Hardware Shed

A saltbox design without the typical saltbox feel that you will not find at a conventional shed store. The different wall heights help add to the curious shape and the arched door feels like it opens right up to a fantasy world. Clients have modified this design to use as an outdoor bathroom/outhouse complete with a Nature’s Head composting toilet, as a chicken coop after adding nesting boxes and a 12”x12” chicken door, and as a playhouse. Not to mention, as a picturesque garden and storage shed! Request one or both sides of the roofing metal be replaced with a translucent fiberglass panel so the cottage can even be used as a seedling starter.

Upgrade to cedar shake roofing to give it the ultimate rustic appeal. Add another window or local artisan hand-blown glass roundel for additional natural light. Or consider purchasing a composting toilet and setting it out in your back pasture as a more readily accessible outhouse while working far from the main house.

Perhaps you are just looking to store smelly sports gear. This is an ideal timber frame shed to keep those hockey pads safe but far away from smelling up the house.

Offered as frame only kits, complete pre-cut kits, 3- or 4-Season kits, or step-by-step plans nationwide, our outdoor post and beam storage, garden, and cottage solutions give you the extra room you need. If you live within our Northeast delivery area, consider purchasing a design fully assembled and delivered to your prepared site. Keep your lawn furniture, kids’ toys, and bicycles within easy reach in summer, yet safely tucked away during the winter. Maintain a stockpile of household supplies or a stash of non-perishable foods to cut down on shopping trips or create the perfectly quiet nook to read while enjoying a breeze through the windows.
