About Forest Garden 4Life 8ft x 6ft Windowless Apex Pressure Treated Overlap Wooden Shed

The Forest Garden 4Life 8' x 6' Windowless Apex Wooden Shed (2.42m x 1.99m) is a pressure treated overlap timber shed built for secure outdoor storage. Product 4LA68NWMHDBUN is an apex roof design with a high roofline giving generous headroom. It is windowless by design and comes with a solid timber floor as standard.

The walls use 7mm straight-edge overlap cladding with 28mm x 28mm framing 30% more framing than standard wooden sheds. The 8mm OSB roof is reinforced with a metal truss bracket and covered in green mineral felt. Pressure treatment forces preservative deep into the timber giving a 25-year anti-rot guarantee with no retreatment ever needed.

The single door has double-Z framing to prevent dropping and features hidden security hinges that cannot be tampered with from outside. A hasp and staple plate is fitted ready for a padlock. The windowless design keeps contents out of sight. The 12mm solid timber floor handles lawnmowers and heavy garden kit easily.

A free Yale Combination Padlock is included. White Glove Delivery brings the shed straight into your garden with packaging removed. Forest Garden has made over 2 million sheds in the UK using sustainable British timber.

Technical Details

The frame uses 28mm x 28mm timber sections around 30% more than standard sheds giving the structure real rigidity. Walls are clad in 7mm straight-edge overlap boards that shed rainwater and allow the timber to move with seasonal changes. The 8mm OSB roof sits on a metal truss bracket for alignment and strength and is covered in green mineral felt. The 12mm solid timber floor is supported by pressure treated bearers that lift it clear of ground moisture. The door uses double-Z bracing to hold its shape and hidden hinges for security.

Materials & Construction

Walls are 7mm straight-edge overlap softwood cladding on 28mm x 28mm pressure treated framing. The floor is 12mm solid pressure treated timber on pressure treated bearers. The roof is 8mm OSB covered in green mineral felt. All timber is pressure treated using a vacuum and hydraulic pressure process with preservative forced deep into the wood cells.

Base & Foundation

No base is included but one is required. The shed must sit on a solid level surface such as a concrete slab or paving slabs. It cannot be placed directly on grass. A pressure treated wooden base kit or a plastic base kit made from 100% recycled plastic are available as optional extras. The 12mm solid timber floor is included with the shed itself.

Assembly Guide

This shed arrives flat packed in modular panel sections for DIY assembly. Two people are needed. Clear step-by-step instructions and a full set of fixings are included. The modular panel design makes handling easier than most wooden sheds of this size. Professional installation is available as an optional extra and is typically carried out within 2 to 3 weeks of delivery.

What It Will Hold

At 1.83m wide and 2.36m deep this shed holds a good amount of kit. A standard push lawnmower fits easily with room left over. A wheelbarrow can be stored upright or on its side. Wall space on three sides allows shelves or hooks for tools and long-handled equipment. A workbench along one wall is possible. Two bikes could fit but would take up most of the floor. It is not large enough for a ride-on mower.
