Forest Beckwood 5x3 Apex Shed - 2 Windows
The Forest Beckwood 5x3 Apex Shed with 2 Windows is a compact yet highly durable garden shed, perfect for storing gardening tools, outdoor equipment, bicycles and seasonal items. Expertly manufactured in Britain, it combines traditional styling with premium materials to create a secure and attractive storage solution that is built to withstand the British weather.
Its fully modular design uses smaller, interchangeable panels that make handling and assembly much easier than a traditional shed. The flexible construction also allows you to choose whether the single door is fitted with a left or right-hand opening to best suit your available space.
Premium Shiplap Tongue & Groove Construction
Built using 12mm pressure treated Shiplap Tongue & Groove cladding, this shed features smooth-planed interlocking boards that create a strong, watertight and weather-resistant exterior. The heavy-duty framework uses 28 x 28mm timber framing, which is approximately 30% thicker than many standard wooden sheds, providing outstanding strength and long-lasting durability.
The timber is pressure treated throughout and protected by Forest's industry-leading 25-year anti-rot guarantee, meaning there's no need for annual preservative treatments.
Strong Floor & Weatherproof Roof
Unlike many garden sheds that use standard OSB flooring, the Beckwood features a durable 12mm Tongue & Groove boarded floor, providing excellent strength for storing heavier equipment such as lawnmowers, shelving units, garden machinery and power tools.
The traditional apex roof is manufactured from 8mm solid sheet boarding and finished with a high-quality mineral felt covering to provide dependable protection from the elements while encouraging effective rainwater run-off.
Bright Interior with Secure Windows
This model includes two fixed windows, allowing natural daylight to brighten the interior and create a more comfortable workspace. The glazing is manufactured from durable acrylic, offering a safer alternative to traditional glass while resisting yellowing and fading over time.
The reinforced single door features a double-Z frame for extra strength and stability, while hidden hinges and a heavy-duty pad bolt (padlock not included) help keep your belongings secure. The door can also be installed to open from either the left or right during assembly.
Built in Britain
Handcrafted in the UK using FSC® certified timber from responsibly managed forests, the Beckwood 5x3 Apex Shed is supplied with all necessary fixings and clear instructions for straightforward self-assembly.
The shed is delivered using Forest Garden's White Glove Delivery Service, meaning it will be placed in your chosen location with all packaging removed for your convenience.
