Outdoor Storage for a Tidy Backyard

A backyard shed gives garden tools, lawn equipment, bicycles, and seasonal gear a place of their own. Use shelves for small supplies, leave floor space for bulky equipment, and keep frequently used items near the door. An organized outdoor storage shed can free up room in your home while making everyday use more convenient.

Construction Details

Our outdoor storage sheds use materials sourced through Old Hickory Buildings of Canada. Wood framing, engineered siding, and the built-in floor form a practical structure for backyard storage. Confirm the specifications for your selected size, including any floor upgrades needed for heavier equipment.

Shed Framing:  Engineered 2×4 studs are spaced every 16″ on centre.  We double the wall studs wherever our siding has a seam so that both sections of siding will have a full stud width to be fastened to.  Exterior walls are sheeted with Premium LP Smart Panel Siding, then painted with high quality paint designed especially for the outdoor shed industry.
Shed Roofing:  Trusses are spaced every 24″.  The roof  is then sheeted with OSB roof sheeting and then sheeted with 30-year 29 gauge high quality metal roofing or residential grade architectural shingles.

Shed Flooring:  4×6 pressure through treated skids that are notched at 16″ on centre to ensure consistent floor joist spacing. Recessing and toenailing the joists in the notches lock them in place ensuring the shed can be loaded, unloaded, and moved repeatedly without any warping of the floor system.

We use  2×4 pressure treated floor joists {2×6 on 14′ wide and over}.  The floor is then sheeted with 5/8″ {may upgrade to 3/4″} tongue and groove, engineered panels, which provide exceptional strength and stiffness for a flatter, more stable floor.  Advanced resins are moisture resistant.

Storage Sheds FAQ'S

What is a Storage Shed?

What is a Storage Shed?

A storage shed is a separate building that provides room for belongings outside the home. Our prebuilt storage sheds are wood-framed buildings with a roof, siding, doors, and a built-in floor. They can provide outdoor storage for tools, garden supplies, bikes, patio furniture, and seasonal items.

How Much Storage Space Do You Need?

List what you want to store and measure the largest items first. Allow for shelving, open doors, and a clear walkway. An 8 ft. by 10 ft. footprint provides 80 square feet of exterior area, while larger storage sheds offer more layout choices. Interior storage capacity is smaller than the exterior footprint and depends on your arrangement.

Before choosing the perfect shed for your yard, mark out the proposed size and check the route to it. Make sure there is enough space to open the doors and move equipment in and out comfortably.

What are Some Examples of Storage Sheds?

What are some examples of these Sheds?

Storage sheds can serve several purposes. Choose the layout around what you use most often, then select the doors, windows, and storage accessories that support that routine.

Garden Sheds

Garden sheds keep gardening tools, pots, and planting supplies together. A workbench can provide a place to organize supplies, while shelves keep smaller items off the floor. Plan window placement around both daylight and wall storage.

Lawn Equipment and Tool Storage

An outdoor storage shed can give a mower, trimmer, and hand tools their own space. Measure the equipment before selecting the door opening. Double doors are useful when you need wider access, but the clear opening should be confirmed for your exact shed.

Bike Storage and Outdoor Gear

Plan bike storage so bicycles can be moved without unloading the whole shed. Leave a clear path from the doors and consider shelves for helmets, camping supplies, and other outdoor gear.

Patio Furniture and Seasonal Storage

Store patio cushions, outdoor toys, and seasonal decorations together in labelled containers. Measure bulky patio furniture before selecting the shed size. Keep everyday items accessible and place less-used seasonal gear farther back.

Workshop and Hobby Storage

A workbench, shelving, and windows can make a shed useful for organizing hobby supplies. Tell us if you plan electrical service, heating, or another use beyond storage so those requirements can be considered separately.

What is the most Durable Type of Shed Material?

What is the most Durable Type of Shed?

Durability depends on the complete shed: framing, siding, roof, floor, base, and maintenance. Compare those details when shopping for storage sheds rather than judging by material alone. Our sheds use wood framing and the siding and roofing options listed above.

Comparing Wood, Metal, and Resin Sheds

Metal sheds and resin sheds are other categories you may encounter while shopping. Compare their usable dimensions, door openings, floor arrangements, assembly requirements, and model-specific weather ratings with a prebuilt wooden shed. Product details vary, so check what is included in each price.

Care for Long-Lasting Performance

Follow the manufacturer’s care instructions for siding, roofing, paint, and hardware. Inspect the building periodically and keep water draining away from its base. Ask about maintenance and warranty conditions; a long limited warranty does not make a shed maintenance-free.

For reliable storage in tough weather, confirm the engineering information for your selected shed and location. Ask about ventilation and how to protect moisture-sensitive belongings. Basic outdoor storage is not the same as a climate-controlled room.

Are there Rules about Backyard Sheds?

Are there Rules about Backyard Sheds?

Before buying a backyard shed, contact your municipality with the proposed dimensions, site location, and intended use. Ask which development or building permits apply and confirm setbacks, height limits, site coverage, foundation requirements, and any documents they need.

Requirements depend on the property and project. Do not assume a shed is exempt because it is portable or delivered prebuilt. Check utility locations, easements, and any other restrictions before finalizing placement. Our team can discuss the building details available for your order.

Does a Storage Shed need a Slab?

Does a Storage Shed need a Slab?

A concrete slab is not the only possible base, but every storage shed needs appropriate, level support. The right preparation depends on the ground, drainage, building size, and intended load. Discuss your proposed gravel pad, concrete base, or other support with our team before work begins.

Prepare for Shed Delivery

Review our delivery and set-up information. Confirm gate width, overhead clearance, turns, slopes, and access to the final placement area. A shed may fit in the backyard while the delivery route still needs attention.

Confirm Your Storage Shed Price

Ask for a quote covering the selected size, doors, windows, roof, siding, floor upgrades, and delivery. Confirm which site preparation or additional work is your responsibility. Comparing complete quotes makes it easier to understand the value of different storage sheds.

Choose Stock or a Custom Build

Ask our sales team about current stock if you need a shed sooner. For a custom shed, confirm the design and expected delivery schedule before placing your order. Availability and timing depend on the building you choose.

Plan an Organized Interior

Group similar items together, label storage bins, and plan shelves around the available wall space. Keep heavy items low and maintain a clear walkway. Ask about suitable shelving, lofts, workbenches, door hardware, and lockable access options for your chosen building.
