Double Door 6x3 Bike Storage Shed - Forest Large Apex Bike / Mower Store (1.9m x 0.8m)

What are the exact dimensions of the Forest Garden 6x3 bike store?

The overall dimensions are 1980mm wide x 810mm deep x 1520mm tall. The width at the base is 1860mm and the depth at the base is 778mm. The eaves height is 1276mm. The door opening is 760mm wide and 1252mm tall. These measurements make it a practical fit for most garden spaces while still offering a 2000-litre storage capacity.

Does the shed come with a floor?

Yes. The floor is made from 8mm OSB (Oriented Strand Board) and is mounted on pressure-treated bearers. The bearers lift the floor off the ground which helps prevent moisture from sitting underneath and keeps the contents dry. No separate base or additional flooring is needed.

Is the timber treated and does it need re-treating?

The timber is pressure-treated at the factory, which means the preservative is driven deep into the wood fibres. This gives it far better protection than surface-applied treatments. Because of this, no further treatment is required after purchase. The shed comes with a 15-year anti-rot warranty, which reflects the quality of the treatment applied.

Is the timber sustainably sourced?

Yes. All timber used in this shed is FSC®-certified, meaning it comes from forests that are managed to strict environmental and social standards. The Forest Stewardship Council certification is a recognised mark that the wood has been sourced responsibly. The shed is also manufactured in the UK.

Can the double doors be padlocked?

Yes. The doors feature a hasp and staple closure which is designed to accept a padlock. A padlock is not included with the shed so you will need to purchase one separately. The door hinges are also cleverly hidden to reduce the risk of tampering, adding an extra layer of security beyond the lock itself.

How difficult is it to assemble and what is included?

Forest Garden describe this shed as easy to assemble. All the necessary fixings are included in the pack along with a full set of assembly instructions. No specialist tools are required. It is worth having a second person to help during assembly, particularly when lifting the roof panels and positioning the door frame sections.

What can this shed realistically store?

With a 2000-litre capacity and a door opening of 760mm wide by 1252mm tall, this store is well suited to bikes, lawnmowers, garden tools, small garden furniture and outdoor equipment. The wide double doors make it straightforward to wheel in a bike or push in a mower without awkward manoeuvring. It is not designed for large ride-on mowers but handles standard push mowers and most adult bikes comfortably.

What is the roof made from and will it keep contents dry?

The roof is constructed from 8mm OSB board and is covered with green sand felt. The apex roof style allows rainwater to run off efficiently rather than pooling. The felt covering provides a weatherproof layer over the OSB. Combined with the pressure-treated timber and the raised OSB floor on bearers, the shed is designed to keep stored items dry in typical UK weather conditions.
