Please note: all imperial measurements are approximate and Forest garden buildings are made from metric measurements. Footprint does not include the roof overhang.

Description

The spacious 8 x 6 Forest Pressure Treated Overlap Apex Garden Shed has a great amount of space without being too imposing in your garden. A versatile size, it suits a wide range of garden shapes. Along with its stylish apex roof, 15 year anti-rot guarantee and FSC approved timber, it makes the perfect garden storage space. The side fixed windows allows plenty of natural light to enter the shed while the secure single door provides peace of mind.

The Forest 8 x 6 Forest Pressure Treated Overlap Apex Garden Shed has a “modular” design. Modular sheds have many advantages. It means that the wall panels of the shed are manufactured in smaller parts, making handling and assembly easier as well as increasing the overall strength of the building. All Forest modular design sheds come as standard with a 14mm boarded floor for additional strength and a stronger roof support design with metal bracing.

Manufactured from square-cut overlap timber, water runs off the building without any problems. For safety, the door is built with hidden and secure door hinges, supported by a 'Z' frame structure and complete with a plate hasp and staple latch. The roof is layered with a weatherproof 'black sand' sheet which is both durable and looks good. The windows are glazed in virtually unbreakable P.E.T. and are fitted with security screws.

This shed is pressure treated. Pressure treatment will save you time and money. This treatment has been applied on all the timber components, giving the shed the best protection and enhanced longevity and it means you do not have to treat the shed. The treatment process is pressure impregnated with Osmose Naturewood preservative, an effective method used to preserve wood against fungal decay and insect attack. Osmose is a trusted name in wood preservation and supplies preservative products to a worldwide market. You can apply a decorative colour or stain of your choice if you wish to change the appearance of your garden shed. We recommend a water based treatment, such as Protek, with a reminder that you must follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the treatment being used.

The shed is supplied flat packed for ease of handling and assembly. All fittings and felt are included in the price with clear easy to follow instructions. All Forest Garden sheds can be self-assembled with step by step guides explaining what to do. However, an assembly option is available if you prefer. The shed comes with a 15 year anti-rot guarantee provided the shed is not in direct contact with the ground.
