Forest Beckwood 5ft x 3ft Shiplap Pressure Treated Apex Wooden Shed

The SPA532WMHDBUN is the 5ft x 3ft Forest Beckwood Apex Wooden Shed (1.64m x 1m). It is built in the UK from FSC® certified timber and features a traditional apex roof with green mineral felt covering. It suits smaller gardens perfectly and stores tools, fishing tackle and garden equipment without taking up much space.

The walls are built from 12mm shiplap tongue and groove cladding on a 28mm x 56mm frame that is 30% thicker than standard wooden sheds. Pressure treatment forces preservative deep into every timber cell meaning no annual retreatment is ever needed. The 25-year anti-rot guarantee is the longest on the market. The floor is 12mm tongue and groove boards on pressure-treated bearers.

The single door has double-Z framing to hold its shape and is fitted with hidden security hinges that cannot be tampered with from outside. A heavy-duty pad bolt is included though a padlock is not. Two 3mm shatterproof acrylic windows let in natural light. The shed is windowless on the rear and sides for added privacy.

The modular panel design makes assembly straightforward with clear instructions and fixings included. White Glove Delivery brings it straight into your garden with all packaging removed. For a small shed this is serious build quality.

Walls are 12mm shiplap tongue and groove boards fixed to a 28mm x 56mm pressure-treated frame 30% thicker than most wooden sheds. The interlocking profile creates a tight weatherproof seal and the scalloped shiplap surface channels rainwater away. The apex roof is built from 8mm OSB sheet and covered with green mineral felt. The floor is 12mm tongue and groove boards supported on pressure-treated bearers. The single door uses double-Z framing to resist warping and is hung on hidden security hinges. All timber is pressure treated using a vacuum and hydraulic pressure process that forces preservative deep into the wood cells.

All timber is FSC® certified UK-grown wood. Walls are 12mm shiplap tongue and groove boards on a 28mm x 56mm pressure-treated softwood frame. The roof is 8mm OSB covered with green mineral felt. The floor is 12mm tongue and groove boards on pressure-treated softwood bearers. Windows are 3mm acrylic glazing.

A floor is included 12mm tongue and groove boards on pressure-treated bearers. The shed still needs to sit on a firm level base such as a concrete slab or paving slabs. You must prepare the ground yourself. An optional pressure-treated wooden base kit is available to buy separately as a faster alternative to laying concrete.

This shed arrives as modular panels which are smaller and easier to handle than full wall sections. Clear instructions and a full set of fixings are included. No assembly time is stated by the manufacturer but the modular design is described as quicker and simpler to build than standard sheds. A professional installation service is available at extra cost. Two people are recommended for handling the panels safely.

The base footprint is 1475mm wide by 941mm deep. That gives you enough room for a collection of hand tools, long-handled garden tools stood against the wall, garden chemicals and small equipment like a strimmer. A compact push lawnmower may fit depending on its size. There is limited floor space for larger items. Wall hooks or a small shelf unit can make good use of the vertical space on the side walls. A 3ft wall-mounted shelf is available as an accessory.
