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

The Forest Garden 4Life 6x4 Pent Shed (4LP641WMHDBUN) is a compact wooden overlap shed measuring 1.98m x 1.4m. It has a modern pent roof style and is UK-made from FSC® certified British timber. It suits smaller gardens where tidy outdoor storage matters.

The walls are built from 7mm overlap cladding with straight-cut boards for a cleaner finish. Pressure treatment forces preservative deep into the timber fibres this is not a surface coating. That means the wood never needs retreating. Forest back this with a 25-year anti-rot guarantee, the longest on the market. Comparable dip-treated sheds require annual treatment costing an estimated £200 over time.

The single door has double-Z framing to keep its shape and hidden security hinges that cannot be tampered with from outside. A hasp and staple is fitted ready for a padlock. One shatterproof PET-glazed window lets in natural light. The 12mm solid timber floor with pressure-treated bearers is far stronger than standard OSB shed floors. A lawnmower and basic garden tools will fit comfortably.

Fully modular panel construction makes assembly faster than most wooden sheds. Clear instructions and all fixings are included. With a solid floor as standard and 30% more framing than typical overlap sheds this is a well-built storage solution.

Framing is 28mm x 28mm timber approximately 30% more than standard overlap sheds. Walls use 7mm overlap straight-cut cladding boards. The roof is 8mm OSB sheet covered in green mineral felt with planed barge boards and a decorative finial. The 12mm solid timber floor sits on pressure-treated bearers to lift it off the ground. The single door uses double-Z bracing and hidden hinges. All timber is pressure treated preservative is forced into the cells under hydraulic pressure making it a permanent part of the wood.

All timber is FSC® certified UK-grown wood pressure treated at source. Cladding is 7mm overlap softwood. Framing is 28mm x 28mm softwood section. The roof is 8mm OSB covered in green mineral felt. The floor is 12mm solid pressure-treated timber on pressure-treated bearers. The window uses shatterproof PET glazing made from recyclable materials.

A floor with pressure-treated bearers is included as standard. The shed still needs to stand on a solid level surface such as a concrete slab or paving. If you do not have one Forest offer an optional 6x4 plastic or wooden shed base kit. The plastic base uses interlocking 500x500mm grids on firm level ground. You must prepare the base yourself before any installation visit.

This shed arrives as fully modular flat-packed panels in smaller sections that are easier to handle than standard shed kits. Two people are recommended. Clear step-by-step instructions and a full set of fixings are included. Professional installation is available as an optional extra and is typically arranged within 2 to 3 weeks of delivery. Forest's White Glove Delivery brings the shed into your garden with all packaging removed.

The base footprint is 1.83m wide by 1.18m deep. That is enough for a standard push lawnmower and a set of garden hand tools along one wall. A wheelbarrow will fit but leaves little room to move around. Two bikes would be very tight. The 12mm solid timber floor handles heavier items well. Wall space on three sides suits hooks for long-handled tools or a Forest Wall Mounted Shelf for smaller items.
