Equipment Shed Plans
Equipment Shed DIY Building Plans
Our Equipment Shed Building Plans include all the instructions needed to guide you through your project from start to finish. The list of materials within includes all the items required to complete the standard build and matching size, plus a list of suggested tools for assembly. The building directions have color-coded diagrams each step of the way that match the incorporated cut list. All instructions are concise and in order—Beginning with the multiple site prep options, then to the erecting of the 6×6 Hemlock post & beam framing and arranging of the Eastern White Pine siding components and finishing off with the installation of the 29-gauge galvanized metal roofing sheets. These Plans are offered in the same three sizes we produce our Equipment Shed Pre-Cut Kits in: 20×36, 24×36, & 24×48.
The Equipment Shed is the largest model we here at Jamaica Cottage Shop produce, so it would be wise to purchase the Plans prior to ordering the whole Pre-Cut Kit, in case any permitting may be required by your municipality. If you place an order for the matching Kit later, we will happily reimburse you for the previously purchased set of Plans. We also have Tech Support available from Monday to Saturday 9am to 3pm eastern standard time, who can assist you directly should you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding the contents of the Plans. Each purchase of our Plans will come with digital access to view the online copy through your JCS account, as well as a hardcopy that we will mail out to you via USPS. An order can be placed through our website by adding your preferred size to your shopping cart, or you can give us a ring and place your order with a JCS rep over the phone.
