How to add a sideway shed?

dgialanze

Hi There. 

I'm looking to put a side shed in my house. I have the measurements and a photo of the area I would like to install it below. I don't require anything to big. 

What tools would i require and do you have any recommendations on what sheds i should look at?

Thank you!

Hi @dgialanze,

Thank you for your question about installing a shed at the side of your property.

Unfortunately, due to the width of the path, your options in terms of a shed kit are somewhat limited.

The following sheds will fit in your space, but you will only have around 40cm of space to walk past the shed without stepping into the garden bed.
 

• Absco Sheds 3.0 x 0.78 x 1.95m Surfmist Ezislider Double Sliding Door Garden Shed
   
• Absco Sheds 1.52 x 0.78 x 1.95m Zinc Single Door Garden Shed With Anchors
   
• Absco Sheds 2.26 x 0.78 x 1.31m Monument Bike Shed
   
• Keter 1.32 x 0.72 x 1.14m Black Store Prime Plastic Garden Shed
   
• Lifetime 1.42 x 0.73m Vertical Plastic Storage Shed.
   

The required tools will vary from shed to shed and the manual of your specific shed will tell you what is required. For example, the Absco Ezislider Double Sliding Door Garden Shed requires the following tools which are fairly common - 

• Hammer Drill
   
• Aviation Snips
   
• Rivet Gun
   
• Step Ladder
   
• Shifter
   
• Some drill and driver bits
   
• Masonry bits.

If you don't have the necessary tools and don't want to purchase them, you might like to check out our Shed Assembly service which can be arranged through your local store's Special Orders desk. Unfortunately, not all sheds can be assembled as part of this service, so you would have to confirm with your local store when you have selected a shed.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
