IMPORTANT NOTE

It is curbside delivery. Although our trailers and carriers most often come with liftgates to unload your shed, there might be certain factors such as terrain, road clearance, or the weight of the pallet being too heavy for the liftgate to unload which might prevent that from doing so. We highly encourage you to have 2-3 people ready on the day of the delivery to manually unload the pieces on the pallet one by one. Each individual piece would weigh around 1-100 lbs. so it is manageable to have one person on the trailer carry down the piece and the other receives it from the curb.

FEATURES:

• Durable, solid construction: The Amish-crafted gable shed kit is designed for long-term use with 16” on-center wall studs and durable LP siding paneling treated to resist fungal decay and insect infestation.

• Design features: 5/12 Roof Pitch and All sheds come standard with 2 gable vents to help regulate temperature and air flow inside the shed. 

CUSTOMER PROVIDES:

• Shingles
• Drip Edge
• Paint
• Floor (if the building is not purchased with a floor kit)
• If you will be preparing a cement/concrete slab, it would have to be exactly the same size as the unit. If the concrete slab is larger then you would have to trim the 3” skirt that falls below the bottom plate that is designed to wrap around the flooring.

The above items can easily be purchased by the customer at a local hardware store.

Optional floor kit:

• 5/8″ plywood Flooring material
• 2×4 treated floor joists – 16” O.C
• Treated 4×4 runners included
• The floor size should be exactly the same size as the building
• Should you wish to purchase the 12×24 Floor Kit please contact us to get a shipping quote.

If You’re Building your own floor

• To build your own floor, the size of the floor will need to be the exact size of the shed
• We recommend a crushed stone base 1 wider on either side of the shed
• The siding overlaps the side of the wood floor roughly 3″ and there is no moisture barrier. You can put this on a cement slab or wood floor – but accommodate this.
• You can retrofit for this but we do not provide instructions for this.

Do I need a Floor Kit? This depends on your preference. If you are not getting a floor kit from us, you can either build your own floor or create a cement slab for your shed. Please take note that it should be exactly the same size as the shed.

(If you are using a slab as the floor then it needs to be the exact size of the building. If it’s used as a foundation, then you can have it in any size.)

Additional Info:

Base: We recommend a crushed stone base, 1 foot wider than the building on all sides.
