Let’s think of it this way: it’s a beautiful summer day, and a light breeze rustles through the trees in your backyard. You step outside the house to unwind in the scenic beauty, but your excitement shatters into a million pieces. Instead of a picture-perfect paradise, you find disorganized chaos with gardening tools lying around, equipment in the corner, and all the unnecessary items spread around most haphazardly.
So, what becomes a necessity in all this clutter? – An outdoor storage shed that appears beautiful and functional to maximize your outdoor space.
Read below as Backyard Escape Studios offers smaller, more straightforward solutions to your vast, hectic backyard problems. Get ready to uncover some jaw-dropping ways to utilize most of your outdoor storage shed in Canada.
Top 10 Outdoor Storage Shed Solutions – Best Tips
1. Vertical Space is a Must
Our outdoor storage sheds typically have restricted floor space; therefore, it is best to utilize the vertical area to maximize the space. Be an organizing pro: Add more miniature pieces like pots, hand tools, and gloves by installing racks fixed on the wall. This will assist in maximizing the outdoor storage shed space and ensure that everything is within your reach.
2. Categorization for Ease
This is probably the first time anyone has told you this, but labeling all containers and boxes can help you readily find what’s inside. You won’t have to open ten boxes for that one thing. Sort things out, place them in jars, and name-label them with what’s inside.
3. Make Use of Doors
Whether your shed has one or two doors, make use of them! Behind the doors, find a perfect spot to put short pocket shelves or handles that can help keep small items safe and accessible. Put here the tiny things you need the most.
4. Small Jars for Small Things
You and I, for years, have stashed packets of screws, bolts, nails, and other fasteners in various plastic bins in the garage. And did we ever find these things when we needed them? Very seldom. Thanks to outdoor garden storage sheds, over time, we gained wisdom and began to arrange these objects on shelves in small containers inside the sheds. Now, we never have to dig around in the dark for the screws and nails required once in a while.
5. Make Use of the Loft Area
Let’s remember the space above your head. Consider installing a shelf near the rafters in your outdoor storage shed if it has sufficient height and space above head level. Can you believe this? The space above your head may be at least half of the shed- making room for tons of objects that are used less likely. The conscious decision is to add suspended ladders to access the items in the loft without compromising the appeal of your shed’s interior.
6. Construct Some Shelves
After you have finished designing your outdoor shed for storage, the best thing you can do is use a portion of the room to install shelving of varying heights. This will provide you with the flexibility to store all your items, rather than sitting on the floor looking at all the piles of mess to find that one jar of screws. Moreover, reserve a full-height space for more oversized items to mount your extensive tools against a wall.
7. Hang All the Long Tools
More functional space can be achieved in the outdoor storage shed by lifting objects off the floor and hanging them on the walls. Hanging them at eye level makes them much easier to find and keeps you safe, as these tools are prone to falling over you. Fasten the brackets onto the wall, hang your tools, and keep them close at hand.
8. Add Storage Benches
Stop worrying if you have a tiny backyard or a limited outside space for an outdoor storage shed because outdoor sheds whether small or big- never disappoint. Invest in mini cabinets and storage benches tucked away into tiny corners or against walls for a small shed. Tired of working? Sit on a storage bench while enjoying space-saving to the fullest. These space-saving alternatives are ideal for making your outdoor shed a place worthwhile.
9. Invest in Tool Organizers
Utilize specialized organizers and holders to keep your gardening implements neatly organized and accessible inside the outdoor storage shed. Various choices are available in the market to keep your gardening stuff organized and easy to reach. You will no longer have to dig through a messy heap of tools to locate the required item. Some options are fixed racks on the wall, freestanding tool towers, and storage totes!
Our favorite is a storage tote in different sizes, ranging from small to extra large. You can easily mark the totes with items placed inside- helping in easy retrieval of your household products at a later time. Totes can be stored neatly inside an outdoor shed against the walls.
10. Declutter Regularly
This one holds excellent importance! Please regularly inspect the objects in your outdoor shed and remove anything you no longer need or use. Kill your attachment with old items and discard the broken equipment, tools, and expired materials. In addition to making it easier to find the necessary products, decluttering will create additional space!
