10x16 Wood Shed

Having a dedicated space for the things you love to do is ideal. Having room to work and a way to keep things organized and out of the way really makes your shed functional. Creating a custom space in your backyard is a great compliment to your lifestyle. You can spread out, keep all or your supplies in one place and disappear to the backyard whenever inspiration strikes.

Yard Considerations for 10x16 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.

10x16 Shed Features

A very important thing to consider is where you will place your shed in your yard. You want to not only make certain there is enough room for the shed, but we recommend a minimum of 3 feet around all sides of the shed. You will also want to consider other things in the yard like landscaping, play structures or swimming pools. Make certain you don’t crowd these features and you should also think of the visual appeal of how these elements work together. With a shed this deep you may want to consider additional windows or skylights to bring in more natural light.
