Beckwood Sheds
Forest Garden sells its line of pressure treated shiplap sheds under the Beckwood brand. The majority of the wood used in their construction, which is produced to the finest standards in rural Worcestershire, comes from sustainable Scottish forests and woodlands.
These pressure-treated sheds are long-lasting and won't need to have wood preservatives retreated every year. There is a large selection of Beckwood sheds available; these are covered in more detail below.
Beckwood sheds overview
Customers who purchase Beckwood sheds can expect numerous benefits. Each shed is backed by an anti-rot guarantee of twenty five years, ensuring long-term resilience against decay. These sheds are also low maintenance and require no annual wood preservative treatment (like dip treated sheds would). The use of shiplap tongue and groove cladding, which is pressure treated in its construction makes Beckwood sheds particularly resistant to British weather, providing strong weather protection.
Additionally, the sheds have an interchangeable modular structure, allowing purchasers to fully modify the design to their preferences, particularly the location of windows and doors. Our Beckwood sheds range (a Forest Garden trading brand) is supplied with the convenience of being delivered for free right to your garden across most UK postcodes.
Sizes options

- Small sheds – a compact 4’x3’ shed rising to up to 8’x6’, these are ideal for small to medium-sized gardens. Popular sizes of 6'x4', 7'x5', 7'x7' are all available
- Large sheds – a wide selection is available, right up to 20’x10’ in size, with popular sizes of 10'x6', 10'x8', and 12'x8'
Roofing styles
There are three roofing styles available these are:
- Apex – featuring a familiar and popular triangular shape, this provides effective drainage of rainwater. Apex is a timeless traditional roofing style that is ever popular
- Pent – typically classed as a modern design choose pent roofing usually for contemporary gardens.
- Reverse apex - with a reversed slope, this roofing style is architecturally appealing. The reverse apex enables alternative placement of doors and/or windows, which may be aesthetically appealing
What is meant by pressure treated shiplap sheds?
We realise that terms in our industry can sound a little jargonised. So, here we will break down what is meant by the phrase “pressure treated shiplap cladding”. Remember, whichever of the Beckwood Sheds you buy will be pressure treated and feature shiplap cladding:
Pressure treated
This describes how the wood has been treated. Typically, a shed could be delivered untreated, dip treated, or pressure treated. All Beckwood sheds are pressure treated, which is the best of the three!
Every piece of wood in a Beckwood shed will have been deep treated with wood preservative under both intense pressure and heat. This means that every fibre of the wood is protected for the long term. This contrasts with dip treated sheds, which would require annual retreatment with a top-quality wood preservative – this is both costly and time-consuming.
You pay more upfront, but if you can afford the initial price, it is worth it. Accompanying your shed purchase, you will also receive a healthy twenty five year guarantee.
Shiplap cladding
This is a high-strength cladding technique where wooden boards are overlapped horizontally. The subsequent result is a weathertight seal that protects shiplap sheds from water ingress.
There is even more news though, the cladding is also of tongue and groove construction. Not all shiplap cladding is tongue and groove, but when you buy one of our Beckwood sheds you receive shiplap tongue and groove cladding! This means that the edges are also interlocking and seamlessly fit together. This once again adds extra strength and durability, which is why a twenty five year guarantee is offered.
Buying shiplap tongue and groove cladding in your shed means you will have a state-of-the-art purchase that is both “pleasing on the eye” as well as being weatherproof, durable, and built for years to come.
Can I order a Beckwood shed with both delivery and fitting services included?
Yes! When you buy a Forest Beckwood pressure-treated shed from Buy Fencing Direct, you can expect your shed to be rot and pest-resistant for up to twenty five years, which is the guarantee length. Purchase a Forest Garden Beckwood shed and add a suitable delivery date and installation preference at the product page. Be sure to carefully schedule a convenient delivery date, as rescheduling late could incur additional charges.
A professional shed fitting service is an optional extra that you can add to your purchase from the drop-down menu before checkout. Once you have chosen the best shed for your space and needs, the next step is to prepare the area for installation. The shed installation team will send you specific instructions well before the installation date, including detailed ground preparation instructions. Please be aware that the installation team do not clear or level the proposed site and will not install a concrete or slabbed shed base. Our team will not install plastic bases. Choose the shed, base and fitting options carefully to ensure your Forest Beckwood shed stands up to the test of time and your precise requirements.
