Would it be safe to sleep in a garden shed/treehouse at night?
In my backyard I’m thinking about building buying a garden shed mini cabin to sleep in on some summer nights. The shed would be in the backyard. One concern I have is someone breaking in late at night while inside. The shed I’m looking at buying has wood floors, small windows and a wood panel door. The door is a solid woodfinish on the inside and outside. The door has a handle instead of a doornob. This means the only way to lock the door is with a padlock either on the outside or on the indside.
The shed/mini cabin has woodfinish walls inside. I would be concerned about someone breaking one of the windows at night to break in.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
This would just be a place to sleep maybe at the most once a week.
To make myself feel more comfortable I would want to paint the walls and paint the inside of the door colors that I enjoy.
I would put an airmatress on the floor an
I don’t have a tree to put a treehouse on
The area where I live is safe. The garden shed mini cabin has a rustic cabin feel. The garden shed/cabin has no electricity and I would be able to hear the birds in the morning.
I would not worry about not being safe if you live in a low crime area. You will be just as safe outside as you would inside.
it sounds great to me! I always hear the birds in the AM cuz I feed & water them! My computer is at a window & I put birdseed on the deck fence to watch them closely then I have bird feeders & bird baths at the windows; the birdbaths I picked up were not expensive; 1 from Walmart $8 & another from Winco $12; you put rocks in the "stem" of it to prevent it from being knocked over; but I am sure you would be safe there at night; if unsure, have a friend be with you!
Wether it’s safe or not depend on your neightborood i guess, but it sound like a fun idea.
You said sleep outside. then you say it is an enclosed room.
Is the place you live in that unsafe that you cannot sleep under the stars. live some where else if you are that unsafe.
Live alittle sleep outside.
