Pressure-Treated Wood with a 4Life™ Guarantee
One of the standout features of this shed is its pressure-treated wood, which is backed by a remarkable 25-year anti-rot guarantee. This is the longest guarantee available on the market, ensuring that the wood will never need retreating, saving both time and money over the years. With a 4Life™ Shed, you’re investing in a structure that promises longevity, meaning you’ll only ever need one shed.
Fully Modular Design for Easy Assembly
The shed’s fully modular design enhances its appeal, as it is delivered in smaller sections of interchangeable panels. This makes it significantly easier to assemble compared to most wooden sheds. This innovative design also allows for a market-leading choice of door placements, enabling the shed to be customised to suit specific requirements. With 30% more framing than standard wooden sheds, this 8×6 model is not only easy to assemble and versatile, but it is also exceptionally strong.
Sturdy Walls, Floor, and Roof
The construction of the shed is equally impressive. The walls are built from 7mm overlap cladding, ensuring effective rainwater runoff and allowing the timber to move naturally with the changing seasons. Unlike most other overlap sheds, the boards are straight cut, offering a more stylish finish.
Constructed from 12mm timber, the floor is much stronger than regular shed flooring and is equipped with pressure-treated bearers to provide extra protection from ground moisture. The roof, made from 8mm solid sheet and reinforced by a metal truss bracket, is fitted with a premium mineral-felt cover for complete weatherproof protection. Its apex design, smooth-planed barge boards, and attractive finials add the finishing touches to a stylish appearance.
Enhanced Security Features
Security is a crucial consideration for any garden shed, and this model doesn’t disappoint. The door can be installed in different positions and hung for a left or right-hand opening. It features double-Z framing for added strength and to prevent it from losing shape. Hidden security hinges and a hasp & staple plate ensure that valuable tools remain secure (please note that a padlock is not included). The windowless design further enhances security by deterring unwanted attention, while the high roofline provides generous headroom and additional storage options.
Convenient White Glove Delivery Service
The Forest White Glove Service ensures a hassle-free delivery process. The shed is delivered free of charge to most UK addresses, directly into the customer’s garden, with all packaging removed. Clear instructions and a full set of fixings are included for straightforward assembly.
Optional Upgrades for Personalisation
To cater to individual preferences, optional upgrades are available, including a professional installation service and a pressure-treated shed base. Forest reserves the right to alter the specifications of their products at any time.
Environmentally Responsible UK Manufacturing
This shed is UK-made from FSC® certified UK timber, ensuring that it is environmentally responsible. The pressure treatment with a 25-year anti-rot guarantee ensures maintenance freedom, as the wood will never require retreating.
Efficient Shed Base Options
When it comes to preparing a base for the shed, two options are available. The Wooden Shed Base Kit offers a faster, more cost-effective DIY solution compared to laying slabs or concrete. Made from UC4 incised timber that has been pressure treated, this base is robust and guaranteed to resist rot for 15 years.
Alternatively, the Plastic Shed Base Kit is quick and simple to install, avoiding the hassle of laying slabs or concrete. Its interlocking design makes it easy to assemble, and although it is lightweight, it provides a strong and durable base for the shed. Made from 100% recycled plastic, this shed base is eco-friendly and can be reused if the shed is repositioned. It also allows for ventilation and drainage under the shed, helping to keep the shed floor dry.
Please note that plastic shed bases are not assembled as part of the installation service. Customers must prepare the base themselves in accordance with the supplied instructions before the installers’ visit. It is important to ensure that the base is not laid directly onto grass, as this would not be suitable for assembly.
