Getting the most out of a Ranch style sheds or garage
This building style is ideal for storing vehicles, motorcycles, snowmobiles, boats, and more. Plus, it makes a great workshop, playhouse, dog house, or chicken coop.
Here are a few other use ideas.
- Garden supplies - You can easily store seeds, fertilizer, tools, pots, hoses, and anything else you may need for your garden. Storing these items in the backyard is convenient. Plus it allows you to keep the inside of your house clean, and the outside of your house beautiful. Check out these garden shed storage tips.
- Tools and workshop - Our Ranch storage buildings provides plenty of room for power tools, bulky cords, and larger equipment like saws, workbenches, and riding mowers. Everything can be organized, stored, and easily accessible. Create your own backyard wood working shop.
- Sports equipment - Avoid tripping over sports equipment by storing it all in the backyard shed—hockey and lacrosse sticks, basketballs and soccer balls, cleats and helmets. You don’t need a huge storage shed for this option just something that will keep the clutter (and smell) out of your house.
- Fishing and hunting gear - House all of your hunting and fishing gear in one place without worrying about who will get into it. There is plenty of storage space in our Ranch style sheds; the more creative you are, the more you can squeeze into it.
- Home office - Creating a home office means that you don’t have to take over a spare bedroom, clutter the kitchen table, or kick the car out of the garage. Another great benefit is that outdoor office space in a shed could be tax deductible! Convert your shed into a convenient home office!
