Description

With all the practicalities and safety features of its counterparts this 4 x 6 Reverse Apex Overlap Shed has a twist thanks to its reverse apex shaped roof. You find it has extra eaves height for additional storage, one fixed window on the 6ft front width which is secured with security screws. The polycarbonate glazing is unbreakable and will not become yellow or brittle over time. There’s a generous size single door for easy access.

The Forest 4 x 6 Reverse Apex Overlap Shed has a “modular” design. Modular sheds have many advantages, including making the positioning of windows and doors interchangeable. It also means that the wall panels of the shed are manufactured in smaller parts, making handling and assembly easier as well as increasing the overall strength of the building. All Forest modular design sheds come as standard with a 14mm boarded floor for additional strength and a stronger roof support design with metal bracing.

Security plays a big part in this shed’s construction as you’ll find it has hidden hinges, a plate hasp and staple latch and its doors are strengthened with extra diagonal framing. These features combined with its 10 year anti-rot guarantee (provided the shed is isolated from ground contact) and FSC approved timber make it a great purchase.

Manufactured from square-cut overlap timber boards allowing flexibility and movement during the changing seasons. The glazing is virtually unbreakable because it is made from strong P.E.T. and the window is fitted with security screws. The roof is layered with a weatherproof black sand felt; adding durability and also looks.

This is a self-assembly shed. However we also offer optional assembly.

Treating your building

The timber is dip treated and guaranteed against rot for 10 years, provided that the shed is isolated from ground contact and is regularly retreated with timber preservative. Many manufacturers recommend Protek Paint, available to purchase from elbec.
