Storage sheds, garden sheds, backyard studios and small barns: kits, installed sheds, plans, steel sheds, foundations and anchors. Check with your local building and zoning department before you buy. Under the model International Residential Code, a one-story detached shed up to 120 square feet often needs no building permit, but many towns set their own limits, and zoning setbacks, easements, HOA rules and electrical permits still apply. Call 811 before digging footings. Anchor every shed against wind, even small ones; FEMA and FLASH explain how. In wildfire areas, keep sheds and firewood well away from your house. Kits and builders below are commercial.
