Build Your Own Spacious Shed for Sports Equipment, Tools, Hobbies, and More

Add versatility to your property with a 12×16 storage shed that is spacious enough to hold all your tools and machines. In this 192-square-feet floor shed, you can keep all garden tools, lawn care equipment, sporting equipment, outdoor furniture, and more. With proper organization, you will even have space to move inside the shed and dust tools and machines that have stayed in the shed for a long time.

The gable roof provides additional overhead space to hang small items or create loft storage, while the 7′ – 10 3/4″  tall walls provide plenty of vertical storage spaces. You can furnish the spacious interior with drawers and shelves to better organize your small items.

Gable vents have been installed to help regulate in-shed air conditions preventing moisture build-up, which ultimately keeps your tools from rusting.

Besides, you can convert this shed into a spacious gym space, add a pool table, or even set up a small office in one corner of the shed. With the ample floor space delivered by the shed, you have endless options to suit the interior to your needs.

Best of all, the shed is easy to build and comes with easy-to-follow instructions for even non-builders to install. It is made of wooden slides that can be painted to match your home’s exterior theme. Painting your shed not only makes a statement on your property but also helps protect the walls against weather elements, ensuring longevity.

A nice set of plans to give us an idea… A nice set of plans to give us an idea of what it costs to build on site vs buying a prefab structure, and the quality differences between them. This set of plans is "bomb proof" according to my local lumberyard guy. 2x6 joists on 12" centers, compared to 2x4s on 24" centers for the prefab models. A real foundation, not just some 4x4 skids. It looks like a major amount of work, but the result could be a really nice garden shed sturdy enough to house our commercial-grade chipper as well as the big mower.

The price for plans is way too high The price for plans is way too high, but the plans are fairly decent. You DO have to know a little something about construction and adjustments of measurements, but for the most part, not too bad.

The plans are missing a critical step The plans were missing a critical step, and my original message to Shedplans wasn't received. I received a message from them after posting my problem here, and they subsequently sent me the revised instructions. Very grateful for their follow-up. Now if lumber prices would just return to normal....
