If the last time that you opened your garage door was weeks ago, and things fell on you when you did, it's a sure sign that you need a garden shed! A shed can add extra storage space for your outdoor items, as well as serving many other uses.

  1. Why do you want a garden shed?Garden sheds can store everything from outdoor equipment to gardening supplies to power tools. They can also serve as a playhouse for your kids, a potting area, or an area in which to practice your hobbies. If you just want a storage space, a simple, rectangular shed, with or without windows, will fulfill your needs. On the other hand, if the space is to be a playhouse, you'll likely want it to be a bit more decorative, perhaps even mirroring the style of your main house. A potting shed or hobby area will need to have some windows, to make the space pleasant to work in.

  2. How much space do you need? If you plan to store your outdoor equipment, such as lawnmowers and snowblowers, in your shed, measure the equipment so that you'll be sure to buy a shed which is large enough. You may want to make it a little bigger than you think you'll need. You don't want to trade your lawnmower in for a slightly bigger model and find out you'll need a new shed, too! If your shed is to be a multi-purpose area - perhaps with an area for your tools, but also a play area for your kids - be sure the two areas are completely separated. It will prevent the items in the storage area from spilling over into the rest of the shed, and it will keep your kids away from things which could be dangerous. Another consideration is the height of the roof. If you will be using the shed to work in, you'll want a higher ceiling than if you are just using it for storage. Some larger storage sheds can even be fitted with lofts, which can be very useful to get more storage area within the same footprint.
