Door Magnets

Optional Door Magnets

Using door magnets to hold a shed door open is a practical solution to keep the door secure and prevent it from swinging shut, especially in windy conditions. Our shed door magnets are both strong and weather-resistant, designed for holding heavier doors in place, while also preventing rust and corrosion from outdoor use.

Uses For a Modern Escape Shed

A modern escape shed offers a versatile solution for homeowners looking to add functional space to their property without the need for extensive renovations. These sheds serve a wide range of purposes, making them a popular choice for those seeking an extra room to enhance their lifestyle. One of the most common uses of a modern escape shed is as a home office. With remote work becoming more prevalent, having a dedicated workspace separate from the main house can greatly improve productivity and focus. The quiet, distraction-free environment allows for better concentration and efficiency, which can be challenging to achieve within the bustling household. The most common uses of a modern escape shed include:

  • Home Office – With the rise of remote work, many people use modern escape sheds as home offices. These sheds provide a quiet and professional space to conduct business, attend virtual meetings, and complete work tasks without interruptions.
  • Creative Studio – Artists, writers, and musicians often utilize escape sheds as creative studios. The peaceful environment fosters inspiration and concentration, making it an ideal space for pursuing artistic endeavors.
  • Gym or Wellness Center – Fitness enthusiasts can convert an escape shed into a home gym or wellness center. Equipped with exercise equipment, yoga mats, and other wellness tools, it becomes a convenient space for maintaining physical health.
  • Guest Accommodation – A modern escape shed can serve as a comfortable guest house, providing privacy and amenities for visiting friends and family. This is especially useful for homeowners who frequently host guests but lack sufficient indoor space.
  • Hobby Workshop – For those with hobbies that require space and tools, such as woodworking, gardening, or crafting, an escape shed can function as a dedicated workshop. This keeps potentially messy or noisy activities separate from the main living areas.
 

Key Benefits:

The benefits of a modern escape shed extend beyond their functional uses. These structures can significantly enhance a property’s value by adding extra usable space. Whether used as a guest house, a wellness retreat, or a hobby workshop, an escape shed offers potential buyers a unique and attractive feature. Moreover, the customization options available for these sheds allow homeowners to tailor the space to their specific needs and preferences, further increasing the property’s overall appeal and versatility.
 

Aesthetic Appeal:

Aesthetic appeal is a major benefit of modern escape sheds. These structures can be designed to complement the existing architecture and landscape of a property, enhancing its overall visual appeal. With a variety of styles, materials, and finishes available, homeowners can choose a design that matches their tastes and adds to the charm of their outdoor space. Features like large windows, stylish siding, and landscaped surroundings can make an escape shed an attractive focal point in the yard, contributing to the property’s curb appeal.

Shutters & Flower Boxes

Want to make your portable building match your home and really feel like an extension of your property? Consider adding shutters and/or flowerboxes to your building.

Roof & Wall Insulation

Wall insulation in a shed can improve thermal performance, acoustics, and prevent drafts by blocking winds and regulating temperature. It also creates a quieter environment inside, making it more comfortable to use in any weather.

Pegboards

One of the main advantages of using pegboard is that it maximizes your vertical wall space, leaving your workbenches and toolboxes free for other uses. This allows you to have more available workspace and reduces clutter in your shed or workshop.
