12x10 Wood Shed

Our 12 x 10 shed plans offer just the right amount of space without taking away from your yard. Evaluate your backyard and make sure you calculate enough room around the shed – we recommend at minimum of three feet around all sides of the shed for ease of passage and maybe some gardening or decorations. Another thing to think about is your landscaping. Position your shed in an area with enough space and in an area that compliments the rest of your yard.

Yard Considerations for 12x10 Wood Sheds

Location

Consider that in addition to the dimensions of the shed, you’ll need to add a minimum of three feet of space to all sides for ease of passage.

Light

With a shed this long you may want to consider adding additional windows or skylights so you have the right amount of natural light to access stored items or work inside the shed.

Storage

As a shed that has more depth than width, consider the items you’d like to store within the floor space. Leave room between items for easy passage throughout the shed, making sure to leave room to access the very back.

12x10 Shed Features

Wood sheds offer customizability. Wooden materials allow the owner to hang fixtures, shelves, hooks, and boards to organize tools from art supplies to saws and drills. That’s the great thing about 10x8 wood sheds. They can apply to any hobby, any use. If it’s finished serving its purpose as a workshop and needs to morph into a gym or a meditation room, the change is possible, even simple.

If you plan to use your shed for projects, or for ease of finding stored items, you may want to consider additional windows or skylights to let in more natural light. During the shopping and installing process, think of ways to add your style to the shed, whether that be window placement, curtains, light fixtures, hanging plants, or something else entirely. There’s enough space to create something that compliments the style you’ve worked hard to develop in your home.
