Buy a 20' shipping container and build around it.
Some companies will even install windows and side doors on them for you.
And they're a damn sight more solid than most of those screw-together sheds.

I bought mine at Lowes. However, it's a piece of shit. Didn't even come with all the lumber and fasteners. Had to supply my own. Shitty.

Got my old one at Lowes, came with everything except the roofing shingles (and flooring I think) and the nails to do so. While I suck at roofing and it was my first attempt at building a structure (with help) its made it through a couple hurricanes, and a few years and is still solid as ever.

if you can but also check into having a prebuilt one delivered. When we looked in to building one checked lowes, home depo ect but they were not very good quality and still had to buy shingles, fastners, nails... We ended up getting a prebuilt one delivered and set up for just two hundred more than the basic kit(without above listed stuff) to build our own.

Good luck!

Buy some lumber, nails, siding, and roofing, and build your self a much nicer shed than you could have bought for what you'll spend. And put on double barnstyle doors.
