Duramate 8x5.5
Classic vinyl shed at this size. No side window. The pick when you want standard shed configuration without extras and at the lower price point.
Storeall 8x5.5
Adds a side window for daylight inside. Better daytime visibility for finding items, plus the ability to verify contents from outside.
Questions about 8x6 sheds.
Duramate or Storeall?
If you want the standard shed at the lower price point, the Duramate. If you value the side window for daylight (especially if you regularly access the shed during the day without separate lighting), the Storeall. Both have the same vinyl construction quality and warranty.
What fits in an 8x6?
Complete lawn equipment loadout, 3-4 adult bikes plus gear, workbench plus tool storage along the 8 ft back wall, or smallest residential riding mowers with side shelving. The 5.5 ft depth means everything stays accessible from the front.
Do I need a permit?
Usually not. At 44 sq ft, the 8x6 falls under typical 120 sq ft no-permit thresholds in most municipalities. Confirm with your local building department and HOA.
What foundation works?
A 4-inch concrete slab with rebar is the longest-lasting, but a pressure-treated wood platform over compacted gravel works fine at this size.
How long does install take?
4-6 hours for two people. Most buyers DIY in an afternoon. Installation manuals on our manuals page.
What is the warranty?
DuraMax's 15-year limited manufacturer warranty on both. Full details on our warranty page.
About DuraMax 8x6 Sheds
The DuraMax 8x6 lineup (officially 8 ft x 5 ft 6 in, ~44 sq ft) is the compact rectangular shed in the line. The 8 ft length with 5.5 ft depth fits residential yards better than a square shape when you have width but limited backyard depth. We carry two model options at this footprint.
The Duramate 8x5.5 (SKU 00184) is the classic vinyl shed at this size. UV-stabilized vinyl resin panels over a galvanized steel framework, integrated foundation kit, single front door. No side window - the classic configuration. The pick if you want the standard shed without extras.
The Storeall 8x5.5 (SKU 30115) adds a side window for daylight inside the shed. Same vinyl construction quality as the Duramate, with the window making it easier to find things during the day without turning on a light. Many buyers also use the window to verify content visually from outside (helpful for renters or buyers who store items they check on regularly).
44 sq ft of floor space holds a complete lawn equipment loadout (push mower, blower, trimmer, hand tools), 3-4 adult bikes plus gear, a workbench plus tool storage along the 8 ft back wall, or a compact riding mower (smallest residential models) with side shelving. The 5.5 ft depth keeps everything accessible from the front.
Installation takes 4-6 hours for two people. Most buyers DIY in an afternoon. Permits: at 44 sq ft, the 8x6 falls under typical 120 sq ft no-permit thresholds. Confirm with your local building department and HOA.

Deeper or wider alternatives.
Same width with more depth, or different dimensional shapes.
Window or no window?
The Storeall's side window costs slightly more but makes daytime visibility much better. We can help you pick in one business day.
