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

The Forest 4Life 6' x 4' Reverse Apex Wooden Shed (1.88m x 1.34m) is a pressure treated overlap shed built for smaller gardens that need serious storage. SKU 4LR641WMHDBUN is made in the UK from FSC® certified timber and comes with a 25-year anti-rot guarantee the longest on the market. The reverse apex roof keeps the ridge running front to back giving useful headroom inside.

Walls are built from 7mm straight-edge overlap cladding on 28mm x 28mm framing 30% more framing than standard wooden sheds. The pressure treatment forces preservative deep into the timber grain so the wood never needs retreating. That saves an estimated £200 in time and treatment costs compared to dip treated sheds.

A single door with double-Z bracing and hidden security hinges fastens with a hasp and staple plate. One shatterproof PET-glazed window lets in natural light. The 12mm solid timber floor is far stronger than the OSB floors found in standard sheds and sits on pressure-treated bearers to protect against ground moisture.

Fully modular panels make assembly straightforward and let you position the door and window to suit your garden layout. Floor and bearers are included as standard along with a full set of fixings and clear instructions.
