Working on your bike in the garage feels like work, while working on it in the shed feels like fun. A sturdy man cave shed can be the perfect place to do the necessary work and to store your motorcycle when it’s not in use. Plus, you can fit a buddy or two (whether or not they ride) into the shed while you work, making for an afternoon well spent. A reinforced floor is essential to handle the weight of your bike, and fortunately that’s an upgrade we offer.

Man Cave Shed Essentials

The shed you buy really does make a difference. If you’re planning to hang out here for decades, you want it to be comfortable and you want it to last.

The best man cave sheds are roomy with tall ceilings. Bigger dimensions make it easy to sit or stand without feeling cramped. Plus, even though men don’t always admit it, they can appreciate the finer things in design as well — having a stylish looking man cave shed is absolutely essential.

For both the stylish and practical reasons, the most-popular man cave shed style is either Victorian sheds or classic A-frame sheds. Both of these sheds have a higher roof pitch for tall men — and they look fantastic, too. However, if you want us to build you a totally custom shed, that’s an option as well. The most common sizes for man cave sheds range from 12X20 to 14X24, depending on how you plan to use it.

Some other important extras you might consider adding to your man cave shed include:

  • Electrical hookup package
  • Insulated doors and windows
  • Second floor loft
  • Double doors

This is one stop shop. They came in and removed my 33 yr old (in (bad shape) shed, leveled out the pad location, bought in stone of at least 4 inches, outlined the new pad with 4x4's and bought in my new shed which was perfectly level. All of this in less than 7 hours. Very happy with the whole process!!!

I had my 12x24 Victorian shed installed yesterday. I can't say enough good words of the great customer service received by from Dave, Dan & the installers Amos, Jeff & Galen!Good quality craftmanship & price not bad either for the type of shed. They accommodated me by preparing the foundation & installing the shed all in one day because bad weather is expected today! Thank you men for a job well done! I definitely would highly recommend Glick Woodworks for anyone in the market for a shed!
