Description

With its clever modular design and top-quality build, the Forest 6′ x 4′ Shiplap Dip Treated Windowless Apex Wooden Shed (1.89m x 1.34m) offers strong, long-lasting and incredibly versatile garden storage for tools and a lawnmower.

This garden shed is part of a comprehensive range of sheds, expertly designed and built by one of the UK’s leading shed manufacturers, Forest Garden. Its intelligent modular design means it is delivered in smaller sections, making it far easier to assemble than other wooden sheds. This modular design also means more extensive 28mm shed framing, resulting in an exceptionally robust structure and greater resistance to warping.

The shed walls are constructed from premium kiln-dried, smooth-planed 12mm shiplap cladding, ensuring fantastic weatherproof protection and an incredibly attractive appearance. Where the panels join together, cover strips are used to ensure the structure remains weathertight.

A thick 14mm pressure-treated timber boarded floor with pressure-treated bearers not only provides a long-lasting, effective barrier against ground moisture, it allows for the storage of heavier tools and machinery too. A timber floor is far superior to standard OSB flooring as it is more durable, more attractive and won’t sag.

The apex roof contributes towards the shed’s smart, traditional appearance and ensures effective rainwater runoff. Made from 8mm OSB, the roof is supplied with green mineral felt which is stronger and more attractive than standard black sand felt.

Access to this 6×4 shed is gained via a single door, which can be hung with a left or right-hand opening, to suit the garden’s orientation. It also features double-Z framing to prevent the door from dropping. Tamper-proof hidden hinges and a hasp and staple plate, designed for a padlock (padlock not included), help keep stored items safe. The windowless design adds another level of security.

All of the timber is FSC®-certified, so only sourced from sustainable, well-managed forests. Fixtures, fittings and clear instructions are included for a simple assembly, although a professional installation service is available to buy as an optional upgrade. A pressure-treated shed base or convenient plastic shed base can be purchased as an optional extra too.

This wooden shed is supplied dip-treated and should be coated in a quality wood preservative annually, in order to maintain its handsome appearance and validate the excellent 10-year anti-rot guarantee.

Shed Base Options

Wooden Shed Base Kit

As an alternative to laying slabs or concrete, this shed base is a faster, more cost effective DIY solution.

The wooden shed base consists of a framework that is made from UC4 incised timber which has been pressure treated. The pressure treatment ensures that the framework is robust and is guaranteed to resist rot for an impressive 15 years.

Size of base: 7.5cm (h) x 118cm (w) x 182.6cm (d)

Plastic Shed Base Kit

Quick and simple to install, the 6×4 plastic shed base kit is ideal for avoiding the hassle of laying slabs or concrete when preparing a base for a new shed. Its interlocking design makes it easy to put together and, though lightweight, it provides a very strong and durable base for the shed. Made from 100% recycled plastic, this shed base is eco-friendly. Also, it can be reused if the shed is repositioned. The base allows for ventilation and drainage under the shed, helping to keep the shed floor dry.

To install the base, simply interlock the square grids together and lay onto a firm, level area of ground. We recommend using 15kg of 10mm pea gravel per square (gravel not included). Each square is 500 x 500 x 50mm. This pack contains 12 squares and heavy-duty, commercially-graded weed membrane.
