The Palmako Leif (111018BUN) is a 16ft x 6ft heavy duty wooden shed with an attached bike shelter. It gives you two distinct storage areas: a 4.5m² enclosed security shed and an additional 2.9m² sheltered open space that works as a bike store or log store. The sheltered section can be positioned on either side of the shed to suit your garden layout.
Built from 16mm Nordic spruce tongue and groove cladding on a solid 32mm frame, this is seriously heavy duty construction. The floor and roof are both 16mm tongue and groove boards too. Foundation joists lift the floor off the ground to improve airflow and protect against rot. Wall elements come readymade for easier assembly.
The shed has double doors fitted with a hasp and staple lock. The windowless design adds extra security for bikes and tools. It arrives untreated so you will need to apply a quality anti-fungal treatment after assembly and every year after that. A fixings kit and instructions are included. Roof covering is not included but several options are available as upgrades.
Five-year manufacturer's parts warranty included. Free delivery to most UK addresses. Available in a choice of sizes. A solid all-in-one storage solution for gardens needing both secure storage and covered outdoor space.
No, the roof does not include a covering as standard. The structure features a pent-style 16mm tongue and groove roof, but you will need to add a roof covering separately. There are several options available as upgrades: Black Sand Felt Roof Underlay at £84.99, Premium SBS Torch On Roof Felt at £299.99 and a Flexible Rubber EPDM Roof Covering at £304.99. Roofing nails are also available at £13.99. For a long-lasting finish, the EPDM rubber membrane or SBS torch-on felt are the most durable choices. Note that SBS installation should only be carried out by someone with advanced DIY skills or a professional installer.
No, a padlock is not included. The double doors are fitted with a hasp and staple, which is designed to accept a padlock. You will need to purchase a padlock separately. A close-shackle padlock is generally recommended for outdoor sheds as it is harder to cut through. The windowless design of this shed also adds a further layer of security, making it harder for anyone to see what is stored inside.
The Palmako Leif is delivered untreated. Once assembled, you should apply a high-quality anti-fungal wood treatment to all surfaces. This needs to be repeated annually to protect the timber from rot and moisture damage. Keeping up with this maintenance is also a requirement to support the 5-year manufacturer's parts warranty. You can also apply paint if you want to change the colour or appearance of the shed.
The overall size is 16ft x 6ft (4.7m x 1.9m). The width at the base is 4600mm and the width including overhang is 4670mm. The depth at the base is 1700mm and the depth including overhang is 1870mm. The eaves height is 1880mm and the ridge height is 2280mm. The storage area inside measures 2730mm wide by 1870mm deep. The double doors are 1820mm high and 1020mm wide. The packaged weight is 448.16kg.
Yes. The 2.9m² sheltered space can be positioned on either side of the main shed, giving you flexibility depending on your garden layout and access requirements. This is useful if you need the shelter to face a particular direction or if one side of your garden is more accessible for bikes or log storage. The slatted design of the shelter section also makes it well suited for storing logs as it allows airflow to keep wood dry.
The Palmako Leif comes with readymade wall elements which simplifies the build process considerably compared to sheds where every board needs to be fixed individually. A fixings kit and full assembly instructions are included. The packaged weight is 448.16kg so you will need at least two people to handle the panels safely. If you are not confident with self-assembly, professional installation is available as an add-on service at the point of purchase.
This shed comes with a 5-year manufacturer's parts warranty. This covers defects in the manufactured components. To keep the warranty valid you must treat the timber with a high-quality anti-fungal treatment immediately after assembly and repeat this treatment every year. Failure to maintain the wood properly could affect your warranty claim. The warranty is a manufacturer's parts warranty, so it is worth checking with the supplier for the full terms and conditions before purchasing.
Yes, free delivery is available to most UK addresses. You can check specific delivery dates at the point of purchase. Finance is also available, with the option to spread the cost over 12 months interest free. The current price is £1,889.00 reduced from £1,999.00. There is also a promotional voucher code (5OFF4LIFE) available for an extra 5% off, applicable to Forest 4Life sheds check whether this applies at checkout. Call 0333 003 0518 for further details.
