Description

4Life™ Pressure Treated Sheds are the best range of overlap sheds Forest has ever made. Available in a variety of styles and sizes, they are all expertly designed and built in the UK. This one is the 8x6 Double Door Pent Shed (2.52m x 2.05m), so provides stylish outdoor storage in most sizes of garden.

Pressure-Treated Wood with a 4Life™ Guarantee

This wooden shed is pressure treated to prevent rot and backed by an unbeatable 25-year anti-rot guarantee, which is the longest guarantee on the market. The wood will never need retreating, saving time and money. You'll only ever need one shed with a 4Life™ Shed!

Fully Modular Design

Now with an improved fully modular design, this garden shed is delivered in smaller sections of interchangeable panels, making it far easier to assemble than most wooden sheds. This modular design also allows a market-leading choice of door and window placements, so the shed can be customised to match precise requirements. And with 30% more framing than standard wooden sheds, this 8x6 shed isn't just easy to assemble and versatile, it's incredibly strong too.

Walls, Floor and Roof

The walls are built from 7mm overlap cladding, which ensures effective rainwater runoff and allows the timber to move naturally over the changing seasons. Unlike most other overlap sheds, the boards are straight cut, giving them a far more stylish finish.

Constructed from 14mm solid wood, the floor is 40% thicker than regular shed flooring and comes with pressure-treated bearers to provide extra protection from ground moisture.

The roof is made from 8mm solid sheet and fitted with a premium mineral-felt cover for complete weatherproof protection. Its modern pent design adds the finishing touch to an exceptionally stylish appearance.

A Security-Enhanced Shed

The double doors can be installed in different positions and come with double-Z framing for added strength/ to prevent them losing shape. Hidden security hinges and a hasp & staple plate keep valuable tools secure (padlock not included).

The 2 PET-glazed windows allow plenty of natural light into the shed. They are made from recyclable materials, completely shatterproof, and will neither fade nor discolour in the sun.

White Glove Delivery Service

Forest's White Glove Service will deliver this shed for free to most UK addresses, straight into the customer's garden, with all of the packaging removed. Clear instructions and a full set of fixings are included for a straightforward assembly.

Optional Upgrades

Optional upgrades include a professional installation service and pressure-treated shed base.

Shed Base Options

Wooden Shed Base

Wooden Shed Base Kit

As an alternative to laying slabs or concrete, this shed base is a faster, more cost effective DIY solution.

The wooden shed base consists of a framework that is made from UC4 incised timber which has been pressure treated. The pressure treatment ensures that the framework is robust and is guaranteed to resist rot for an impressive 15 years.

Size of base: 7.5cm (h) x 236cm (w) x 182.6cm (d)

 

 

Plastic Shed Base

Plastic Shed Base Kit

Quick and simple to install, the 8x6 plastic shed base kit is ideal for avoiding the hassle of laying slabs or concrete when preparing a base for a new shed. Its interlocking design makes it easy to put together and, though lightweight, it provides a very strong and durable base for the shed. Made from 100% recycled plastic, this shed base is eco-friendly. Also, it can be reused if the shed is repositioned. The base allows for ventilation and drainage under the shed, helping to keep the shed floor dry.

To install the base, simply interlock the square grids together and lay onto a firm, level area of ground. We recommend using 15kg of 10mm pea gravel per square (gravel not included). Each square is 500 x 500 x 40mm. This pack contains 20 squares and heavy-duty, commercially-graded weed membrane.

Please be advised that we do not assemble plastic shed bases as part of our installation service. A helpful video of how to install this plastic shed base can be found here. You must prepare the base yourself, in accordance with the supplied instructions, in advance of the installers' visit. Laying the base straight onto grass will not be suitable and the installers will not be able to assemble your garden building.

Why Choose a Forest Overlap 4Life Shed™?

Forest Garden are proud to introduce their latest innovation: The 4Life Shed™.  You can configure a shed that suits you and your garden. All boast a solid timber floor, 30% more framing and are easier to build. You'll only ever need one shed with a 4Life Shed™.

 

 

Why you need a Forest Overlap Pressure Treated 4Life Shed™?

 

If you're looking to purchase a new shed and can afford a slightly higher initial spend, buying a pressure treated shed will save you a lot of time and money in the long term. 4Life Sheds are completely maintenance free - there is no need to ever apply treatment. Most other sheds require treatment once built - then yearly treatment thereafter.

 

Forest branded pressure treated sheds have a number of features to ensure maximum durability and strength including solid boarded wooden floors, security door hinges, extra framing and so much more. 

 

1. High Quality Roof

The roof is made from 8mm OSB and is covered in a durable weatherproof felt. Reflecting the high quality of this shed, the roof is finished with smooth planed barge boards and a decorative finial.

2. Increased Security Windows

Our windows are glazed with shatterproof PET glazing, made from recycled materials, which will not yellow or become brittle over time. PET is more robust than the styrene used in standard sheds.
