DIY Plan for building a small shed of 7 m². The shed is a standalone accessory building with straight lines and a simple shed roof that fits well into most garden environments. It is designed to accommodate what often lacks space in the home – bicycles, garden tools, outdoor items, and other things that need a dry and secure space.
The construction is based on a wooden frame that provides stability to the building and makes it easy to erect without special tools. The walls are clad externally with paneling, and the roof is provided with a covering surface that protects against the elements. The foundation is preferably laid as a pier foundation or a sill course, which is included in the DIY Plan’s instructions. The building project is well thought out so that a DIYer can manage it without prior experience in erecting a frame.
Accessory buildings of this size usually do not require a building permit if they are placed at least 4.5 meters from the property line, but it is always wise to check what applies to your property and municipality before you get started.
The difficulty level is moderate, and the building project is estimated to take a couple of weekends to complete, depending on prior knowledge and how many people are helping. The PDF you download contains a complete shopping list, cutting and sawing instructions with drawings, as well as a step-by-step assembly guide that follows the entire process from foundation to finished roof. The digital file provides you with all the materials needed to carry out the building project in a structured and efficient manner.
Here you can download the facade and floor plan for the shed.
