Overview

The Oakley 8x6 Summerhouse from Forest is packed full of fantastic features, such as the ¾ length windows, glazed double doors and full-length side windows so the interior is really flooded with light. The larger size makes it the perfect place to retreat and do some work, enjoy a hobby or even somewhere to entertain guests.

Manufactured using traditional overlap board construction to encourage rainwater run-off, while a high-quality mineral-felted roof ensures the building is water-tight. The solid timber boarded floor is stronger than normal OSB sheet flooring, offering better weight-bearing capabilities for things such as furniture. The timber used for these summerhouses has been Pressure Treated to give a 15-year guarantee against rot and fungal damage.

The windows are glazed with shatter-resistant acrylic, which is lightweight and a much safer alternative to glass. The smooth-planed scalloped barge boards and decorative finial finish this summerhouse house off beautifully.

The Oakley Summerhouse is also available in the following sizes: 7x5 and 7x7

We are sorry but Forest Garden do not deliver or offer an assembly service to the following Postal Codes: BT1-BT99, GY1-GY9, HS1-HS9, IM1-IM9, IV41-IV56, JE1-JE5, KA27-KA28, KW15-KW17, PO30-PO41, PO49, TR21-TR25.

Installation Process

We also offer an installation service on selected products. So, if you’d rather take a back seat when it comes to building, don’t worry. Our assembly service means your new purchase is in safe hands and you can leave all the hard work and heavy lifting to us.
 
After you have booked in your delivery, you will be contacted separately to arrange a suitable installation date. This will usually be carried out by our own expert fitting team. However, depending on your location or purchase, we may use a third-party company.
 
Some products, such as the Vale Greenhouses, Gazebos and Retreat Sheds, offer installation on the same day as delivery. For most products, however, delivery and installation will be arranged separately. Installation is typically within 7-10 days of delivery, however at certain times of the season and depending on postcode this can increase to 3-4 weeks, please check with your retailer when ordering.
 
Upon delivery of your product, it is important to check all parts and sections to ensure everything is present. If there are any shortages or damaged parts, please contact us and we will ensure the required parts are supplied before the installation team arrive. If a job is aborted because the item has not been checked there will be a further charge to rebook.
 
Ideally, store the product as close to the assembly location as possible with the sections laid flat and cover the roof and floor sheets where practical.
We do offer the service of installing in your absence as long as you have side access. We do need written consent and clear instructions on the position of the shed.
 
On the day of Installation please ensure:
 
- There is a suitable solid level base prepared before the installers arrive on the day. If you require advice on building a base, please see our base preparation letter for guidance. Should the job be aborted due to an unsuitable base, there is likely to be a revisit charge.
 
- The area for the build is unobstructed. The installation team require at least 18 inches around the whole building. Therefore, please ensure there are no obstacles that may hinder the installation such as other garden buildings, fish ponds or structures. Please make sure all vegetation is cut back prior to the installers arriving to allow for a successful build. Also, please make sure the garden is free of any trip hazards such as children’s toys, tools, etc. We also ask that any pet waste has been cleared from the garden.
 
- You have requested permission from your neighbours for our assembly team’s access if required.
 
- There is suitable access to the installation site without having to enter your property. We are not insured to carry items through your property. If you do not have suitable access then you will have to arrange for the items to be moved to the site of installation prior to the fitters arriving.
- There are adequate parking facilities for the assembly team’s vehicle and any necessary parking permits have been secured.
 
- There is access to power at the site (our installation teams carry extension cables).
 
- There is someone at the property for the entire time of the installation. This is particularly important so the installers can check you are happy with the siting of the product prior to the commencement of installation, and for the installers to familiarise you with your new building after the build is complete.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good value for money/ lovely summer house Only just put this up, good quality and easy to use instructions. Needs 2 people. I love the way the windows are, on front corner, so with this plus the windows in door, you can see around more when inside the summer house.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from You get what you pay for Quality of the wood poor. Some design features need to be improved. Went together very well. Overall reasonably pleased as quality would cost a lot more

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Don't. What ever you do, do not buy this summer house. The quality is the beyond poor. Be prepared to purchase extra timer to replace and repair shoddy quality and dreadful workmanship, along with boxes of extra screws. Pay a bit more because this rubbish will add plenty to your original costs.
