Forest 4LIFE Apex Shed 5x3 - Single Door - 2 Window

Forest 4LIFE Apex Shed 5x3 Single Door - 2 Windows

The Forest 4LIFE Apex Shed 5x3 with Single Door and 2 Windows is a compact yet practical garden storage solution, perfect for keeping your outdoor space organised. Designed to store gardening tools, hand tools, watering cans, plant pots and other everyday essentials, this shed is ideal for smaller gardens where space is at a premium. The two windows allow natural light into the interior, making it easier to find what you need.

As part of Forest Garden's premium 4LIFE range, this shed benefits from an improved fully modular design. The modular panels make transportation easier, simplify assembly and incorporate more timber into the construction, creating a stronger and more durable garden building.

Built for Strength and Long-Term Durability

The shed is constructed using traditional 7mm straight-cut overlap timber boards, allowing the timber to naturally expand and contract with changing weather conditions while helping rainwater run off efficiently.

Its framework is approximately 30% thicker than that found on many standard overlap sheds, providing additional strength and stability. The pressure-treated timber offers excellent protection against rot and fungal decay, allowing Forest Garden to provide an industry-leading 25 Year Anti-Rot Guarantee. Best of all, no annual preservative treatment is ever required.

Strong Floor and Weatherproof Roof

Unlike many standard garden sheds fitted with OSB flooring, this model includes a robust 12mm solid timber floor, making it suitable for storing heavier items such as lawnmowers, shelving units, power tools and gardening equipment.

The roof is constructed from durable 8mm solid sheet boarding and finished with a weatherproof green mineral felt covering, providing dependable protection against the elements throughout the year.

Secure, Bright and Practical

The reinforced single door features a strong double Z-frame, helping to reduce movement over time and improve durability. The door can also be fitted with either a left or right-hand opening, allowing you to configure the shed to best suit your available space.

The two shatterproof PET glazed windows provide natural daylight while maintaining excellent durability. Unlike traditional glazing, PET won't yellow, fade or become brittle over time.

• Two shatterproof PET glazed windows for a brighter interior
• Reversible single door with left or right-hand opening
• Hidden hinges for enhanced security
• Padlock-ready hasp and staple latch (padlock sold separately)
• Smooth-planed barge boards with a decorative diamond finial

Manufactured in the UK using FSC® certified timber and other responsibly sourced materials, the shed is supplied with all required fixings and straightforward assembly instructions.
