A tool shed shows its advantages when it has been carefully furnished. There should be space for as many utensils as possible and all of them should be easily accessible at all times. In order to accommodate larger and heavier appliances such as a lawnmower in a practical way, the floor and the exit should be designed to be barrier-free and level.
