Forest Shiplap PTR 4x6 Apex Garden Bar
Turn your garden into the ultimate entertaining space with the Forest Shiplap PTR 4x6 Apex Garden Bar. Ideal for hosting summer parties, family BBQs or relaxing evenings with friends, this stylish timber garden bar offers the perfect place to serve drinks and food while adding a unique feature to your outdoor space. When the entertaining is over, it also doubles as a secure storage building, making it a practical investment all year round.
The garden bar features a generous serving hatch with bi-fold shutters and a solid serving counter, allowing you to easily open up the front when entertaining and securely close everything away afterwards. Its attractive reverse apex roof also creates a useful overhead storage shelf while providing extra headroom and protection from the weather.
Premium Pressure Treated Construction
Built in Britain using high-quality pressure treated Shiplap Tongue & Groove cladding, this garden bar combines strength, durability and an attractive finish. The smooth-planed interlocking boards create a weather-resistant, watertight structure, while the reinforced framework uses 30% thicker timber framing than many standard garden buildings for exceptional rigidity.
The pressure-treated timber is protected against rot and fungal decay, allowing Forest to offer an outstanding 25-year anti-rot guarantee without the need for annual preservative treatments.
Designed for Entertaining and Everyday Storage
The clever modular design allows the access door to be fitted at either end during assembly, making it easy to position the building to suit your garden.
The spacious interior provides plenty of room for storing drinks, glasses, outdoor dining accessories and garden equipment. Once summer is over, simply close the bi-fold shutters and lock the door with the heavy-duty pad bolt to use it as a secure storage shed throughout the winter months.
The building is supplied in a natural timber finish, giving you the freedom to paint or stain it to match your garden style.
Strong Floor, Secure Design & Weather Protection
Unlike many similar garden buildings that use standard OSB flooring, this garden bar benefits from a durable 14mm boarded timber floor, making it suitable for regular foot traffic and heavier stored items.
The reverse apex roof is manufactured from 8mm solid sheet boarding and finished with a weatherproof felt covering to help protect the building from the elements throughout the year.
Security has also been carefully considered, with a strong double-Z framed door, hidden hinges and a traditional heavy-duty pad bolt (padlock sold separately) helping to keep your belongings secure.
