Overview
The Overlap Pressure Treated 8x6 Apex Shed with Double Doors from Forest is a great storage solution for all types of gardening equipment, from bikes to lawnmowers.
The generous headroom and Double Doors mean there's plenty of room to move around and easy access. The shed's improved design features smaller sections, making it easier to handle and easy to assemble.
The straight cut boards are overlapped allowing for natural movement of the timber so it can adapt to the changing weather and aid rainwater run-off. The garden building features increased framing and an additional metal roof truss bracket for optimal strength. With more timber, these are the best overlap sheds we've ever made. The doors are braced with strong double “Z” framing, have secure hidden hinges and are fitted with a hasp and staple latch that can be used with your own padlock.
The two fixed windows are made from shatterproof PET glazing, which will not become yellow or brittle over time. This flexible shed is made up of modular sections where same size panels are interchangeable, this means you can choose which side the window panel goes during assembly, or move the window panel forward or backwards. The roof is made from hard-wearing sheet material finished with black sand felt and the shed comes with a sturdy timber floor as standard, ideal for storing heavier gardening equipment and much stronger than more common OSB.
These quality garden sheds are manufactured in the UK with certified timber. The Pressure Treatment of this shed gives it a guarantee against rot for 15 years. All fixtures, fittings and felt needed to build this 8x6 shed are included, along with easy to follow instructions.

Delivery Information
You will be contacted towards the end of your lead time by Forest Garden or their Courier with a delivery date. If this date is not convenient you can reply to the message to book a more convenient delivery date. The delivery timescales are as stated on the product page with the exception of the below Post Codes where the lead time may be extended: AB-CO-DD-DG-EH-FK-G-IP-IV-KA KW-KY-ML-NR-PA-PE-PH-PL-TD-TR.
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.

The best choice ever
I bought this shed with the knowledge of previous review with one star only.
What can I say now - it was a very good choice.
The shed came in correctly prepared parts, with all screws (tbh I used same mine) and clear instruction.
Obviously, I had to prepare the place for it, it was a hard job, but now the shed is properly assembled and serves me well.
Yeah, one part wasn't perfectly straight, but that's normal with wood products and was easy to correct.
Summing up - the product is worth its (really low) price.

AWFUL Quality and poorly pre-built areas
Purchased this product but when we started to put the shed up, as from the pictures, you can see that the roof beam is bent, the slat walls are bent and both the front and back Apex are barely attached using flimsy nails.
This looks like it'll let all the elements in and collapse at the slightest breeze!
DO NOT BUY!!

Poor quality shed that cannot be recommended
Delivery of the shed was fine and the courier was helpful and pleasant. Unfortunately the quality of the shed for the £509.99 we paid was awful. I have scrap wood in my yard that is far better quality than the wood supplied in the kit. We treated all panels with Ronseal before construction. After banging my head several times on the door opening it was evident that the shed would have to raised up on 4 inch bearers. This 7x5 shed was not the cheapest on offer on this site. Would not recommend this shed at all and would not buy another one again.
