Indestructible™ Pressure Treated Sheds represent the supreme selection of overlap sheds Forest has ever crafted. Coming in a variety of designs and dimensions, all are meticulously devised and constructed in the UK. This particular one is the 8×6 Window-Free Reverse Apex Shed (2.42m x 1.99m), ensuring safeguarded outdoor storage, ideal for various garden sizes.

Wood Imbued with Pressure and Shielded by a 4Life™ Assurance
The timber in this shed is pressure imbued to thwart decay and is accompanied by an unparalleled 25-year anti-decay guarantee, the lengthiest guarantee in the industry. Say goodbye to the hassle of reapplying treatments as this wood requires no re-treatment, saving you time and money. With a 4Life™ Shed, you only need one shed in a lifetime!

Ingeniously Structured for Effortless Assembly
Featuring an improved fully interchangeable design, this garden shed is delivered in smaller, interchangeable sections, making assembly a breeze compared to most other wooden sheds. This design also provides a leading-edge in selecting door positions, enabling the shed to be tailored to specific needs. With 30% more framing than standard wooden sheds, this 8×6 shed isn’t just easy to assemble and adaptable, but also exceptionally robust.

Wall, Floor, and Ceiling Details
The walls are fabricated from 7mm overlap cladding, ensuring effective rainwater drainage and allowing the timber to naturally move with the seasons. In contrast to most other overlap sheds, the boards have clean-cut edges, giving them a more refined appearance.
The floor, constructed from 14mm solid timber, is 40% thicker than conventional shed floors and includes pressure-treated bearers for added defense against ground moisture.
The ceiling is crafted from 8mm solid sheet, reinforced with a metal truss bracket, and coated with premium mineral-felt for comprehensive weather endurance. The reverse apex design, sleek-planed barge boards, and charming finials provide a stylish finish to the shed’s appearance.

A Shed with Enhanced Security Features
The door is versatile in terms of placement and opening orientation, with double-Z framing for added stability and to prevent warping. Concealed security hinges and a hasp & staple plate ensure the safety of valuable tools (padlock not included). The absence of windows enhances security by discouraging unwanted attention. The elevated roofline offers ample headroom and expands garden storage options.

Exclusive White Glove Delivery Service
Forest’s White Glove Service delivers this shed free of charge to most UK locations, directly into the customer’s garden with all packaging removed. The package includes clear instructions and a comprehensive set of fixings for straightforward assembly.

Additional Enhancements
Optional enhancements encompass a professional installation service and a pressure-treated shed base. Please note that Forest preserves the right to modify the specifications of their products at any time.

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.
