The short answer is "NO" (however, our Elite Products do include windows, amongst other additional upgrades - be sure to review specific product details carefully under the "Features" section). At Best Barns, our products are structured for customers who enjoy the flexibility in selecting their own accent items. Therefore, ancillary items like windows, shingles, standard garage doors are NOT included and would be the responsibility of the customer to purchase separately.
Depending on the exact model ordered, you may need to purchase paint/stain, shingles/or metal roofing, windows, and doors (man door/garage door as desired). We offer our robust wooden FortressFloorTM option that may be purchased as well.
Yes, you will need a cement slab or a wooden floor. If you desire a cement floor, you may choose to order a kit without a floor. If you order a kit with a floor, you will receive our robust wooden FortressFloorTM option. Ensure the floor is built to the correct size for the model being purchased. DO NOT make the floor larger than required.
No. Best Barns only offers "do it yourself" (DIY) shed kits. If assembly is required, customers must hire their own contractor/construction company as needed.
Best Barns DIY kits provide pre-cut components designed for the homeowner to assemble. Depending on the model and accessories ordered some cutting may be required.

No specialty tools are needed. The most common tools needed are a drill, ladder, hammer, saw, tape measure, pencil, safety glasses, square and 6′ level.
Large DIY kits from Best Barns are delivered curbside with liftgate via a common carrier. Although the driver may have a pallet jack, placement and movement of the delivery beyond the end of driveway is the customer's responsibility. We recommend having additional help at the time of delivery. Our retail partners (Home Depot, Lowe’s and Menards) also offer a ship-to-store option (customer makes arrangements to either pick the kit up or have the store deliver). This option may be helpful if you are located in a remote location or have specific needs that a common carrier cannot provide.
Once we receive the order it normally takes 5-7 days to ship the item.
Best Barns' kits are shipped with loose nails for framing by hand. You may choose to build using a nail gun but the nails for your nail gun will need to be purchased separately.
Once the floor is complete, level and square, it typically takes 2-3 people about 2-3 days to complete. Individual skill and size of kit will affect these times.

Local building code requirements for human occupancy, optional window upgrades are not insulated, trusses are 2×4 construction which will be difficult to insulate properly, the dormers for select models cannot be insulated, barn and/or sliding doors cannot be insulated.

Overhang Oasis
"I couldn't be happier with my new Overhang Oasis shed! The unique front overhang not only gives it a stylish, finished look but also provides extra protection from the elements—perfect for keeping my workbench dry on rainy days. The overhead split loft design is a game-changer for storage, allowing me to neatly organize seasonal gear and tools without taking up valuable floor space. The step-by-step instructions made assembly a breeze, even for someone like me with minimal building experience. This shed is both functional and visually appealing—highly recommend!"
