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

The Forest 4Life 6x4 Windowless Apex Shed (4LA46NWMNDHDBUN) measures 1.88m x 1.34m and is built in the UK from FSC® certified timber. It has a classic apex roof and a windowless design that keeps contents out of sight. This is Forest's best overlap shed range and the specs back that up.

The walls use 7mm straight-cut overlap cladding for effective rainwater runoff. The framing is 28mm x 28mm 30% more framing than standard wooden sheds. The floor is 12mm solid pressure-treated timber with bearers far stronger than the OSB floors found in cheaper sheds. The 8mm OSB roof is covered in green mineral felt. Pressure treatment forces preservative deep into the timber grain the wood never needs retreating.

The single door has double-Z framing to stop it dropping or losing shape. Hidden security hinges cannot be tampered with from outside. A hasp and staple plate is fitted bring your own padlock. The windowless design stops anyone seeing what is stored inside. The door can be hung left or right and fitted in different positions.

The 25-year anti-rot guarantee is the longest on the market. Other sheds offer 10 years. No annual treatment means no ongoing cost. A solid timber floor is included as standard. White Glove delivery drops it straight into your garden.

The frame uses 28mm x 28mm timber sections 30% more than standard sheds giving a rigid structure that resists racking in wind. Walls are clad in 7mm straight-cut overlap boards that shed rain and allow natural timber movement. The 8mm OSB roof deck sits on the apex frame and is covered in green mineral felt. The 12mm solid timber floor is supported by pressure-treated bearers that keep it off the ground. The door uses double-Z bracing and hidden hinges. All timber is pressure treated under vacuum and hydraulic pressure for deep preservative penetration.

FSC® certified UK timber throughout. Walls are 7mm straight-cut overlap cladding. Framing is 28mm x 28mm pressure-treated timber. The floor is 12mm solid pressure-treated timber on pressure-treated bearers. The roof deck is 8mm OSB covered in green mineral felt with smooth-planed barge boards and finials.

A solid level base such as concrete or paving is needed before installation. The shed floor and pressure-treated bearers are included as standard. If you do not have a suitable base a UC4 pressure-treated wooden base kit is available to buy separately. You must prepare the ground yourself before delivery.

This shed arrives as fully modular flat-packed panels with interchangeable sections. Two people are recommended for assembly. The modular design makes it quicker and simpler to build than most wooden sheds. A full set of fixings and clear printed instructions are included. Installation is also available as an add-on service if you prefer not to self-build.

The internal width is approximately 1.18m and the depth around 1.83m. That is enough space for a lawnmower and a set of long-handled garden tools stood upright. A small workbench or shelving unit along one wall is realistic. A full-size bike would be tight alongside anything else. Wall hooks or a shelf such as the Forest Wall Mounted Shelf 4ft work well here. This is a compact storage shed not suited to large items like a wheelbarrow and bikes together.
