A Rubbermaid Vertical
Storage Shed Could Solve Your Storage Problems
The Rubbermaid
vertical storage shed is the perfect size for small spaces when extra
storage
is needed. If you are looking for a place to store a variety of
equipment but simply
do not have the
room for a large building type storage shed, then you may want to
investigate
these vertical outdoor storage sheds.
These sheds are available through many outlets
online. Vertical storage
sheds can also be used as
easily indoors as they can be used outside.
Assembly
The tallest in the
vertical shed range is 6’ high, which
allows you to even assemble one in a room in your home or garage. As a matter of fact, it
can take longer to
unpack the shed pieces than it does putting it together. While the
description does contain
the word ‘shed’ indicating outdoor use, these are actually very
versatile
storage units that can be used anywhere in and around your home for
whatever
you need to store. Only
your imagination
is the limit.
What
sizes are the
different models of Rubbermaid vertical storage sheds?
The standard shed is 5’7”
high by 2’2” wide by 1’7” deep.
The large storage shed measures 5’11” high by 3’11” wide by
2’1” deep.
There are two modular
models for storing larger items:
The standard modular shed
stands 6’ high by 5’ wide by 2’6”
deep
The double modular shed is 6’ high by 5’ wide by 5’5” deep.
Securing the doors
These storage sheds have
two doors which can be locked. The
lock is not supplied with the shed (ie you
must provide the lock), but that allows you to choose the type of lock
you want
to use. There are
no windows as these
vertical storage sheds as they are designed solely for storage and
saving space. I
have heard of people who use Rubbermaid
vertical storage sheds on the small balconies of their apartments to
store
items such as telescopes for stargazing or even their Christmas trees
and
decorations. You do
not have to use them
solely for gardening tools like rakes and shovels or other household
tools such
as hammers and nails.
Shelves
Each of these storage
sheds comes with slots so that you can
add shelves to them. Some
of them have
been reported to come with two shelves, but most of them do not have
the
shelves included. However,
Rubbermaid
does give you the shelving dimensions if you wish to make your own
wooden shelves
for your shed. This
could be an
advantage, because if you use your Rubbermaid vertical storage shed in
the home
- for example, you use it to store craft supplies - you can make your
own shelves
and then finish them in something like contact paper in order to avoid
getting
splinters.
Performance
When you use one of these
sheds outside you will find that
they are leak proof, will not dent, and are weather resistant. If you live in an area
where the weather can
get violent, it is advisable to anchor these vertical storage sheds to
a wall
or down to the ground to stop them from being blown over. Additionally, use joint
lock adhesive in the
joints when assembling it to help give the shed some extra strength and
durability.
There is no doubt that a
Rubbermaid vertical storage shed
offers you the perfect way to store your items safely and keep them
from being
ruined by the elements. They
are easy to
assemble, provide you with a good amount of space, and are rugged -
made with
the same Rubbermaid care as all of the companies other products.
