16x24 Wood Sheds

To determine the right size of your shed, you need to have a clear idea about its intended purpose. Will it be for storage or active use? Or, both? Another important factor is what size and shape will best fit the specific features and size of your back yard. For example, how large is the yard, how many trees are on the property or how hilly is the property? Sometimes, it’s not just about the number of acres of your property – it’s how much level ground is on the property because if the ground is not level or close to level you may require a more complicated foundation or site preparation before shed installation can occur.

16x24 Shed Most Common Uses

16x24 sheds give you plenty of width and depth to work with. 384 sq. ft. of space gives you all the room you need for the things you love to do. Or, it provides an abundance of room for vehicle storage, recreation or active workshop use. With a depth of 24 feet a shed of this size can be ideal for storing longer large items like canoes, kayaks, ladders or even sailboats. If you have a boat that needs winter storage, this is a good size to consider. You could easily park 6 average sized ATVs inside and still have room to walk between them and plenty of room in the back for all of your tools and a workbench. This is a great size for a large ‘maker’ shed because there is so much room to store raw materials, build, then store finished product. Many people have used sheds of this size to start a business right in their back yard. On the east coast, where craftsmen continue to build boats by hand, a shed of this size can be ideal for that application.

Yard Considerations for 16x24 Wood Sheds

Location

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

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

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.

16x24 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.
