Good question. I would think that it can, but with 2x3 construction, you should consult an insulation specialist to determine what your best option is. Ventilation is an issue for this shed, so ask about moisture issues when considering insulation.

Yes, you can insulate this shed if you choose to. It is recommended to put up drywall then insulate behind the drywall. I hope this helps.

There should be a piece of pre-finished particle board that matches the outer colour. This is installed on one door, immedately adjecent to a piece of 2x3 that is installed 1 inch from the gap between the doors. This process can be found on page 28 of the instruction booklet.

Yes, the floor is not very strong, though, and it's covered with particle board that flexes badly in some areas. A foundation of some type will provide greater strength and support. A link to the assembly instructions is included on the web page for this item and gives a schematic of the floor.

how many packs of shingles to do the roof.

answer 1
It took me 4 1/3 bundles. This was my first time shingling. It takes 3 pieces + 5 inches to go across. so if you re-use the scrap you will save a lot. I ended up putting an extra row on the first side since it was just 6 inches short of the peak without it.
I also put a drip edge around the entire roof.

Depending on the comfort level of using hand tools and ease in following directions, it should take no longer than one to two days to complete. I would suggest having two people to speed the process and help each other when holding siding up to be nailed.

It depends on whether you use a foundation and what type you use. Assembly of the shed takes about a day to a day and a half. Finishing it inolves, roofing materials (felt and shingles), caulking and painting. Allow 2-3 days for assembly and finishing. Time estimates assume that you have all the tools you need, have some help available, and have some basic knowledge of and experience with construction. Although this shed comes with a floor, I would highly recommend a foundation for added strength and durability. Foundation times will vary greatly depending on what type of foundation you use.

The Montana is available only as an 8' x 10'. However, each Home Depot store offers a full line of Handy Home special order Sheds. A 14' x14' is not available in any style, but the Berkley and Sequoia styles are available in a wide array of sizes. Information sheets on all available sizes are located in the Handy Home Products displays located in the parking lot of most Home Depot stores.
