Is the Cedarshed 10x10 Rancher Large Shed Kit a Good Fit for Your Backyard Storage?
A square shed works well when you want shelves around the walls and open floor space in the center. The Cedarshed 10x10 Rancher Large Shed Kit gives you 100 square feet for a mower, bicycles, a wheelbarrow, garden tools, bins, patio cushions, and seasonal supplies in a balanced layout that is easy to organize. The 10-foot width leaves room to move around equipment and reach storage on either side, while Western Red Cedar siding, 60-inch-wide double doors, an included plywood floor, a fixed window, and panelized wall sections make this a practical DIY shed with a finished backyard look.
Benefits
-
Make Better Use of a Square Interior: The 10-by-10-foot layout gives you enough wall space for shelves and hooks while leaving the center open for a mower, wheelbarrow, or bicycles. This makes it easier to organize equipment without creating a narrow aisle.
-
Free Up More Room in the Garage: Give lawn equipment and seasonal storage a dedicated place outside so the garage feels less crowded and easier to use.
-
Move Bulky Equipment In and Out More Easily: The 60-inch-wide double doors provide a clear opening, so you do not have to squeeze larger items through a narrow doorway.
-
Spend Less Time Building from Individual Pieces: Prebuilt wall panels require no cutting during standard assembly. Included hardware, building plans, cedar floor joists, and plywood floor panels reduce the materials and construction steps you need to handle separately.
-
Add Natural Light and a Finished Cedar Look: The fixed window brightens the interior when you are finding tools or checking bins. Western Red Cedar siding naturally resists rot, decay, and insects, while the shutters and window box add finished exterior detail.

Floor and Foundation Planning
The Rancher kit includes pre-cut cedar floor joists and 5/8 in plywood floor panels. Before assembly, prepare a flat, level site that supports the full floor system and provides drainage away from the shed.
Cedarshed recommends patio stones, pressure-treated 4x4 beams over a prepared base, or a concrete slab. Foundation requirements can vary by location, so check local building and permit requirements before preparing the site.
Delivery and Unloading
The current estimated lead time is about 2 weeks for production plus approximately 1 week for delivery. Delivery time depends on the distance from British Columbia, Canada, to your location.
The freight carrier will call to arrange a delivery window after the shipment reaches the local terminal. Delivery is made to the property line or driveway when the carrier can reach the location safely.
Most shipments can be lowered from the truck with a liftgate. If liftgate service is not available for your delivery, two people can usually unload the panels by hand in about 15 to 30 minutes after removing the paper wrap and plastic straps. Let Homestead Supplier know before ordering if the delivery address has narrow roads, limited truck access, steep grades, or another access concern.
