Description

Help your plants thrive, and keep your gardening tools secure, with the weather-beating 8 x 6 Forest 25yr Guarantee Shiplap Pressure Treated Potting Shed (2.42m x 1.99m).

A Modular Potting Shed with the Longest Guarantee on the Market

This garden potting 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 potting sheds. The modular design also allows you to choose the door position, so you can customise the potting 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 potting 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 potting shed’s exceptionally stylish appearance.

Door, Windows and Staging

A ledged and braced door provides easy access to the potting shed. You can install it either end of the structure to suit the orientation of your garden. It is fitted with hidden security hinges and a pad bolt to keep your gardening tools safe (padlock not included).

The 2 opening windows aid ventilation. Together with the 10 fixed windows, they also provide an abundance of natural light - exactly what your plants need to thrive. All of these windows are made from acrylic and completely shatterproof – perfect for a busy, family-orientated garden.

The 2 sets of 2-tier staging offer a great place to pot your plants, and contain ample room to store tools, seed trays and bags of soil too.

Choose a Forest Potting Shed for a Brighter Future

The wood used to build this potting shed is FSC® certified UK timber, so is only sourced from sustainable, well-managed UK forests. And as the potting 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 this planting shed straight into your garden, with all of its packaging removed. Fixings and instructions are included for a straightforward assembly.

Why choose a Forest Potting Shed?

At last, a potting shed to meet every gardener's needs! This uniquely-designed Forest Shiplap Potting Shed has one eye on growing, the other on storage, so provides the perfect environment to pot plants PLUS a stylish, secure home for your tools. Its premium build and market-leading 25-year anti-rot guarantee make this potting shed the long-term answer to all of your gardening requirements.

TREATMENT

Pressure treatment forces preservative deep inside the wood. The result is long-lasting protection against rot and fungal decay. There is no need to re-treat EVER, saving an estimated £200 in time and treatment costs compared to dip-treated sheds.

CLADDING

Shiplap cladding provides consistency and strength as well as providing the traditional style we all know and love. The tightly-interlocking boards ensure the shed remains completely weathertight, while shiplap’s scalloped profile provides excellent rainwater runoff.

TONGUE & 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.

ROOF COVERING

The roof is made from 8mm OSB and comes with a premium mineral felt covering. This ensures it is tough, durable and completely weathertight.

WINDOWS

Ten fixed windows allow an abundance of natural light to flow into the shed, while 2 further opening windows provide you with welcome ventilation on a hot, sunny day. Our windows are glazed with acrylic glazing. These windows are completely shatterproof and will neither discolour nor fade over time.

DOORS

The single door can be positioned at either side of the shed, with a left or right-hand opening. It is ledged, braced and fitted with a pad bolt, so rest assured that your valuable tools will remain safe from unwanted attention (padlock not supplied).

THE PERFECT SOLUTION FOR GROWING AND STORAGE

PLANT STAGING INCLUDE

Supplied with two sets of two-tier plant staging.

FLEXIBLE DOORS

Single door can be fitted with a left- or right-hand opening.

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.

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!
