Product Description
This Shiplap Tongue & Groove Dip Treated 8×6 potting shed from Forest has a practical design and is built to last. This garden building will help keep your garden clutter free and offers a secure space for you to store garden equipment. Far more than just a storage space, this potting shed has been carefully designed to maximise the elements that are prime for planting, seeding and potting.
With 10 fixed windows it lets in extra light. Two opening windows enable you to help keep the temperature and air flow at an appropriate level. The design features smaller sections, making it easier to handle and to assemble.
Supplied with two sets of two-tier modular plant staging that can be positioned in a row in front of the window or in the corner.
The windows are made from shatterproof PET glazing, which will not become yellow or brittle over time. The potting shed is modular in its design, allowing you to choose whether to hang the door to the left or the right of the window panel and which way it opens.
The potting shed is made using robust, interlocking, weather-beating pressure treated shiplap cladding throughout, giving it a watertight seal. Supported by 30%-thicker framing than found on most sheds, this potting shed is constructed to last. The pressure treatment that has been applied gives this potting shed a 25-year anti-rot guarantee, giving you complete maintenance freedom, annual preservative treatment is NEVER needed! Most other potting sheds require treatment once built then yearly thereafter.
Rather than the more common OSB (oriented strand board), this 8×6 potting features an extra-thick interlocking tongue and grove floor allowing for the storage of heavier items.
This 8×6 potting shed’s door features a double-Z frame, giving strength and to prevent door movement. Security is enhanced with hidden hinges and a heavy duty, traditional pad bolt to keep valuable items safe (padlock not included).
Handcrafted in the UK using FSC® certified timber, this potting shed comes with a full set of fixings and clear instructions to help you achieve a straightforward assembly.
Delivered free to most UK addresses, using Forest Garden’s White Glove Delivery Service, so will be dropped off wherever you want it in your garden, with all packaging removed.
