Ascot Pent — Contemporary Garden Room with Aluminium Bi‑Fold Doors
A sleek, modern pent‑roof garden room with Bi-fold doors, designed to open your space right out into the garden.
The Ascot Pent is all about clean, contemporary styling and seamless indoor‑outdoor living. Its standout feature — a stunning aluminium bi‑fold door — transforms the entire front elevation, allowing the building to open wide and create a beautifully fluid connection with the garden. Whether used as a home office, gym, studio or entertainment space, it delivers a bright, airy environment that feels instantly uplifting.
Full‑length windows complete the look, available in uPVC or aluminium to suit your customer’s preferred aesthetic and performance needs. uPVC offers excellent thermal efficiency and low‑maintenance practicality, while aluminium provides a slim, architectural profile with exceptional durability and a premium, modern finish.

Premium Redwood Thermowood Construction
Breckland Garden Studios are made from Redwood Thermowood, and we also offer Thermowood Vertical Cladding upgrade to sheds, summerhouses, and workshops. Thermowood is strong, durable, and low maintenance, produced using a special kilning process using kilns run in a vacuum and at very high temperatures. This removes all sugars/resin from the timber. Thermowood is therefore completely rot resistant and will have no resin marks (knot bleed), making it ideal for painted finishes.
Breckland’s Garden Rooms and Offices cladding (walls) come already solvent treated. This will need to be retreated again approximately every 6 – 8 years. If painted finish selected – Check regularly for any chips or scratches and touch-up when needed, keep building clean and free from any debris, and repaint building every 6 – 8 years.
Redwood has a desired service life of 25 years + with suitable maintenance.
Colour varies depending on treatment applied.

Guarantee
Breckland Garden Buildings come with a 12-month guarantee against faulty parts and workmanship, and 10 years against wood rot, providing the building is treated & maintained on a regular basis from the time of supply.
Installation & Base Requirements
We offer installation on Breckland buildings (location dependent), giving you a stress‑free experience from start to finish.
To enable installation, your building must sit on a flat, level, firm base made from paving slabs or concrete. The base should:
- Match the size of the building (can be larger, but never smaller) – please note that bases larger than the building can cause rainwater to build up around, and under the floor of the building, which can lead to the timber rotting.
- Be completely flat & level to a spirit level standard, with no drainage slope
- Sit at least 2 inches above ground level to avoid ground water running underneath
** It is the customer’s responsibility to provide a suitable base for their building, with clear and safe access **
Clearance
We recommend 18″ clearance around the building for installation, airflow, and future maintenance. Breckland can work with as little as 8″ clearance as a minimum, but this must be stated on the order.
