Construction

Expert construction combines 12mm shiplap tongue and groove cladding with a 28mm x 56mm frame, creating walls that are strong, durable and weatherproof. The scalloped profile of the shiplap also provides excellent rainwater runoff.

The floor is constructed from premium 12mm tongue and groove timber, supported by pressure-treated bearers to provide extra protection from ground moisture. This robust construction easily handles regular footfall.

When comparing garden sheds, the Beckwood’s modular design stands out. Delivered in interchangeable panels, it’s far easier to assemble than most wooden sheds whilst offering exceptional strength.

Treatment & Guarantee

This pressure treated wooden shed is backed by an unbeatable 25-year anti-rot guarantee – the longest on the market. No further anti-rot treatment will ever be required, saving you both time and money over the lifetime of your shed. The timber is sourced from sustainable, well-managed forests, keeping environmental impact to a minimum.

Doors & Windows

The security door can be installed in different positions to suit your garden’s orientation, thanks to the modular design. It features double-Z framing for added strength and includes hidden security hinges and a pad bolt to keep valuables secure (padlock not included).

Two 3mm acrylic windows allow plenty of natural light inside. These windows are tough, lightweight, completely shatterproof, and will neither fade nor discolour in the sun – ideal for UK weather conditions.
