Description

Forest Beckwood 25yr Guarantee Shiplap Pressure Treated Sheds provide you with more than just somewhere to keep your tools. Expertly designed and beautifully built, to provide supreme weatherproof protection, this model is the 8x6 Double Door Apex Shed (2.42m x 1.99m), and here's what it has to offer...

A Modular Shed with the Longest Guarantee on the Market

This garden shed features a complete modular design, so is delivered in smaller sections of interchangeable panels but you get more overall timber. This makes it much easier to assemble and far stronger than other wooden sheds. The modular design also allows you to choose the door and window positions, so you can customise the shed to your precise requirements.

Pressure treated, smooth planed and backed by the longest guarantee on the market, the wood will never need retreating against rot, saving you lots of time and money on maintenance.

Made from Premium Materials

Constructed from 12mm shiplap tongue and groove cladding, on 28mm x 56mm framing, this 8x6 shed's tightly-interlocking walls are strong, long lasting and completely weathertight.

The floor is built from 12mm tongue and groove, so will easily cope with heavier stored items and regular footfall. It is supported by pressure-treated bearers for a further layer of protection against ground moisture. Reinforced by a metal truss bracket, the apex roof is made from 8mm OSB and fitted with a weatherproof felt cover. The high roofline provides plenty of headroom and gives you the chance to store taller items. Barge boards and finials nicely round off the shed's exceptionally stylish appearance.

Doors and Windows

Ledged and braced double doors provide easy access to the shed. You can install them in different positions to suit the orientation of your garden. They are fitted with hidden security hinges and a pad bolt to keep your valuable tools safe (padlock not included).

The 2 windows allow plenty of natural light into the shed. They are made from 3mm acrylic and completely shatterproof - perfect for a busy, family-orientated garden. You can install these windows in a variety of positions - again, the choice is yours.

Choose a Beckwood Shed for a Brighter Future

The wood used to build this shed is FSC® certified UK timber, so is only sourced from sustainable, well-managed UK forests. And as the shed is manufactured in the UK too, its carbon footprint is kept to a minimum.

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.

Optional Upgrades

A pressure-treated shed base and professional installation service are both available for you to buy as optional extras.

Shed Base Options

Wooden Shed Base

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 236cm (w) x 182.6cm (d)

 

 

Plastic Shed Base

Plastic Shed Base Kit

Quick and simple to install, the 8x6 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 20 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. You must prepare the base yourself in advance of the installers' visit.

Why Choose a Forest Shiplap Beckwood Shed?

Supplied with a market-leading 25-year anti-rot guarantee as standard, Beckwood Sheds are robust, durable and packed full of premium features. Their tight, interlocking shiplap tongue & groove construction forms an unbeatable weatherproof seal and makes for an exceptionally attractive appearance.

 

Why you need a Forest Beckwood Shiplap Shed?

 

If you want to buy a Great British shed that offers more than just plain, old garden storage, choose a Forest Beckwood Shed. Supplied with a market-leading 25-year anti-rot guarantee as standard, Forest Beckwood Sheds are robust and durable, offering weather beating performance.  The tightly-interlocking boards ensure the shed remains completely weathertight, while shiplap’s scalloped profile provides excellent rainwater runoff.

 

1. Weather Beating 12mm Shiplap Tongue & Groove Construction

Beckwood sheds are built from interlocking 12mm shiplap tongue & groove boards, which are robust, durable and supremely weathertight. The tightly-interlocking boards ensure the shed remains completely weathertight, while shiplap’s scalloped profile provides excellent rainwater runoff. 

2. Metal Roof Truss Brackets

Larger apex models feature a metal roof truss bracket, which adds strength to the roof and ensures best alignment (not available on sizes below 7x7).

3. High Quality Roof with Durable High Grade Felt

The Beckwood shed range roofs are built from tough 8mm OSB and fitted with a mineral-felt cover for complete weatherproof protection. Don’t underestimate the importance of a high-quality roof as it is your shed’s first line of defence against the elements.

4. Increased Security Windows

The windows are made from acrylic glazing and provide an abundance of natural light. These windows are completely shatterproof and will neither discolour nor fade over time. You can install them in a variety of positions -  the choice is yours.

5. Pressure Treated Fully Interchangeable Modular Construction

Pressure treated and supplied with an extraordinary 25-year anti-rot guarantee, which is the longest guarantee on the market, the wood will never need retreating against rot, sparing you the inconvenience of costly, time-consuming maintenance and providing you with an unbeatably durable shed. Featuring a complete modular design, these workshops are delivered to you in smaller sections of interchangeable panels, so you'll find them much easier to assemble than other wooden sheds. This modular design also allows you flexibility with door and window placements, helping you customise the shed to your exact requirements.

6. Thicker Timber Framing for Increased Stength

These sheds come with a 28mm x 56mm frame, which is 30% thicker than most wooden sheds. This extra framing ensures even greater strength and stability. These garden sheds aren't just easier to assemble and more versatile than other wooden sheds, they're far stronger too.

7. Hidden Security Hinges

Beckwood doors are fitted with hidden security hinges, which cannot be tampered with from the outside.

8. Robust Doors with Double Z Framing

Far stronger and more secure than those found on other wooden sheds, Forest Beckwood Shed doors are reinforced with sturdy double-Z framing. This prevents them from warping, sagging or dropping. 

9. Secure Heavy Duty Pad Bolt

The doors are also fitted with a secure heavy duty traditional pad bolt (padlock not included).

10. Sturdy Interlocking Tongue and Groove Boarded Floor

The robust and stable 12mm tongue and groove floor is elevated by pressure-treated joists for extra protection from ground moisture. Due to its thickness, a tongue and groove floor improves the shed’s level of insulation and will neither buckle under the weight of heavier items nor regular footfall.

Highly Adaptable &

Security Enhanced

 

Fully modular panels - means that the same size panels are interchangeable. You choose the window and door placement of your shed.

Modular panels - are smaller and easier to handle - meaning sheds are quicker and simpler to bulid.

QUICK AND EASY CONSTRUCTION.

Pressure Treatment Process Explained

The Pressure Treatment process for timber has been applied to products for a number of years; the key benefit of this process is that the preservative is forced under vacuum pressure right deep into the heart of the wood and the grain structure. The preservative becomes an integral part of the wood; giving a long life and protection against rot.

 

This process also means that you never have to apply preservatives to your garden shed, and it allows the natural colours of the timber to show through and so your shed blends easily within your garden. Surprisingly, our Pressure Treated Sheds are only slightly more expensive than Dip Treated Sheds.

VACUUM

Timber is loaded into chamber and a vacuum empties timber cells of air.

FLOODED

Cylinder is flooded under vacuum with preservative.

PRESSURE

Preservative is forced deep into timber using hydraulic pressure.

VACUUM

Another vacuum extracts excess preservative.

 

DRY

Timber draws in surface excess of preservative under low pressure, then is left to dry.

 

NO NEED TO RE-TREAT - SAVING YOU TIME AND MONEY!
