Learn How to Match Your Shed Colors
Carefully selecting colors for your shed can dramatically enhance its appearance. Cherokee Structures offers numerous beautiful color combinations to ensure your shed complements your style perfectly. Let’s explore how to choose the right colors. You’ll need to consider these:

MAIN COLOR
This is the dominant color of the shed’s siding. Choose lighter colors for an airy look, or darker tones for elegance and contrast. You can choose between a paint or urethane coating. Both are high quality low maintenance options.
Paint | Urethane | |
Cost | ✅ Included | ⬆️ Upgrade |
Appearance | Bright and classic colors | Wood grain look |
Warranty | 10-Year No-Fade Guarantee/25-Year Adhesion | 5-Year No-Fade Guarantee/15-Year Adhesion Promise |
Strengths | Resists cracking and pealing | Hard and durable |
TRIM COLOR
Select from all the paint colors. This is the color that offsets the main color. It is always an option to match the main color and accent the main color with an accent color on the doors or shutters.
ROOF COLOR
A very common strategy to integrate your roof color into the design is to match the trim color to the roof color. It is also an opportunity to offset some colors. Contrast can add visual interest but the roof color should generally not stand out and call attention to itself.
Metal | Shingle | Crinkle | |
Cost | ✅ Included | ⬆️ Upgrade | ⬆️ Upgrade |
Appearance | Glossy, clean lines | Dimensional varied look | Textured, matte finish |

ACCENT COLOR
This color can be skipped in many cases to avoid making a busy looking design. Don’t underestimate the power of this extra color though. It can make your project stand out from the rest. Select any of our standard paint or urethane colors for your doors or shutters.
