WARNINGS & NOTICES

4
PLATFORM CONSTRUCTION
1
• You must provide a platform on which to assemble your shed. Proper building permit documentation may be
required in your neighborhood. Consult all local building codes prior to assembling the shed. Before beginning
assembly, you must pour or construct a platform. There are two types:
• Concrete
• Wood Frame
Select the type, but know the surface must be leveled and flat before installation. If the surface is not properly leveled and
flat, the shed will not assemble correctly. Proper surface leveling will save you time in the long run, so please do not ignore
this step. We recommend a Concrete platform. It will be the most durable and long-lasting choice. The platform you choose must be built above
ground in order to avoid water pooling inside the shed. All lumber must be rated for outdoor use!

• The concrete should be approximately 4" (10,2 cm) thick. The actual dimensions of the shed, at its widest
and longest points, are 84" x 84" (2,13 m x 2,13 m). Ensure you select a site that will accommodate these
measurements. The floor dimensions are a bit smaller than those of the roof; therefore, you will need to builld a level surface of 81
1/2" x 83 3/8" (2,07 m 2,12 m).
