How to Frame a Corner in a Shed

By Home & Garden Last updated Friday, June/14/2024

1). Lift both of the walls into place. Ensure that the corner is aligned properly.
2). Attach each wall to the subfloor by screwing 3-inch construction screws through the bottom edge of the frames, using an electric drill. Place one screw every 16 inches.
3). Attach each wall to the ceiling by placing screws through the top of the frame into the header, working in 16-inch intervals.
4). Secure the two wall frames to one another by screwing through the join where the two frames meet. Place screws at 16 inch intervals.
5). Measure and cut a section of 2-inch by 4-inch (2x4) lumber to the same height as the studs in your wall frame, using a tape measure and circular saw.
6). Slide the 2x4 into place behind the shorter stud in your framed corner. This 2x4 will serve as a mounting surface for drywall during the finishing process.
7). Secure the 2x4 to the stud, placing construction screws every 16 inches.
