
The reverse apex roof design features an eye-catching appearance with smooth-planed barge boards and diamond-shaped finials. Built from tough 8mm OSB and reinforced by a metal truss bracket, the roof is covered with green mineral felt for complete weatherproof protection.
Dimensions
This shed measures 8 feet by 6 feet (2.42m x 1.99m), providing spacious storage capacity suitable for most garden sizes. The high roofline allows plenty of headroom and makes it possible to store taller items.
Construction
The walls are constructed from 7mm overlap cladding with straight-cut boards for a superior finish. The cladding allows natural timber movement across seasons whilst ensuring excellent rainwater runoff. The 12mm solid wooden floor is significantly stronger than standard OSB flooring and is supported by pressure-treated bearers for additional protection against rot-causing ground moisture.
Featuring a fully modular design, this Forest shed is delivered in smaller, interchangeable panel sections, making assembly considerably easier than traditional wooden sheds. The modular construction also provides market-leading flexibility, allowing you to customise door placements to suit your requirements.
Treatment & Guarantee
All timber is pressure treated and supplied with a 25-year anti-rot guarantee – the longest guarantee available. This exceptional protection means the wood never needs retreating, sparing you the expense and inconvenience of costly maintenance whilst providing an unbeatably durable shed.
Doors & Windows
Access is via a single door that can be installed in different positions and hung for either left or right-hand opening – you choose. The door is ledged and braced for extra strength to prevent dropping or movement. It’s fitted with hidden security hinges plus a padlock-ready hasp & staple plate for peace of mind (padlock not included).
The windowless design provides additional security by keeping your valuable tools and equipment out of sight from unwanted attention.
Delivery Information
Free delivery is available to most UK postcodes via Forest’s White Glove Delivery Service. Your new shed will be delivered and positioned wherever you like in the garden, with all packaging removed. The shed comes with a full set of fixings and clear assembly instructions.
Optional Upgrades
A professional installation service is available as a competitively-priced optional upgrade if you’d prefer not to assemble the shed yourself. You can also purchase either a pressure-treated wooden shed base kit or an eco-friendly plastic shed base kit as optional extras to provide a solid, level foundation.
