Space abounds in 12x20 wood sheds. With 240 square feet, the things you can do are almost limitless: large item storage, recreation, active use, and more. Long items that typically don't fit a lot of shed will fit in this one. For example, canoes, kayaks, long ladders, etc.

Start a small business right in your backyard with a 12x20 shed. Collect and re-build classic motorcycles. Build custom surfboards or sailboats. Set up several large machine tools like a table saw, band saw, or drill press to make a 12x20 highly functional workshop.

12x20 Shed Options to Consider

Clearly, 12x20 wood sheds are best for large properties. When you consider the size of the shed, plus an additional three feet on all sides for ease of movement, the footprint is substantial. But if you have a large yard, it’s not an issue.

Some things to consider with a shed of this length are where to place it in your yard, and lighting. For placement, the back of a property is typically a good location as that provides ease of access to the door, and this location is less disruptive to the overall property flow. For lighting, a shed of this length can get somewhat dark toward the back. You may want to add windows or skylights to lighten up the interior, making it easy to find what you’re looking for and fully use the space.

Yard Considerations for 12x20 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.

12x20 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 10x10 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.

With your new shed, add windows and skylights to match your expectations, another simple feat with wood sheds. Picture the ultimate shed in your mind and make it a reality with Heartland Sheds.
