Custom Storage Sheds Denver Colorado: Things To Consider
Size
The first thing to consider when choosing a new shed is the size of the building you need. You’ll want to look at how much space you have to build your shed, and if a larger or smaller structure will be the best option. Our team can go over all of the sheds with you, narrowing down the best one based on the size you need. Perhaps you’re looking for a large shed where you can keep every tool you own, along with your lawnmower, snowblower, and other house and yard equipment. It’s important to have the storage you need so the shed doesn’t feel cramped or crowded whenever you use it.
At Better Built Barns, we carry a variety of shed sizes, making it easy to pinpoint the one that fits your needs. If you’re planning on adding a backyard shed for gardening and landscaping, a smaller building should work nicely. If you plan on building a full workshop where you can work on house and yard projects, then a larger structure will be needed. No matter your choice, our expert team can have your shed up and ready to use in no time!
Layout/Floor Plan
You should also look at what types of layout or floor plan you want your shed to have, along with any features you will need. If you think it might be useful to have a workbench inside your shed, or if you’re looking for shelving to store bulky items like gardening equipment and pots, then make sure this is included in your building plans. Each of our sheds comes with a unique floor plan, along with features you can add, including shelving, storage lofts, and more. You can configure the layout however you want, creating a shed that works best for you.
If your shed is going to be both a workspace and storage space, you’ll want to be sure you have plenty of room to move around the shed, instead of feeling like you can barely open the door without things falling over. With the right shed layout, you can have a comfortable workspace, as well as plenty of storage for yard and gardening supplies, or whatever you need to store in the shed. We’ll gladly answer any questions you have about shed layout and floor plans, based on what type of shed you’re hoping to build on your Colorado property.
Location
There are likely plenty of great spots to put your new shed, but it’s important to decide on the prime location for your new building. Do you want the shed near your backyard fence? Should the shed be closer to the house? You’ll want to consider if there are any trees in the spot where you want to build your shed, in case the spot needs to be cleared before construction can begin. Trees can also provide a good amount of shade for your shed, which can be nice during those hot July days in Colorado. However, trees can also pose a risk to your shed, because if a tree falls over, you could be left with a demolished shed that needs to be rebuilt.
If you plan on using your shed year-round, you’ll likely want it to be closer to the house, so you don’t have to trek through the snow to get to it during the winter months. If the shed will be used mainly for storage, and you don’t plan on accessing it during the colder times of the year, then a more remote location on your property can be ideal. No matter where you place it, our team will make sure your shed is built properly on site!
Purpose
The type of shed you choose will also depend on what kind of activities you will be doing in the building. For example, if you are going to use your shed for gardening and storing items such as hoses, buckets, and rakes, then a garden shed would be appropriate. If you are looking for a garage, then a carport shed would be a perfect fit. If you have a particular hobby, such as yoga or painting, then you might need a different type of custom shed, such as our Heritage or Courtyard options.
It’s important to remember that no matter what type of shed you choose from our inventory, you can use it for whatever purpose you need. The shed may start out as a garden or storage shed, but over the years, it might evolve into a she shed or man cave where you can get out of the house without having to leave your property. The shed might become a playspace for the kids, where they keep all their favorite toys or have sleepovers with friends. The possibilities are endless, and we’d love to help you find the ideal shed for your Colorado home.
