Wooden Garden Sheds

Should A Wooden Shed Be Off The Ground?

Wooden sheds should be raised off the ground to provide plenty of ventilation. Wood is a great, sturdy material for garden sheds, but if the shed is built on grass or ground that can become damp or wet, the wood will eventually become susceptible to rot. 

To help prevent this, you should aim to raise your wooden shed off the ground – there’s no set height that it should be, so long as air can pass through to keep the floor of the shed as dry as possible.

What Can Be Stored In A Wooden Garden Shed?

As with most garden sheds, a huge variety of items can be stored in a wooden garden shed. You should be careful not to store any items that can become damaged by extreme cold or heat, or that may deteriorate if exposed to humid or damp conditions, unless they’re properly protected.

Are Wooden Garden Sheds Secure?

Garden sheds are typically as secure as you make them. Securing a wooden garden shed should come down to the locks you use and the way you choose to store the items inside rather than the construction material.
