16x10 Shed Most Common Uses

A shed of this size has plenty of room for whatever your intended use. Bar shed, she shed, ‘maker’ shed, backyard gym, art studio, office, you name it and you can get it done in a shed of this size. Plus, additional loft and shelf space give you even more room to store materials, tools or general items. If you do plan to use your shed for recreational activity or active building you might want to consider adding windows or skylights to optimize the work area.

A 16x10 wood shed is typically placed in the back corner of a property. But, depending on the landscaping and terrain of your yard you might choose a location that works best for your particular needs. Consider specific features like trees, hills, plant beds, etc. when determining the placement that’s best. The intended use for your shed can also be a factor when determining placement. For example, if you’re using the shed to make wooden hunting decoys that you sell online, it might be a good idea to place it close to a road for easy access of delivery vehicles to ship the thousands of orders.

Yard Considerations for 16x10 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.

16x10 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.
