Forest 4LIFE Reverse Apex Shed 5x7 - Double Door - 2 Windows
The Forest 4LIFE Reverse Apex Shed 5x7 with Double Doors and 2 Windows is a compact yet practical garden shed that offers secure storage without taking up too much outdoor space. Perfect for smaller gardens, it provides plenty of room for storing gardening tools, outdoor furniture, bicycles and seasonal equipment while maintaining a neat and attractive appearance.
Featuring Forest Garden's innovative modular design, the shed is supplied in manageable sections that make assembly quicker and easier. The enhanced construction also uses more timber than traditional overlap sheds, resulting in a stronger and longer-lasting building.
Built for Everyday Strength
Constructed from traditional 7mm straight-cut overlap timber boards, this shed is designed to allow the timber to naturally expand and contract with changing weather conditions while promoting efficient rainwater run-off. Combined with framing that is approximately 30% thicker than many comparable overlap sheds, it delivers impressive strength and durability.
The pressure-treated timber is protected by a market-leading 25 Year Anti-Rot Guarantee, meaning there's no need for annual preservative treatments. Simply assemble the shed and enjoy years of low-maintenance performance.
Heavy-Duty Floor and Weatherproof Roof
Unlike many standard sheds that use OSB flooring, this model includes a robust 12mm solid timber boarded floor, making it ideal for storing heavier garden equipment, shelving, bicycles, lawn mowers and power tools.
The reverse apex roof is constructed from durable 8mm solid sheet boarding and finished with a weather-resistant green mineral felt covering to help keep the contents dry throughout the seasons.
Bright Interior with Enhanced Security
The two shatterproof PET glazed windows allow natural daylight into the shed while providing a safer alternative to traditional glass. The glazing resists yellowing, fading and brittleness, ensuring it remains clear and attractive over time.
Wide double doors make it easy to move larger items in and out of the shed. Reinforced with strong double Z framing to minimise movement, the doors also feature hidden hinges and a padlock-ready hasp and staple latch (padlock not included) to help keep your belongings secure.
Classic Styling and Convenient Delivery
Finished with a traditional reverse apex roof, smooth-planed barge boards and an attractive diamond-shaped finial, this shed offers classic garden styling that complements both modern and traditional outdoor spaces.
Manufactured in the UK using FSC® certified timber and other responsibly sourced materials, the shed is supplied with all required fixings and easy-to-follow assembly instructions.
Delivery is included to most UK mainland addresses through Forest Garden's White Glove Delivery Service, with the shed placed directly into your garden and all packaging removed for your convenience.

FAQs
Is this shed suitable for smaller gardens?
Yes. The 5x7 size is ideal for compact gardens where space is limited but secure storage is still required for tools, bikes and garden equipment.
Are the windows made from glass?
No. The shed features shatterproof PET glazing, which is more durable than traditional glass and won't yellow or become brittle over time.
Does the shed require annual wood treatment?
No. The pressure-treated timber is protected by a 25 Year Anti-Rot Guarantee, so annual preservative treatments are not required to maintain its anti-rot protection.
