Here at Lapp Structures, we are a Lancaster County, Pennsylvania-based company that has created and manufactured quality Amish built sheds and backyard structures for more than three decades. Choosing a small business like Lapp Structures has its benefits. You're not just a number with us: instead, the personal connection we build with each and every customer helps us exceed your expectations in quality, service, and customer satisfaction. The result is a structure that is built to your needs, not some one-size-fits-all model that looks like every other shed on your block.
Spruce up your patio and create a place to entertain or relax with our outdoor furniture. Relax in a rocker or glider by the fire pit after a long day. Lounge in a lawn swing with that special someone and watch the sun go down. Our furniture is comfortable and long-lasting so you can relax and enjoy it year after year. There's a growing trend over the past few years to bring the comforts of indoors outside so you can spend more time enjoying the fresh air while expanding your living space. We have the structures and outdoor furniture to help you do exactly what you want and need.
Garden Sheds are built using the same base as an A-Frame, but with a steeper roof pitch and sturdy hurricane ties. This simple change opens up a world of possibilities, as the Garden Shed is one of our most customizable styles. The Garden Shed is similar to the A-Frame, and is a popular choice for customers looking for a timeless design but wanting to stay within a limited budget. But we often hear from our customers that the Garden Shed offers a style that is irresistible. That's why we think our Garden Shed has great potential for flexibility of use - whether you want a potting shed, art studio, or perhaps just a secluded backyard hideaway to get away from it all.
Most people, when considering a shed, are looking for ways to keep the elements out. The studio shed aims to do the opposite: with a double row of windows across the front-facing wall, this modern shed style purposely brings the outside in. As the name suggests, the Studio shed is targeted towards creatives or those looking for an inspiration space. It's a great spot for a new home office, a place to compose, dance, write, weave, paint, or sit, or just to relax and contemplate on how you will be spending the rest of your day.
Sheds aren't the only structures we design and build. Gardeners and farmers also come to us looking for quality greenhouse structures of all shapes and sizes. Our greenhouses are precisely crafted by experts in gardening and construction, making them world-class. Lapp Structures' Amish built greenhouses are maintenance free, and feature 8mm twin-wall polycarbonate panels providing semi-diffused light, making them dual-use greenhouses. Our pressure-treated structural frame includes white vinyl exterior trim boards for years of maintenance free durability.
Our single car garages can be designed using our A-Frame, Garden Shed, and High Barn roof styles. They don't only protect your car, but also add valuable additional storage space. In most designs, we can add a sturdy loft to free up floor space below. Based upon our A-Frame design, the double wide gives you enough space to store two full-sized vehicles inside, while still providing additional space for storage. The double wide is also easy to install: delivered in two prefabricated sections, this large shed can be built in as little as a day.
Pergolas add depth and interest to an otherwise typical backyard. They won't protect you from a sudden rainstorm, but their open air design and light shade protection will give you the perfect space to experience a beautiful, sunny day. Pergolas are an attractive option to section off a portion of your yard as entertainment space. They compliment most hardscaping elements like stone walkways, decking, in-ground pools, and can even be integrated with one of our sheds. Looking for a little more privacy in your backyard?
Gazebos are a throwback to outdoor living that look great in nearly any backyard. They're more enclosed to offer greater protection from weather while providing a more intimate space to relax in. Gazebos are flexible structures in the sense that they can enhance most landscaping elements you may already have in your backyard. They're perfect for extending existing hardscaping like a deck, or they can be added to a flower garden to create a fairytale-esque lounging area. No matter where they're placed, gazebos are able to create a cozy living space perfect for intimate gatherings.
Lapp Structures uses several different methods to deliver your structure. In some cases, we can have our pre built sheds delivered directly to you, while some sheds are built on site. Which options are available to you depend on the size of the building you purchase and access to the site where the shed is to be placed. Our preferred and most common method of delivery is via truck and trailer if possible. Your structure is built at our factory and delivered to you nearly complete. There are distinct advantages to this: this method is minimally disruptive to both you and especially your neighbors, and it can generally be completed within an hour or two.
Preparing a site for a storage building requires careful planning, and is vital in ensuring the long life of your structure. Here's how to build a foundation for a shed that is both sturdy and allows for proper drainage of moisture. Do NOT place your shed on cinder blocks. While it is a cheap way to build a foundation, there will be some settling of your shed early on. This will cause your shed to sit unevenly, putting stress on the overall structure. It also is more difficult for us to deliver and place your shed, and the lack of a proper base voids our warranties.
Whether you're here in Lancaster County or elsewhere, Lapp Structures has a network of dealers nationwide that can help you start designing and building your DreamSpace today. Below we've listed some options to help you find the closest dealer to you. We can't wait to work with you! Many of our shed and greenhouse customers love to visit our factory and sales lot. Located just minutes from Lancaster, and less than a 90 minute drive from Harrisburg, Reading, York, Allentown and Philadelphia, our main location is open to the public.
At Lapp Structures, we have experience with working on commercial projects. We've designed and built commercial outdoor structures for a variety of customers in the Mid-Atlantic region, including general contractors, developers, landscapers, municipalities, schools, homeowner associations (HOAs), property management companies, and other small to medium sized businesses. We are geared towards small- to mid-sized outdoor structure projects and are able to complete them at a very competitive price point, while maintaining a high level of quality and service.
You want a shed built to last. That's our goal here at Lapp Structures. While our Amish built sheds might not be the cheapest you can find, the quality is far better than anything available at your local home improvement retailer. We focus on value and quality over price, which results in lower cost-of-ownership over the longer term. This is something that you just don't find from cookie cutter sheds at the big box retailers. They are mass produced, with little individual attention paid to each shed that's built.
