The Overlap Dip Treated 8x6 Apex Shed from Forest is a great storage solution for all types of large gardening equipment. The traditional apex shed has plenty of headroom and space to move around, whilst the 2 windows let in plenty of light. The shed's improved design features smaller sections, making it easier to handle and easy to assemble. Rather than the more common OSB, this shed features a Pressure Treated solid timber floor. Its superior strength allows for the storage of heavier items like lawnmowers or bags of compost.
The straight cut boards are overlapped allowing for natural movement of the timber so it can adapt to the changing seasons and aid rain water run-off. The building has more timber with increased framing and an additional metal roof truss bracket for optimal strength - these are the best overlap sheds we've ever made. The door is braced with strong double ?Z? framing, has secure hidden hinges and is fitted with a hasp and staple latch that can be used with your own padlock. It can be hinged either side of the opening to suit your garden.
The two fixed windows are made from shatterproof PET glazing, which will not become yellow or brittle over time. This flexible shed is made up of modular sections where same size panels are interchangeable, this means you can choose which side the window panel goes during assembly, or move the window panel forward or backwards. The roof is made from hard wearing sheet material finished with black sand felt.
The Dip Treatment that has been applied protects the timber from rot and fungal decay. This 8x6 Apex Shed is supplied with a 10 year guarantee against rot, annual retreatment is required. These great value garden sheds are manufactured in the UK using FSC certified timber from sustainable sources and come with all fixtures, fittings and felt needed to build, along with easy to follow instructions.
Due to current felt availability, the colour supplied may vary from product description.
