Choosing the Right Shed Accessories for Your Needs

You’ve selected the perfect size and style for your new Action Building. Now it’s time to think about the interior. The right accessories can transform your shed from a simple storage box into a highly efficient and organized space tailored to your exact needs. Choosing a few key add-ons from the start ensures your building is ready to use and perfectly functional from day one.

Let's explore some of the most popular accessories and how they can maximize the potential of your new shed.

Maximize Your Space with Smart Storage Solutions

The key to a functional shed is getting items off the floor. This not only creates more usable space but also protects your belongings and makes them easier to find.

  • Lofts: One of the most effective ways to increase storage capacity is by adding a loft. Included in our Lofted Barn series or as an option in other models, lofts are perfect for stashing seasonal items like holiday decorations or bulky, lightweight gear you don't need to access daily. They effectively double your storage footprint without taking up any floor space.
  • Shelving: Heavy-duty shelving is essential for organizing tools, paint cans, gardening supplies, and storage totes. When designing your shed with Action Buildings, you can specify where you want built-in, sturdy shelves installed, creating a dedicated home for your items and keeping your workspace clear.
  • Workbenches: If your shed will serve as a workshop, a built-in workbench is a must-have. We can install a durable, waist-high bench perfect for DIY projects, tool maintenance, or as a potting station for your gardening hobbies. This provides a dedicated, stable surface for all your tasks.

Enhance Accessibility and Security

How you get into and out of your shed is just as important as what you store inside. The right doors and access accessories make using your building safe and convenient.

  • Ramps: If you plan to store heavy, wheeled equipment like a riding lawnmower, ATV, or motorcycle, a sturdy ramp is non-negotiable. Our steel-framed ramps are built for durability and provide a safe, gradual incline, making it easy to move heavy items in and out without straining your back or damaging your equipment.
  • Roll-Up Doors: For maximum accessibility, a roll-up garage door is an excellent upgrade. It provides a wide opening perfect for moving large equipment or working on projects that need ventilation and easy access. They are a popular choice for workshops and vehicle storage.
  • Upgraded Entry Doors: While our standard doors are secure, you might consider upgrading to a 9-lite or solid residential-style door for a more finished look or for added security and natural light.

Add Functionality and Comfort

A few final touches can elevate your shed from a storage space to a comfortable and practical extension of your home.

  • Windows: Natural light can make a huge difference, especially if you plan to spend time working inside. Adding one or more windows makes the space feel larger, improves visibility, and provides ventilation.
  • Hooks and Hangers: Simple but incredibly effective, hooks are perfect for hanging long-handled tools like rakes and shovels, keeping them organized and off the floor. Action Buildings can be easily fitted with various hanging systems on the interior steel frame.
