This shed comes with two things that sheds like this rarely do: a lock for the double doors and a floor. It’s the latter that’s the real difference maker, a durable, raised plastic base that creates a barrier against rodents and insects, prevents moisture damage, and helps level out the base of the shed. The shed itself is made of galvanized steel with a reinforced eave structure that makes for a very strong shed. It can withstand winds up to 30 mph, hold a lot of snow, and resistant damage from UV rays, moisture, and bad weather year-round.
“This shed is absolutely perfect!” one shopper raved. “We just needed a shed to store some outdoor equipment but didn’t want a huge shed taking up a bunch of room.”
