Forest Garden 4Life 6ft x 4ft Overlap Pressure Treated Windowless Apex Wooden Shed

The Forest Garden 4Life (4LA46NWMHDBUN) is a 6ft x 4ft apex wooden shed measuring 1.88m x 1.34m. It has an apex roof and a windowless design. The ridge height is 2122mm and eaves height is 1864mm giving generous headroom for a compact shed.

Built from 7mm overlap cladding on 28mm x 28mm framing that is 30% more framing than standard wooden sheds. The timber is pressure treated using a five-stage vacuum and pressure process that forces preservative deep into the wood. No re-treatment is ever needed. The 12mm solid timber floor sits on pressure-treated bearers. The 8mm OSB roof is covered in green mineral felt.

The single door is 590mm wide and 1640mm tall with double-Z framing to prevent dropping and hidden security hinges that cannot be tampered with from outside. It fastens with a hasp and staple plate ready for a padlock. Windowless design means no visibility into the shed. This size suits a lawnmower, garden tools and small storage boxes.

The 25-year anti-rot guarantee is the longest on the market. No annual treatment costs. FSC certified UK timber. Fully modular panels make assembly straightforward.

No floor base is included with the shed. It must sit on a firm level surface such as a concrete slab or paving slabs. Laying it directly onto grass is not suitable. A 6x4 plastic base kit or a 6x4 wooden base kit made from UC4 pressure-treated timber are available as optional extras. You must prepare the base yourself before any installation visit.

The shed arrives flat packed as fully modular panels. All fixings and clear instructions are included. Two people are recommended for safe panel handling. The modular design means panels are interchangeable and easier to handle than standard shed kits. A professional installation service is available as an optional extra. If self-building, most people complete the assembly in a few hours.

The internal floor area is approximately 1.18m wide by 1.83m deep. A standard push lawnmower fits easily. There is room for a set of long-handled garden tools, several storage boxes and a small shelving unit or wall-mounted shelf along one side. A wheelbarrow can fit but will take up most of the floor space. This is a storage shed rather than a workspace there is not enough room to work comfortably inside alongside stored items.
