NOTE:
Both 27" and 36" high windows are available for all shed kits. While the 27" window is generally well-proportioned for a 6'-4" wall and the 36" window complements an 8'-1" wall, these recommendations reflect Best Barns’ design opinion. The final selection should be based on the customer’s personal preference and desired aesthetic.
