What's the difference between pre-cut and pre-fab shed kits?

A good question! In the world of shed kits, there are two basic varieties: pre-cut and pre-fab.

Pre-cut kits for garden sheds and outdoor sheds come with materials that are pre-drilled and pre-cut but not pre-assembled. You assemble the components, such as the floor, frame, roof and door. These shed kits can easily be built in a weekend and require some basic power tools. Not all pre-cut shed kits include hardware (such as nails, screws, fasteners, and hinges), so check before you buy or when comparing prices. Wood finishing products, such as paint or stain, are usually extra.

Pre-fab (pre-fabricated) kits for garden sheds are the easiest kits to assemble. These shed kits come with all components constructed and ready to erect on you site. The walls, doors, flooring, siding, roofing materials, and even the nails and hardware may be included. With minimal construction experience, and some basic power tools, pre-fab shed kits can often be completed in a day.
