    Before purchasing this shed I have several questions:
    1. Is the floor self supporting or is it necessary to provide a concrete or wood base?
    2. Can the doors be located on either the 8 foot side or the 10 foot side?
    3. Could a window panel be substituted for a solid panel so that there is a window on both sides?
    4. Could doors be located on both the front and back?

    I'm not an expert on the shed, but I'll tell you my experience with installing it. I installed it on a stone base, which worked ok, but in retrospect I wish I would have either built a wood platform or a cement slab which would have been perfectly level. As far as the doors and windows go, the way it is set up, you can only have doors on the front OR back of the 10 foot side and the window must go on either of the 8 foot sides due to the precut vinyl siding. There are no options as far as buying individual window panels or extra doors/frames as far as I know. Hope this helps.

    I want to put up siding to match my house. The kit siding is 4 inches. Can I put on 5 inch vinyl siding to match my house?

    Although possible if you have siding installation knowledge, the 5" siding will not line up with the pre-formed holes on the shed. Installation of siding this size would involve measuring and cutting on your own. We have done all of that work for you in the Homestyles siding kits.
