What's on the Inside

Pocket Doors Included!
This storage shed is equipped with standard wood pocket doors, making it an excellent choice if traditional swing-out doors would be inconvenient for your space. Pocket doors slide smoothly, staying protected from the elements when closed and neatly tucked away when open. The doors are built with pre-primed wood siding mounted on a durable 2x4 frame, ensuring exceptional strength and stability. For added style, the exterior features unfinished white pine trim over the siding. Each door glides effortlessly along a heavy-duty aluminum track, and both a galvanized door sill and latch for secure locking are included. The doors arrive pre-assembled and ready for installation, making setup quick and easy.

Door opening clearance: 5'-5" W x 6'-6" H

OPTIONAL FLOOR
Upgrade your Best Barns Crafter's Connection shed kit with the FortressFloor, a commercial-grade wood flooring system designed to enhance both durability and appearance. This optional floor kit provides a solid, level foundation while raising your building off the ground to protect against moisture and rot. Engineered for heavy-duty use, the kit includes 4x4 pressure-treated runners, 2x4 treated floor joists spaced 16" on center, 3/4" thick 4x8 plywood sheets, and all necessary hardware. Built with premium treated lumber, the FortressFloor is made to withstand demanding loads and harsh climates. Please note that materials are not pre-cut- simple straight cuts are required during assembly. The floor kit ships separately from your building and is delivered by a local lumber dealer, who will contact you to arrange a delivery time. Someone must be present to receive and sign for the delivery. This flooring upgrade is a smart, long-lasting investment in the stability and function of your new structure.
