One of the easiest ways to add storage space to your property is to build a simple pole shed. Once it’s up, it’s important to keep it well-organized so everything is easy to find when you need it. Here are a few organization tips to keep your pole building in order.
Pole Shed Space Management
1. Versatile Shelving
While you can attach shelves to your walls, it’s often better to choose adjustable or freestanding shelves that can be moved around. This way, you can easily rearrange the space to accommodate new tools and equipment.
2. Hanging Tools
Tools can be hung along the wall using a pegboard, slat wall, or utility hooks. Make sure to set aside space for each tool, including larger items like electric screwdrivers. You can even hang up buckets and other containers for smaller items.
3. Door Storage
In addition to using your wall space efficiently, you should also add storage to the inside of your pole shed’s doors. Hang pockets on the space to hold hardware or seeds, or put up a blackboard for notes and reminders.
4. Jars & Buckets
For nails, screws, pencils, and other loose items and pieces of hardware, a simple jam jar is an efficient storage option. Sort your items by type and organize them by size or with the most-used items in front.
5. Vertical Storage
A pole shed can be much taller than you are, so make the most of that vertical space. Store light but bulky items in the rafters under the metal roof, and keep a stepladder handy to get them down. Just be careful—you don’t want to store anything heavy or sharp this way, as it may fall.
