Forest Beckwood Summerhouses present an exclusive selection of meticulously crafted summerhouses, featuring a fully-customizable design, pressure-treated timber, and an extraordinary 25-year warranty. The 12′ x 8′ Double Door Apex Summer House (3.6m x 2.61m) is a standout model within this premium range, embodying exceptional qualities that ensure durability and elegance.

Unveiling a Superior, Modular Summer House
Crafted in the UK, this 12×8 summer house showcases high-grade 12mm shiplap cladding, offering unparalleled strength, style, and weather resilience. With a 28mm frame and a fully modular structure, this summerhouse boasts smaller panels and an abundance of timber, facilitating effortless assembly and a remarkably robust construction. The innovative fully modular design also allows for a leading selection of door and window configurations, enabling personalized customization to suit specific needs.

T & G Flooring and Weatherproof Roofing
The floor, fashioned from premium 12mm tongue and groove material, can effortlessly accommodate heavy furniture and regular foot traffic. Supported by pressure-treated bearers that promote air circulation, the floor remains safeguarded from moisture and decay. The 8mm solid sheet apex roof includes a green mineral felt covering, ensuring complete protection against varying weather conditions. The diamond-shaped finials add a finishing touch to the summerhouse’s charming appearance.

Entrances and Windows
The glazed double doors provide convenient access to the interior, equipped with robust handles, a tower bolt, and turn buttons for added security. Alongside the 6 large, fixed windows, these doors flood the interior space with natural light. Acrylic glazing, known for its lightweight and shatterproof properties, offers a safer alternative to traditional glass.

Low-Maintenance with an Unrivaled Warranty
The timber used in constructing this summer house is FSC® certified, sourced from sustainable forests. Treated under pressure and backed by a leading 25-year anti-rot guarantee, the timber eliminates the need for additional rot treatments, ensuring a maintenance-free experience and cost savings.

FAQs

The size of the shed depends on what you plan to store or use it for. Measure the items you plan to store and consider any additional space for moving around or future storage needs. Common sizes range from small (6×8 feet) for basic storage to large (12×24 feet) for workshops or extensive storage.
Sheds are typically made from wood, metal, or plastic. Wood is aesthetically pleasing and customizable but requires more maintenance. Metal sheds are durable and secure but can be prone to rust. Plastic sheds are low-maintenance and easy to assemble but may not be as sturdy as wood or metal.

Permit requirements vary by location. Check with your local building department or zoning office. Typically, small sheds (under 120 square feet) may not require a permit, but larger ones or those with electrical installations often do.

A solid foundation is crucial for stability and longevity. Options include concrete slabs, gravel bases, or wooden platforms. Choose a foundation based on your shed’s size, material, and the ground conditions of your site.
Look for sheds with features like weather-resistant materials, proper sealing, and robust construction. Ensure the shed has a good roof overhang, proper drainage, and secure locking mechanisms to protect against theft and weather damage.
Assembly time depends on the size and complexity of the shed. Small, simple sheds can be assembled in a few hours, while larger or more complex sheds may take a full day or more. Professional installation is also an option for those who prefer not to DIY.
Maintenance depends on the material. Wooden sheds need periodic painting or staining and checking for rot or pests. Metal sheds may need rust prevention treatments. Plastic sheds require minimal maintenance, typically just cleaning as needed.
Moving a shed is possible but can be challenging, especially for larger structures. It’s easier to move a smaller shed if it has a solid base. Consider the logistics and potential costs of moving before installation. If moving is likely, a portable shed might be a better option.
Many sheds come with detailed assembly instructions, making them suitable for DIY installation, especially smaller models. However, larger or more complex sheds may require professional installation to ensure they are properly and safely assembled. Assess your skill level, available tools, and the complexity of the shed before deciding.
