Cedar Sheds - this product line uses 1/2x6" rough clear cedar beveled siding. This is a premium siding product that is frequently used in residential applications. It is typically from old growth forests so the siding has very few or no knots at all. No knots (aka "clear") is very desirable because it looks and performs excellent! The siding is then attached directly to the interior 2"x3" wall studs. The siding and studs are then fabricated into pre-built (panelized) sections that the customer assembles.
Garden Sheds - these sheds use a custom 5/8"x6" tight knot cedar shiplap siding. This siding is custom cut at the factory for these sheds specifically. The wood is new growth and comes from the interior of British Columbia, Canada. The siding is then attached to a premium mahogany veneered plywood, that is then attached to the interior 2"x3" stud. The siding and studs are then fabricated into pre-built (panelized) sections that the customer assembles.
Shed Kits - these items provide an excellent value because they are low cost and high quality. There are no prebuilt sections or panels (like the other two styles) keep the costs down low. That's why they are cheaper, but what makes them such good value is the quality of the siding. These shed kits use a product known Shakertown siding. Shakertown consists of multiple high quality, vertical grain, cedar shakes that have been attached to a plywood backing to form a long siding strip. The length of the siding strip will depend on your shed size. 8x12' will have 8' and 12' cedar siding strips.
