BEFORE YOU START
TOOLS REQUIRED
COMPONENTS
Prior to installation, it is important that you contact your local government authority to determine if building
approval is required.
To ensure that the installation and erection of your Stratco Handi-MateTM Shed proceeds smoothly you
should confirm that all the components and materials listed on the delivery documentation and in this
installation guide have been supplied. Carefully read this installation guide to familiarise yourself with all
the steps involved, and ensure that you have the correct tools and equipment for the job. A free installation
video is on the web at www.stratco.com.au under the Garden Shed section.
NOTE: Use heavy gloves when handling steel sheeting and flashings and never attempt to install a shed in
windy conditions.

SITE AND ASSEMBLY PREPARATION
Preventing Wind Uplift
All Stratco Handi-MateTM Sheds must be securely bolted to a permanent concrete base with sufficient
masonry anchors to prevent wind uplift. It is particularly important that masonry anchors are placed
within all four corner brackets of the Handi-MateTM Shed. Further anchors and mounting brackets are
also used to fix the Hand-Mate Garden Shed to the permanent concrete base according to shed size. The
mounting brackets are to be evenly spaced along the length of the wall.
Stratco Handi-MateTM mounting bracket kits can be purchased at Stratco Home Improvement Stores.
Concrete Floor
Option 1 - Before building the shed, pour a base that is larger than the area by at least 200mm in each
direction. The base should be poured so the concrete that will be outside the shed floor area slopes away
from the shed to help prevent water from entering the shed.
Option 2 - Substantial concrete squares may be used at each anchor location as an alternative to a
complete concrete floor.
Important Notes
It is essential to clear and level the site prior to assembling your Stratco Handi-MateTM Shed.
Before starting to build the shed, please refer to the previous pages of this guide for a list of recommended
shed assembly tools and shed components.
Also note there are different types and colour screws. Ensure that the right type and colour screw is
being used at each location.
It is recommended to not walk on the roof. Should the roof need to be traversed, weight shall be kept
to the ridge support beam. Wear flat, rubber soled shoes and walk flat footed, spreading your weight as
close to the peak of HMRC1450GA as possible.
