We normally use our blog to sing the praises of swing sets, trampolines and basketball hoops.
You know, fun things.But today we’re going to talk about something a little more practical: a vinyl storage shed, and why you might want to install one in your backyard.
Here are eight reasons to buy your first vinyl shed, a few of which are actually a little bit fun.
1. Storage
This is the main and most obvious reason. If your garage and your attic are getting too cluttered, clear some items out and put them in your shed. And if you don’t have a garage or an attic, a shed will give you an extra level of storage.
2. A place for your hobbies... or your job
Are you a crafter? A woodworker? A painter? Your storage shed can be your new workspace. You’ll have a place to unwind and enjoy life, and maybe tackle that project you’ve always wanted to try.
Do you work from home? A vinyl shed can become your new home office with a few adjustments. You’ll rid yourself of distractions while still enjoying the convenience of a home office.
3. Added value
People who install vinyl storage sheds might be spending money in the short term, but they’re adding value to their home over time. If you decide to sell your home, potential buyers will see that added storage space as an asset.
4. Safety
If you have kids, you want them to keep away from power tools, lawn chemicals and other hazards, and a vinyl storage shed is the perfect way to lock up your sharp or otherwise dangerous equipment in one place. Having a shed also lets you protect your outdoor valuables from thieves, and gives you added peace of mind about your home security.
5. Organization
How often do you find yourself tearing your garage apart to find one small item? Your shed can put an end to that frustrating experience, by giving you a centralized spot to keep rakes, shovels and other outdoor tools you might otherwise have kept in the garage.
6. Protection from the elements
Don’t sacrifice your expensive outdoor equipment to rust and moisture. Vinyl storage sheds can keep your tools and other items in prime working condition, offering a safe, clean space to protect them from rain, cold and scorching sun.
And if you’re a gardener, your shed can offer a place to keep vulnerable plants during the winter. A shed with windows can double as a greenhouse, allowing your plants to grow all year long.
7. A space for your kids
There’s a good chance your kids will turn the shed into a clubhouse. While this can derail your storage plans, it’s also a fantastic way to give your kids a place where they can be loud and messy without running wild inside your home.
8. Outdoor entertaining
Planning a cookout or some other sort of summer get-together? Transform your shed into a bar, or a place to host your children’s next birthday party.
