Large shed as in a pole building? A non residential building is depreciated over 39 years.  Since this is the building you are working in, it sounds like it is more than JUST a shed. This means you would enter it as an asset that is a building.

 

As for security cameras and alarms, those things would be expensed. Those are not improvements.  Improvements would increase the life of the building, like a roof or deck.
