This 12 x 16 Best Barn shed kit is the perfect single-car garage kit with an additional loft! A beautiful traditional barn-style appeal with plenty of storage space. It provides high headroom measuring 12'9". The loft has a 4' opening provided to allow access on either end of the Tahoe's second floor. The loft also has working loft doors to provide additional access. This is the perfect DIY kit. Everything is precut except the siding and roof sheathing to save you money and time. The siding has vertical grooves that give an attractive plank look. They are primed so you can paint the color of your choice (latex acrylic paint is recommended). The siding is treated with composibor and prevents fungal decay and insect damage. The siding is manufactured with wood strands that are pressed into a resin-saturated substrate making it superior to plywood. The Best Barn wood garage components fit easily into place with no special tools or skills required. For extra strength to the trusses, metal hurricane truss hangers are provided to secure trusses to the exterior walls. All required hardware is included. The building is shown with optional windows, a cupola, shutters, and a side door. The garage, roof edge, and shingles are provided by the owner.
Wood floor is optional. The sturdy-built wood floor is easy to construct and designed specifically for your building. This floor is designed for buildings incorporating an overhead garage door. A galvanized sill plate is provided with this floor system. It comes standard with 3/4" plywood flooring and 2x4 treated floor joists spaced 12" o.c. The floor is supported with 4x4 treated runners. Nails are included. Material is not pre-cut. Floor sheathing is not treated. The floor package will be delivered, prior to your shed, by a local lumber supplier.
TAHOE KIT FEATURES:

Hardware
The Best Barn wood shed kit components fit easily into place with no special tools or skills required. All required hardware is included. Roof edge and shingles are provided by the owner as most customer’s want to purchase that locally to match their home.
Floor
Optional Floor: If you have an already existing level foundation, cement slab, blacktop or gravel base, the floor kit is still recommended as you do not want your siding and walls touching the ground where they can soak up water. If you don’t purchase the floor, you’ll need some sort of wooden base or material to raise the shed off the direct ground. The floor includes treated 4x4 runners, 2 x 4's for the floor joists, and ¾” plywood. Raising the foundation above the ground the 4 x 4's allow air to flow an eliminate moisture. All nails are included. The floor does require cutting and assembly and floor sheathing is not treated.
Windows
Single-hung aluminum 18? x 36? windows provide light and ventilation. Lockable frames are durable and easy to operate. Screens limit birds and insects. Comes with vinyl shutters ready to paint.
Doors
The Tahoe is designed with high headroom and an 8 ft. x 7 ft. garage door opening, you purchase locally to match the style of your home, making this perfect for your vehicle, storage or work area. If purchasing a roll-up door you will need a 6? low headroom kit for the track system.

Pre-hung 9-lite walk-in door includes aluminum threshold and lockset
Dimensions
Please note that if the pallet has damage it should be noted with the driver. The driver will have you sign for the order and if you notice any damage we recommend noting that with the driver. That helps to ensure that we can send you a replacement and that we can file a claim with the freight company. Note, you do not have to do any paperwork or file any claims if something is damaged. We make it as simple as possible, but it is required to note any damage with the driver on the paperwork when you sign for the delivery. If you have any questions we are here to help so please ask.
Buyers remorse - please note that these are very heavy items and we pay a sizable amount in shipping and handling to get these to you (shipping is free to you). Please check with your local city and county office buildings to ensure that you are able to put in a storage shed. Please check with your local HOA as well. If you decide to return the storage shed for these reasons please keep in mind there is a 15% restocking fee and the freight incurred to get it too and from is not refunded. Again, if anything is damaged or defective we send out the parts at no additional cost.
