A Guide to Choosing the Perfect Shed Color
The right color can make your new shed feel like it was made for your property. The hard part is choosing it.
Your home, landscape and personal style can all help point you in the right direction, whether you want your storage shed to blend in, complement your home or stand out. Your choice of shed siding, roofing and trim will bring that look together.
There may be a few practical considerations, too. Homeowners in an HOA may need to follow neighborhood guidelines, while renters should check with their property owner or manager before purchasing a shed or choosing its colors.
Here’s what to consider when choosing the right color for your storage shed.
Make It a Masterpiece
Paint color is only one way to give your shed the look you want. If standard or custom paint isn’t what you have in mind, Old Hickory Buildings & Sheds offers other siding and finish options that can bring out the character of your building.
Our 3/8-inch LP SmartPanel siding can be painted, left unpainted or finished in one of five Urethane Stains. Urethane Stain lets the texture of the siding show through, giving your shed a more natural finish than traditional paint.
If you prefer a more classic appearance, 5/8-inch T1-11 siding is premium-grade real plywood exterior siding that’s protected against rotting, fungal decay and termites.
Choose Pressure Treated & Sealed T1-11 for a finished natural look, or explore Unsealed T1-11 for more flexibility with your shed’s exterior.
