Forest Garden 8x6 Overlap Pressure Treated Pent Wooden Shed (2.51m x 2.04m)

The Forest Garden 4LP862WMHDBUN is an 8x6 pent wooden shed measuring 2.51m x 2.04m. It sits in the 4Life™ range and has a clean pent roof style with straight-cut 7mm overlap timber cladding. It's built in the UK from FSC® certified British timber and comes in a natural timber finish.

Pressure treated for 25-year anti-rot protection the longest guarantee on the market. The preservative is forced deep into the timber under hydraulic pressure so it becomes part of the wood. You never need to re-treat it. That saves an estimated £200 in treatment costs over its lifetime compared to dip-treated sheds.

It has a single door with double-Z framing for strength and hidden security hinges that can't be tampered with from outside. A hasp and staple plate is fitted ready for a padlock. Two shatterproof PET-glazed windows let in light without yellowing or fading. The 12mm solid timber floor sits on pressure-treated bearers far stronger than OSB floors found in standard sheds.

Fully modular design with 30% more framing than standard sheds makes this a strong and practical buy. Clear instructions and fixings are included. White Glove delivery brings it straight into your garden.
