Detailed Summary
Medium size gable sheds fit perfectly in yards that have .25 to .5 acre of land. Sheds with around 100 square feet will comfortably fit shovels, rakes, a wheelbarrow, and riding lawn mower. Add a little shelving in an area and you can expand your storage capabilities exponentially.

Gable sheds are great for climates that receive a large amount of rain fall or snow. In the winter, the 6/12 pitch keeps the snow from accumulating and weighing down the building. In the spring and summer, the steep angle will prevent moisture from collecting and causing leaks.
