Forest 4LIFE Apex Shed 6x8 - Double Door - 2 Window

Forest 4LIFE Apex Shed 6x8 Double Door - 2 Windows

The Forest 4LIFE Apex Shed 6x8 with Double Doors and 2 Windows is a spacious, secure and practical garden storage solution that's perfect for keeping your outdoor space organised. Offering generous internal room, it's ideal for storing garden tools, lawnmowers, bicycles, outdoor furniture and DIY equipment, while also providing enough space to use as a compact workshop or hobby area.

Part of Forest Garden's premium 4LIFE range, this shed features an improved fully modular design. The modular panels make transportation and installation easier while incorporating more timber into the construction, creating a stronger and longer-lasting building that's designed to provide years of reliable use.

Strong Construction with Long-Term Protection

Built using traditional 7mm straight-cut overlap timber boards, the shed allows the timber to naturally expand and contract throughout the seasons while encouraging efficient rainwater run-off.

The framing is approximately 30% thicker than that found in many standard overlap sheds, providing exceptional strength and rigidity. Pressure-treated timber protects against rot and fungal decay, allowing Forest Garden to offer an industry-leading 25 Year Anti-Rot Guarantee. Better still, no annual preservative treatment is ever required.

Heavy-Duty Floor and Weatherproof Roof

Unlike many sheds that use OSB flooring, this model features a strong 12mm solid timber floor, making it suitable for storing heavier items including lawnmowers, shelving, workbenches, bicycles and power tools.

The roof is manufactured from durable 8mm solid sheet boarding and finished with a weatherproof green mineral felt covering to provide dependable protection from the elements throughout the year.

Bright Interior and Secure Access

The two shatterproof PET glazed windows allow natural light into the shed, creating a bright and practical working environment. PET glazing is stronger than traditional alternatives and won't yellow, fade or become brittle over time.

The wide double doors provide excellent access for larger items, while the reinforced double Z-frame construction helps prevent movement and improves long-term durability. Hidden hinges and a padlock-ready hasp and staple latch provide added security for valuable garden equipment.

• Two shatterproof PET glazed windows for natural daylight
• Wide double doors for easy access with larger equipment
• Double Z-framed doors for increased strength
• Hidden hinges for improved security
• Padlock-ready hasp and staple latch (padlock sold separately)

FAQs

Are the double doors suitable for larger equipment?

Yes. The wide double doors provide excellent access for moving bulky items such as lawnmowers, bicycles, shelving units, wheelbarrows and larger garden equipment into and out of the shed.

What are the advantages of PET glazed windows?

The two shatterproof PET windows allow plenty of natural daylight into the shed while being stronger than traditional glazing. They also resist yellowing, fading and becoming brittle over time.

Does this shed require annual wood treatment?

No. The pressure-treated timber is backed by a 25 Year Anti-Rot Guarantee, so no annual preservative treatments are required, making it a low-maintenance garden storage solution.
