5,000+ sheds built • 536 five-star reviews • Serving Utah, Idaho, Nebraska & Iowa
Riding mowers don’t belong next to your car. Chainsaws, pressure washers, and extension ladders crammed into a garage corner aren’t organized. They’re a hazard. And that rusting wheelbarrow sitting outside because there’s no room inside? It’s losing value every season.
Custom storage sheds for tools and equipment solve this by giving your gear a dedicated, purpose-built space. Wide doors for rolling in mowers and ATVs. Reinforced floors that handle heavy loads without flexing. Steel-framed entry with keyed locks for security. And a layout designed around how you actually use your tools, not just how many you own.
At Wright’s Shed Co., we’ve been building custom sheds for homeowners, contractors, and hobby farmers across Utah, Idaho, Nebraska, and Iowa since 1997. Every shed is built on-site with residential-grade materials and engineered to handle the weight, weather, and daily use that tool and equipment storage demands.
Use our free 3D builder to configure your shed with the exact doors, size, and layout your gear requires.
A basic shed stores boxes. A tool and equipment shed stores weight, bulk, and sharp edges. The structural requirements are fundamentally different, and cutting corners on any of them leads to sagging floors, jammed doors, and damaged gear.
Here’s what separates a purpose-built tool shed from a prefab box:
| Feature | Basic Prefab Shed | Wright’s Custom Tool Shed |
|---|---|---|
| Floor System | Thin plywood on lightweight joists | 3/4” tongue & groove OSB on pressure-treated 2x6 joists or galvanized steel |
| Door Width | Standard 36” single door | Single, double, or custom-width steel-framed doors with ramp option |
| Wall Framing | 2x3 or 2x4 at 24” spacing | 2x4 at 16” on center with double top plates supports shelving, pegboards, and loft loads |
| Security | Basic hasp or padlock loop | Steel-framed door with decorative black hinges and keyed latch entry |
| Siding | Thin OSB or vinyl panels | LP SmartSide engineered wood, 50-year limited warranty, impact-resistant |
| Weather Protection | Basic 3-tab shingles, minimal overhang | GAF Timberline architectural shingles (lifetime limited warranty), full drip edge, ridge, and soffit vents |
| Warranty | 1–2 year limited | 50-year siding warranty + 8-year craftsmanship warranty on Orchard, Lean-To, and Farm styles |
The floor system is the most critical difference. A riding mower weighs 400–600 pounds. An ATV can exceed 800. Prefab shed floors aren’t built for that. Wright’s Shed Co. uses the same 3/4-inch tongue and groove flooring found in second-story residential construction because your equipment deserves a surface that won’t buckle.
Door width is equally important. Try squeezing a 54-inch mower deck through a standard 36-inch door. It’s a recipe for scraped knuckles and damaged equipment.
Wright’s Shed Co. designs custom storage sheds for tools and equipment with oversized, steel-framed double doors that make roll-in access effortless.
The better question is: what can’t you store?
Custom storage sheds for tools and equipment are designed to handle everything from hand tools to heavy machinery. Here’s what our customers typically store:
Lawn and Yard Equipment
Power Tools and Workshop Gear
Recreational and Specialty Equipment
The key to organizing all of this is designing the shed layout around your largest equipment first, then filling in vertical wall space with shelving, pegboards, and hooks for hand tools. A loft adds 40–60 square feet of overhead storage for seasonal items you don’t access daily.
Size selection starts with your largest piece of equipment. Measure it, add maneuvering clearance, and then account for everything else you need to store alongside it.
| Size | Floor Area | What Fits | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8x10 | 80 sq ft | Push mower, hand tools, shelving, small workbench | Basic garden tool storage |
| 10x14 | 140 sq ft | Riding mower + push mower, tool wall, workbench | Active homeowner with yard equipment |
| 10x20 | 200 sq ft | Riding mower, snow blower, power tools, lumber rack, workbench | DIYer or hobbyist with workshop needs |
| 12x16 | 192 sq ft | ATV or side-by-side + tools, seasonal equipment, shelving | Rural property owner or contractor |
| 12x24 | 288 sq ft | Multiple vehicles/machines, full workshop, loft for overhead storage | Full equipment shed + workshop combo |
Pro tip: Always size up. Every homeowner we’ve built for in the past 20+ years who went with the smaller option wished they’d added at least one size. Equipment accumulates. A shed that fits today will feel tight in two years.
Wright’s Shed Co. offers four shed styles, and three of them are natural fits for custom storage sheds for tools and equipment:
The Orchard’s classic gable roof with a 6/12 pitch provides strong overhead clearance for loft storage above your floor-level equipment. Pop-out transom windows bring natural light into the workspace without sacrificing wall space for tool organization. This is the most popular model for homeowners who want a clean residential look with serious interior functionality.
The Farm’s Gambrel roof and eight-foot sidewalls create the largest usable volume of any model. If you’re storing a riding mower, an ATV, and a full workbench setup all under one roof, the Farm delivers. The optional loft gives you deep overhead storage for lumber, seasonal gear, and bins. This is the go-to for rural properties and hobby farms that need a working outbuilding.
The mono-slope roof creates a modern profile that tucks against fences or property lines cleanly. Higher ceilings on one side allow for tall equipment storage or clerestory windows. Lean-To sheds are popular with homeowners who need equipment access from the side of their property rather than the rear.
For hands-on homeowners who want Wright’s quality on their own timeline, our DIY Shed Kit includes premium, pre-cut materials ready for weekend assembly. You get the same engineered components as LP SmartSide siding, pressure-treated base, and architectural shingles packaged for self-installation.
When you use our 3D shed builder to configure the exact dimensions, the possibilities are wide open. Here’s how our customers across Utah, Idaho, Nebraska, and Iowa are putting their custom storage sheds for tools and equipment to work:
The Landscaper’s Haven:
Commercial zero-turn mowers, weed whackers, leaf blowers, and bags of fertilizer are completely separated from the family vehicles. Double doors and a reinforced ramp make daily loading fast and damage-free.
The Hobbyist’s Studio
Table saws, drill presses, and lumber racks stored safely out of the elements. Loft overhead for material stock. Pop-out transom windows bring in natural light without taking up wall space needed for tool racks.
The Mechanic’s Workshop
A dedicated space with a heavy-duty workbench, air compressors, and tool chests. Electricity wired in for power tools and task lighting. Reinforced floor handles engine blocks and transmission jacks.
The Rural Property Manager
Tractors, feed, fence post supplies, and heavy attachments stored in a Farm shed with eight-foot sidewalls. Enough floor space to drive equipment straight through with wide slider doors.
Lifting heavy items over a door lip is dangerous and can damage both your equipment and the shed’s structure. If you’re storing anything with wheels, riding mowers, wheelbarrows, ATVs, or motorcycles, a ramp is essential.
Wright’s Shed Co. engineers heavy-duty, reinforced ramps that match your shed’s door width and ground clearance. Built to handle high weight capacity without bowing, our ramps feature slip-resistant surfaces for safe loading even in wet weather.
Your tools and equipment represent a significant financial investment. A standard flimsy padlock latch isn’t going to deter a determined thief. Security should be built into the shed’s design from the ground up.
Wright’s Shed Co. equips every shed with steel-framed doors and keyed latch entry as standard. For additional protection, we offer upgraded deadbolt locks, heavy-duty anchor kits, and reinforced door frames that resist forced entry. Your belongings stay exactly where you left them.
Tell us what you need to store. We’ll recommend the right size, model, and layout for your equipment.
Every custom storage shed for tools and equipment from Wright’s Shed Co. includes features that other builders charge extra for. Here’s what comes standard:
3/4” Tongue & Groove OSB Flooring:
Same sheeting used in second-story residential construction. Handles riding mowers, ATVs, and heavy benches without deflection.
GAF Timberline Architectural Shingles
Pair insulation with a ductless mini-split system, and you get a quiet, climate-controlled workspace completely separated from the main house. No commute, no distractions.
Steel-Framed Doors with Keyed Entry
Secure your investment with a steel-framed door, decorative black hinges, and a keyed latch. Ramp-ready thresholds available for roll-in equipment access.
Ridge and Soffit Ventilation
A passive airflow system prevents condensation that rusts metal tools and degrades rubber hoses and belts.
LP SmartSide Engineered Wood Siding
Treated with SmartGuard to resist fungal decay, termites, and impacts. 50-year limited manufacturer warranty.
Sherwin-Williams Exterior Paint
Any color in the Sherwin-Williams palette. Match your home’s exterior or make a statement. Pick your building and shingle colors.
2x4 Framing at 16” On Center
Provides structural support for wall-mounted shelving, pegboards, heavy tool racks, and overhead loft loads.
Ramp
Essential for rolling in riding mowers, wheelbarrows, and heavy equipment without lifting
Extra Doors and Windows
Add a second entry point or cross-ventilation for workshop comfort
Loft
40–60 sq ft of overhead storage for seasonal gear, lumber, and items you access less frequently
Shelving and Workbenches
Interior organization customized to your specific tool inventory
Overhangs and Dormers
Added weather protection and architectural detail
Porch
Built into the sidewall and roof. Provides a shaded workspace outside the shed door
Custom storage sheds for tools and equipment carry more weight than a basic storage shed, which makes the foundation choice especially important.
Wright’s Shed Co. builds on-site, leveling the structure to your exact pad. We build the components in our factory and assemble them at your property, typically completing the job in a single day. No down payment required. You pay only when the build is complete, and you’re satisfied.
It’s a fair question. You could buy a prefab kit for half the price and have it assembled by next weekend. So why spend more on a custom-built structure?
Think about it. That $1,200 prefab has 24-inch stud spacing, a particle-board floor, and vinyl siding thinner than a credit card. By the second winter, the floor is sagging under your riding mower. The doors don’t close flush because the frame has warped on an uneven surface. Condensation is forming on every metal surface inside because there’s no ventilation system. Your $3,000 mower is now rusting in a $1,200 box.
Add it up. A riding mower runs $2,000–$5,000. A decent table saw is $500–$1,500. An ATV starts at $5,000. Power tools, hand tools, seasonal gear, and specialty equipment. Most homeowners are storing $8,000 to $20,000 worth of gear. Is it worth protecting that with a structure that’s engineered for the load and the climate? Or would you rather replace corroded tools and warped equipment every few years?
A prefab shed that fails in five years costs you the replacement price, the labor to remove the old one, a new foundation, and the equipment damage that accumulated along the way. A Wright’s Shed Co. build lasts 30+ years with minimal maintenance. The 50-year siding warranty alone outlasts most prefab sheds by a factor of ten. When you divide the cost over the actual lifespan, custom isn’t more expensive. It’s the only option that holds its value.
Many of our customers start with tool storage and realize the space can do double duty. A 12x20 with a loft gives you a full workshop on the floor and seasonal storage overhead. A 12x24 becomes a workspace where you repair engines, build furniture, or prep landscaping equipment for the next job. The question isn’t just what your shed stores. It’s what your shed enables you to do.
Your tools earn you money or save you time. They deserve better than a rusting prefab box from a big-box store. Wright’s Shed Co. builds every shed to residential-grade standards because your equipment storage should last as long as the equipment inside it.
When you’re investing in a shed that needs to handle real weight, real weather, and daily use for decades, the builder’s standards matter. Wright’s Shed Co. doesn’t cut corners on framing, flooring, or warranties.
We don’t just build sheds. We solve problems that homeowners have been wrestling with for years. Here’s what customers across Utah and Nebraska are telling us after their builds:

Base pricing depends on size and model. Orchard sheds start at $2,300, Farm sheds at $3,418, and Lean-To sheds at $2,327. Upgrades like ramps, lofts, extra doors, and shelving are priced separately. Use the 3D design tool for a real-time estimate.
A 10x12 provides enough room for a riding mower plus basic hand tools. For a riding mower plus a workbench, power tools, and seasonal equipment, we recommend at least a 10x16 or larger.
Yes. The Farm shed with its eight-foot sidewalls and wide door options is ideal for ATVs and side-by-sides. A 12x16 or larger provides enough room for the vehicle plus additional equipment and workspace.
Not necessarily. For most insulated residential sheds, a compacted gravel pad with our pressure-treated skids and 3/4” tongue & groove flooring provides excellent thermal performance. Concrete slabs work well for large workshops.
Our standard floor system uses 3/4-inch tongue and groove OSB on pressure-treated 2x6 joists or galvanized steel. This is the same floor sheeting used in second-story residential construction and handles riding mowers, ATVs, and heavy workbenches.
Ventilation is the key. Wright’s sheds include ridge and soffit vents that create passive airflow, preventing the condensation that causes rust. For additional protection, consider insulation to stabilize interior temperatures.
Most municipalities require permits for sheds over 120 to 200 square feet. Always check with your local building department before construction. Wright’s Shed Co. can help guide you through the process.
Wright’s Shed Co. builds the structure with framing that accommodates electrical wiring. A licensed electrician handles the actual wiring. Adding electricity typically triggers a separate permit requirement.
Most custom tool sheds are completed in one to three days with on-site construction. Wright’s Shed Co. builds the components in our factory and assembles everything at your property. No subcontractors needed.
Yes. A well-built custom storage shed adds functional square footage and organized equipment storage, two features that modern homebuyers actively seek. Quality materials and professional construction maximize the value added.
When built with LP SmartSide siding, architectural shingles, and proper framing, Wright’s tool sheds last 30 years or more. Longevity depends on climate exposure, foundation stability, and routine maintenance. The 50-year siding warranty provides long-term confidence.
