Forest 4LIFE Reverse Apex Shed 5x7 - Double Door - No Windows
The Forest 4LIFE Reverse Apex Shed 5x7 with Double Doors and No Windows is a compact, secure and practical garden shed that's ideal for keeping tools, equipment and outdoor essentials safely stored. Its windowless design offers added privacy, making it an excellent choice for storing valuable items while fitting neatly into smaller gardens where space is limited.
Featuring Forest Garden's improved modular construction, the shed is supplied in easy-to-handle sections that simplify assembly while creating a stronger finished building. The modular design also incorporates more timber than many traditional overlap sheds, resulting in improved durability and long-lasting performance.
Strong and Built to Last
Constructed from 7mm straight-cut overlap timber boards, this shed allows the timber to naturally expand and contract with seasonal weather changes while encouraging efficient rainwater run-off. Supported by framing that is approximately 30% thicker than many comparable overlap sheds, it provides excellent strength and stability.
The pressure-treated timber is backed by Forest Garden's impressive 25 Year Anti-Rot Guarantee, meaning you never need to apply annual preservative treatments. It's designed to provide years of low-maintenance performance.
Heavy-Duty Floor and Weatherproof Roof
Instead of a standard OSB floor, this shed features a strong 12mm solid tongue and groove timber floor, providing excellent support for heavier garden equipment, bicycles, shelving, lawn mowers and power tools.
The reverse apex roof is manufactured from durable 8mm solid sheet boarding and finished with a weather-resistant green mineral felt covering to help keep the interior dry and protected all year round.
Enhanced Security for Valuable Equipment
The windowless design helps keep the contents hidden from view, making this shed an excellent option for securely storing expensive tools and garden machinery.
The wide double doors provide convenient access for larger items and are reinforced with robust double Z framing to reduce movement and improve strength. Hidden hinges prevent tampering from outside, while a padlock-ready hasp and staple latch (padlock not included) offers additional security.
Traditional Styling and Easy Delivery
Finished with a classic reverse apex roof, smooth-planed barge boards and a decorative diamond-shaped finial, this shed combines traditional appearance with modern durability.
Manufactured in the UK using FSC® certified timber and other responsibly sourced materials, it is supplied complete with all necessary 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 carefully positioned in your garden and all packaging removed before the delivery team leaves.

FAQs
Why choose a windowless shed?
A windowless shed offers greater privacy and security by keeping valuable tools, bicycles and garden equipment out of sight, making it an excellent option for secure storage.
Is the floor strong enough for heavy equipment?
Yes. The shed features a robust 12mm solid tongue and groove timber floor that is designed to support heavier items such as lawn mowers, shelving units, workbenches and power tools.

No. The pressure-treated timber is protected by Forest Garden's 25 Year Anti-Rot Guarantee, so annual preservative treatment is not required to maintain its anti-rot protection.
