Bike 'n' Bin Shed - RealCedar.com

A STYLISH & VERSATILE CEDAR STORAGE SHED
Free project plans through the link here: www.realcedar.com/outdoor/fre....
This multi-purpose project is very versatile. With latched doors, it can be used as an animal-proof organizer for recycling bins, compost bins etc., keeping small critters like raccoons from rummaging through your garbage. And because the plans call for Western Red Cedar, an aromatic wood, this bin is going to cut down on odors.
Another option is to use this shed for securely storing sporting equipment. Thanks to the bi-fold door system that opens all the way up, you can easily access all your gear. Either way, this shed is going to last you a very long time. That’s because it’s made with Western Red Cedar, which is naturally resistant to rot, decay and insects.
About WRCLA
The Western Red Cedar Lumber Association is a non-profit association representing 27 producers of the finest Western Red Cedar lumber throughout the US and Canada. Ask for our quality products by name: “Real Cedar”!
Why Real Cedar?
For starters, this highly revered, durable wood is naturally resistant to rot, decay and insect attacks, which means any project you build with Real Cedar will last longer and require less maintenance. But wait!
There’s more:
BEAUTY - Aesthetically, there really is no substitute for the natural beauty of Real Cedar. Imbued with decidedly crisp, yet superbly rich, tonal properties, Real Cedar can create dynamic outdoor sanctuaries, embolden traditional home décor and inspire cutting-edge architecture.
VERSATILITY - Western Red Cedar is pitch and resin-free. Which means it’s ideal for accepting and holding a wide range of beautiful finishes. Real Cedar also offers a wide range of lumber dimensions, surface textures and grades. Ergo, whatever your desired effect is, Real Cedar’s got the wood for you.
SUSTAINABILITY - Independent studies prove that when it comes to environmental performance, natural wood is superior to synthetics products in every way. While other building materials generate greenhouse gasses, Western Red Cedar actually removes greenhouse gasses from the atmosphere. And unlike brick, cement and composites, Real Cedar is renewable and biodegradable. Plus, Real Cedar is sourced from the most sustainably managed forests in the world.

Jim got friend zoned right out the gate.

[@tonyb80]

what an amazing, easy to follow and straightforward tutorial. THANK YOU!

[@WRCLA]

Awesome. Share your project when you finish. We would love to see it. :)

[@biggaywizard]

This is a great build! I'm a former professional bicycle race mechanic, I own five bikes, my kids have two bikes each and my wife has three bikes. For people with more than two bikes I'd build this taller so you can put bike hooks in it so you can hang the bikes and get far more bikes in there.

[@WRCLA]

Nice idea. Send us a photo of your finished project with the mods.

[@dcrunicycles]

Thank you from Truckee California

[@WRCLA]

You are most welcome!

[@johnlee7085]

A lot more attention should be given to making it level. Without any torsional support on the front, even a couple degrees out of level will have it leaning downhill in the very near future.

Looks like Candace has had enough of Jim’s geometry jokes! 😂😂😂 4:05

[@HcocoH]

Nice work and inspirational, I want to make a gardening tools shed so it will sure help me … thanks

[@davidverzwyvelt1962]

You mention that if the base isn't square you can "rack it square." Any tips on how you would go about that?

[@WRCLA]

Our reps at RealCedar.com can help with this question. Please contact them through the link here. www.realcedar.com/about/contact

[@jamesdivito]

No response so far

[@nuancedliars112]

Why would you want a roof that allowed light in to fade your items?

[@mysdak]

Base with 2x4s on the flat? Why do it that way. It’s so weak and it will flex.

[@johnhubbard6262]

This is slanted toward homeowners that are going to drop it on a slab/sidewalk of the home. Ones that will not notice it does not take into account the grade. He did say he shimmed it level, but neglected to mention with that flat 2x4 construction those shims had to be on all runners, end to end.

[@alfonzomayora5790]

Unprofessional reaction after the greek guy comment. Could have edited it.

[@brain2831]

Pivot doors’ hinges are mounted on the top and bottom side of the door, instead of on the side. The pivot door rotates on a vertical axis. A pivot doors movement is visually very different from a regular hinged door. When the hinge is placed 4“ from the side of the door, these 4“ create the pivot door’s ‘tail.’ This tail will swing inward for an outward swinging door and outward for an inward swinging door, giving it it’s unique aesthetic value and contemporary look and feel.
