This step by step woodworking project is about 10×14 lean to shed plans. This shed features a lean to roof and double front doors. I have also added a side window, so you can have some light inside the storage area. You can easily change the direction of the roof slope and make it frontward orriented. Read the local codes before starting the project, so you comply with the requirements. See my other DIY projects HERE.
We recommend you to invest in the best materials you could afford. Therefore, you should buy weather-resistant lumber, such as pine or cedar. Always take accurate measurements before adjusting the size of the components at the proper size. Drill pilot holes trough the components before inserting the wood screws, to prevent the wood from splitting. My plans come with a full cut / shopping list and they are PDF Download and Print friendly.

10×14 Slanted Shed Roof – DIY Plans
Floor frame – 10×14 shed
The first step of the project is to build the floor frame. Cut the joists at from 2×6 lumber. Align the edges flush and make sure the corners are square. Place the joists every 16″ on center. Drill pilot holes and insert 3 1/2″ screws. Alternatively, you can use joist hangers.
Fitting the skids – 10×14 shed
Use 4×4 lumber for the skids. Place the skids under the floor frame. Use rafter ties to secure the skids to the floor frame.
Fitting the floor sheets – 10×14 shed
Use 3/4″ tongue and groove plywood sheets. Cut the sheets at the dimensions shown in the diagram and in the cut list. Leave no gaps between the sheets and align the edges flush. Drill pilot holes and insert 1 5/8″ screws every 8″ along the framing, to secure the sheets into place.
Side wall frame – 10×14 shed
Use 2×4 lumber for the side wall frame. Cut the components at the right dimensions, as shown in the diagram. Drill pilot holes through the plates and insert 3 1/2″ screws to assemble the wall frame. Make sure the corners are square and align the edges flush. Place the studs every 16″ on center.

Build the back wall using the same techniques described above. Place the studs every 16″ on center. Use double studs at both ends of the frame.
Assembling the shed frame – 10×14 shed
Fit the wall frames to the floor of the shed. Align the edges flush and plumb them vertically with a spirit level. Drill pilot holes and insert 3 1/2″ screws through the bottom plates into the floor frame. Check if the corners are square and lock the adjacent wall together tightly with 3 1/2″ screws.

Next, build the wall frame for the front of the shed. Alternatively, you can place this frame to the back of the shed if you want a roof with a backward slope.
Fitting the top front wall – 10×14 shed
Fit the frame to the front of the shed and align the edges flush. Drill pilot holes through the bottom plate of the top frame and insert 3 1/2″ screws. Plumb the top wall with a spirit level.
Front wall siding sheets – 10×14 shed
Use 5/8″ T1-11 siding sheets for the front wall. Attach the siding sheets to the front wall and align the edges flush. Insert 8d nails along the wall frames, every 8″. Use a saw to cut out the openings for the door.
