This OLT 12'x4' Western Red Cedar lean-to shed has 60"-wide sliding doors, so it fits narrow side yards, patios and fence lines where a swinging door won't open. It holds about 279 cu. ft. on a 141½" × 45½" footprint, only 4 ft deep.
Pick the roof slope that suits your spot:
-
SpaceSaver: tall 96" wall at the back, sloping to 84" at the front. Best against a house or fence, with rain running off the front.
-
GardenSaver: tall 96" wall at the front, sloping to 84" at the back, for the most headroom at the doors and a tall front wall for hanging bikes.
Then choose a cedar shingle or 26-gauge Galvalume metal roof. The door opening is 60" W × 72" H and the interior floor is 136½" × 41½". Walls are cedar siding pre-attached to the framing, on cedar floor joists with a ⅝" plywood floor. Most people assemble it in 1–2 days with basic tools; all hardware is included.
Made in Canada by Outdoor Living Today. Includes a 1-year warranty on manufacturing and workmanship, plus a 3-year limited warranty against rot and decay of the cedar.

12x4 Cedar Lean-To Shed with Sliding Doors FAQ
SpaceSaver or GardenSaver: which should I pick?
Both are the same 12'x4' cedar shed. SpaceSaver has the tall 96" wall at the back, so it sits cleanly against a house or fence and rain runs off the front. GardenSaver has the tall wall at the front, for more headroom at the doors and a tall front wall for hanging bikes.
Why sliding doors?
They open a full 60" without swinging out, so you can put the shed along a walkway, deck or narrow side yard.
What fits inside?
About 279 cu. ft. on a 136½" × 41½" interior floor: bikes, lawn tools, a push mower, pool and patio gear.
Cedar or metal roof?
Cedar shingles match the siding. The 26-gauge Galvalume metal roof sheds snow easily and costs a little less.
What base do I need?
A level foundation such as pavers, a framed gravel pad or a concrete slab, slightly larger than the 141½" × 45½" footprint.
Do I need a permit?
That depends on your town and HOA. At about 48 sq. ft. it is under the size many towns exempt, but check with your local building department first.
