Compact layouts
A 6x6 shed can suit tools, bikes and smaller equipment. It is a good starting point where site space is tight.
Use the Baier Group shed designer to turn these choices into a quote-ready concept. The more specific the design, the easier it is to discuss materials, engineering and final pricing.
Versatile three bay layouts
A 6x9 or 3 bay shed gives more separation, making it easier to combine storage, workshop and open shelter.
Plan for growth
If the block is still developing, consider whether future animals, trailers or implements need extra room.
Next steps
Start with the shed use, then choose a realistic footprint, bay count and wall layout. If you are comparing options, save the practical features first: access, weather protection, height and enough room to work safely around equipment.
