This Outdoor Storage Find Is a Space-Saving Gem and It’s $50 Off Right Now

A few months ago my husband and I were forced into a major garage cleanout. The previous owners of our home had built a platform in the corner, which was essentially a large wood square supported by some wood slats on the wall and held up by a single post that rested on the floor of the garage. It was like a false “second floor” where we could stash things on top, such as tackle boxes, pool floats, and our kayak, and use the underside of the platform, which had slots, to store yard tools like brooms and rakes. 

It was convenient, but one day I noticed that the platform looked slanted. On closer inspection, I saw that the entire floor of the platform had fallen. It was a huge hazard, so my husband took the whole thing down. We used this as an opportunity to declutter any extra things that we were holding on to. But the yard tools, which we still needed to keep, ended up without a place. I definitely didn’t want them leaning up somewhere random in the garage, and we couldn’t hang them on the wall because there wasn’t any remaining space for hooks. 

So I turned to outdoor furniture and storage company Keter for a solution. They had reached out to me in the past about trying out a full-sized storage shed, and although we would have loved to have one, our HOA rules prohibit any free-standing structure like that in our yard. But Keter’s Premier Tall Storage Shed, which is a smaller-sized shed, looked like it could solve our storage problem — without breaking any HOA rules. 

The company graciously sent the shed to me to try. You can purchase the Premier Tall Storage Shed directly on the Keter website for $334.39 or get it on Amazon right now for $50 off, making it $284 instead.

The Premier Tall Storage Shed is a small, easy-to-assemble shed kit built with double-wall resin construction and steel reinforcements. It measures 67.1 inches high and 55.1 inches wide and has a diameter of 29 inches. It’s UV- and water-resistant, so it can withstand all weather conditions.

As soon as the shed came, we got to work. Well, my 14-year-old son got to work! He was able to build the entire thing in a couple of hours. He said it was challenging, but he did the whole thing completely by himself! This speaks to how straightforward the unit is to assemble. 

Once built, we moved the shed outside and set it against the back of our house, next to our storage bench. Because of its height, the shed was perfect for storing our tall outdoor tools. I love that our outdoor items are now stored right where we need them in the backyard (rather than in the garage) and in a way that we can see everything we own. The shed itself is attractive, sturdy, and can be locked if necessary. 

The shed also includes adjustable brackets to support two shelves (shelves not included), so later, if we wanted to store other things, such as outdoor cushions or smaller gardening tools, we could. You can even purchase this corner tool rack to enhance your shed storage even more.

Additionally, the storage shed is easy to open and close, and will keep our items not only tucked out of sight, but also protected from the elements. I absolutely love how it turns otherwise dead storage space against our house into functional space that makes our yard easier to care for by making our tools so accessible.
