UK made, packed with premium features and backed by a market-leading 25-year guarantee, 4Life™ Sheds are the best range of overlap sheds Forest has ever made. This one is the 6' x 4' Forest 4Life Overlap Pressure Treated Windowless Double Door Apex Wooden Shed (1.99m x 1.23m), so provides secure garden storage for a smaller outside area.
Fully Modular Build with a 4Life™ Guarantee
This garden shed is pressure treated and backed by the longest guarantee on the market, so no further treatment is required, saving you lots of time and money. You'll only ever need one shed with a 4Life™ Shed!
An improved fully modular design means this shed is delivered in smaller sections of interchangeable panels but you get more wood, so it's much easier to assemble and far stronger than other wooden sheds. These interchangeable panels also give you a market-leading choice of door positions (please see the floor plan for further details).
The timber used to build this 6x4 shed is FSC® certified, which is the only wood certification scheme endorsed by all the major environmental charities.
Walls, Floor and Roof
Supported by 30% more framing than found on most wooden sheds, the walls are constructed from 7mm overlap cladding. These smart, straight-cut wooden boards allow for the natural movement of the timber over the changing seasons and provide excellent rainwater runoff.
Supported by pressure-treated bearers, the 14mm solid timber floor is 40% thicker than most shed floors! The roof is built from tough 8mm OSB and comes with a mineral-felt cover to keep the interior completely dry. It has a traditional apex design and offers plenty of headroom. Smooth-planed barge boards and finials perfectly round off the shed's incredibly stylish appearance.
Security Doors and Windowless Design
Ledged and braced doors provide storage-friendly access to the shed. They feature hidden security hinges plus a hasp & staple plate to keep your valuable tools secure (padlock not included).
The windowless design provides another layer of security by deterring unwanted attention.
Forest's White Glove Delivery Service
Free delivery is available to most UK addresses using Forest's White Glove Service, who will deliver the shed straight into your garden, with all of its packaging removed. Fixings and instructions are included for a straightforward assembly.

Shed Base Options
Wooden Shed Base Kit
As an alternative to laying slabs or concrete, this shed base is a faster, more cost effective DIY solution.
The wooden shed base consists of a framework that is made from UC4 incised timber which has been pressure treated. The pressure treatment ensures that the framework is robust and is guaranteed to resist rot for an impressive 15 years.
Size of base: 7.5cm (h) x 118cm (w) x 182.6cm (d)
Plastic Shed Base Kit
Quick and simple to install, the 6x4 plastic shed base kit is ideal for avoiding the hassle of laying slabs or concrete when preparing a base for a new shed. Its interlocking design makes it easy to put together and, though lightweight, it provides a very strong and durable base for the shed. Made from 100% recycled plastic, this shed base is eco-friendly. Also, it can be reused if the shed is repositioned. The base allows for ventilation and drainage under the shed, helping to keep the shed floor dry.
To install the base, simply interlock the square grids together and lay onto a firm, level area of ground. We recommend using 15kg of 10mm pea gravel per square (gravel not included). Each square is 500 x 500 x 40mm. This pack contains 12 squares and heavy-duty, commercially-graded weed membrane.
Please be advised that we do not assemble plastic shed bases as part of our installation service. A helpful video of how to install this plastic shed base can be found here. You must prepare the base yourself, in accordance with the supplied instructions, in advance of the installers' visit. Laying the base straight onto grass will not be suitable and the installers will not be able to assemble your garden building.
