If you’re after a British-built potting shed to help your plants prosper and store gardening tools, choose the 8 x 6 Forest 25yr Guarantee Shiplap Pressure Treated Potting Shed (2.42m x 1.99m). Here’s what makes this planting shed such a wonderful choice…
Modular Design, Pressure-Treated Wood and the Longest Guarantee on the Market
This garden potting shed is expertly designed and built by Britain's leading manufacturer of wooden sheds. Pressure treated and supplied with an extraordinary 25-year anti-rot guarantee, which is the longest guarantee on the market, the wood will never need retreating against rot, sparing you the inconvenience of costly, time-consuming maintenance and providing you with an unbeatably durable shed.
Featuring a complete modular design, this wooden potting shed is delivered to you in smaller sections of interchangeable panels, so you'll find it much easier to assemble than other potting sheds. This modular design also allows you flexibility with door placements, helping you customise the potting shed to your exact requirements. What’s more, with 30% thicker framing, this garden potting shed isn't just easier to assemble and more versatile than other wooden potting sheds, it's far stronger too.
A Robust, Weathertight and Supremely Stylish Potting Shed
The walls are constructed from 12mm shiplap tongue and groove cladding, on a 28 x 56mm frame, making for a robust and durable garden building. The tightly-interlocking boards ensure the shed remains completely weathertight, while shiplap’s scalloped profile provides excellent rainwater runoff.
Expertly made from premium 12mm tongue and groove, the floor is perfectly equipped to accommodate your heavier items and cope with regular footfall. It is supported by pressure-treated bearers, providing a further layer of protection against rot-causing ground moisture.
Reinforced by a metal truss bracket, the roof is built from tough 8mm OSB and fitted with a green mineral-felt cover for complete weatherproof protection. It comes with a traditional apex design, barge boards and eye-catching finials. The wood’s smooth-planed finish perfectly rounds off the potting shed’s timelessly attractive appearance.
Security Door, Shatterproof Glazing and Staging
You can access this potting shed via a single door, which can be installed at either end of the structure to suit the orientation of your garden. Ledged and braced for extra strength and to prevent dropping/ movement, this door is fitted with hidden security hinges and a pad bolt to give you peace of mind that your valuable tools and invaluable plants are safe (padlock not included).
Once inside, you'll find the high roofline allows plenty of headroom, along with the chance to store taller gardening tools. The 2 opening windows offer you the chance to ventilate the potting shed and optimise growing conditions. With the addition of 10 fixed windows, they also provide an abundance of natural light – again, just what your plants require. All of these windows are made from acrylic, so are completely shatterproof and will neither discolour nor fade over time.
The 2 sets of 2-tier staging are made from premium timber. They are perfectly designed to help you pot your plants and contain ample room for pots, seed trays, soil bags and more.
Ethically Sourced and Locally Built for a Brighter Future
This 8x6 potting shed is handcrafted in Great Britain from FSC® certified British wood, so the timber is sourced from sustainable, well-managed forests and the manufacturing process’s environmental impact is kept to a minimum.
