• Read instructions thoroughly prior to assembly.
This kit contains parts that can be damaged if assembled incorrectly or in the wrong sequence.

A Care Instructions
• Hot items, such as recently used grills, blowtorches, etc., must not be stored in the shed.
• Heavy articles should not be leaned against the walls, as this may cause panel distortion
and permanent damage.
• Keep roof clean of snow and leaves.
• Your product is made of materials that will withstand outdoor use. Exposure to the elements
(such as dust, plant and animal life, moisture and sunlight) encourages moss, algae, and
mold to grow on outdoor items. To maintain the look of your product, we recommend clean-
ing it each year with mild soap and water. DO NOT use bleach, ammonia, or other caustic
cleaners, and DO NOT use stiff bristle brushes. Failure to perform annual cleaning could
result in permanent staining of the plastic. This is not a manufacturing defect and is not
covered under warranty.
A Assembly Day Tips
• Complete site preparation and foundation construction before unpacking parts and
beginning assembly.
• DO NOT attempt to assemble on a day with strong winds.
• DO NOT attempt to assemble on days when temperature is below 32 degrees.
• Set aside appropriate amount of time to completely assemble shed.
• Make sure you have assistance nearby to lift and secure parts in place.
• Wear light duty work gloves while assembling shed.
• Once roof is assembled, a flashlight may be of use when assembling smaller
components inside shed.
• DO NOT use a power drill to tighten provided Easy Bolts. Use 010210410 EZ Bolt Easy
Driver tool ( provided) ONLY.
• Suncast provides extra hardware for small fasteners for customer convenience. In some
cases, there will be extra small fasteners once the assembly is complete.
Note: This product contains parts that are used in different orientations to construct the shed. Please take note of the
orientation of the parts shown throughout this instruction manual. Failure to follow instructions could result in damage to
parts. Suncast is not responsible for replacing parts lost or damaged due to incorrect assembly.

Site Preparation and Platform Construction
Materials NOT supplied with Shed Kit
Important:
• Site preparation is required for this shed. Placing the shed on a properly constructed, square,
flat and level foundation, as described below, is required. Without a properly constructed,
square, flat and level foundation, settling will eventually occur, causing distortion and damage
to the shed. Suncast is not responsible for replacing parts damaged or property lost due to
incorrect foundation construction. Warranty requires a properly constructed foundation as
described below.
• Complete the site preparation and foundation construction before unpacking parts and
beginning assembly. For tips on site preparation, go to www.suncast.com, consult retailer,
or local codes.
Site Preparation
1. Consult your local authorities for building codes and covenants before beginning foundation or erecting shed.
2. Before any digging, check with local utilities to determine location of buried cables, pipes, etc.
3. Decide which type of foundation is most suitable for your installation. The foundation surface must be square, flat and level.
Follow the below guidelines for foundation options:
Concrete Slab
• Construct a slab of at least 4" thickness.
• The use of reinforcement bar is recommended.
Wood Platform
• Use exterior grade wood.
• Set the wood platform on pier blocks or footing.
4. Complete the foundation preparations as follows:
• A vapor barrier may be applied over the foundation to prevent excessive condensation in the shed.
Follow local building codes for a proper vapor barrier.
• The ground should slope away from the foundation area to provide drainage.
Anchoring the Floor Panels to the Foundation
• Shed floor panels include flattened areas where anchors or lag screws are to be secured.
These flat areas must be drilled through prior to securing the floor panels to the foundation.
Concrete Slab
• Secure shed to concrete slab using 3/8" masonry anchors
with 1" washers. Masonry anchors and 1" washers are avail-
able at most local hardware retailers. 8 masonry anchors
are required for the Suncast BMS6511 Shed.
Anchor section example
Wood Platform
• Secure shed to wood platform using 1/4" - 3/8" x 3" lag screws
with 1" washers. Lag screws and 1" washers are available at
most local hardware retailers. 8 lag screws are required for
the Suncast BMS6511 Shed.
Note: Shed floor fastening locations are designed to align with
the under- structure layout. Be sure the front of the base panels
are oriented correctly on the platform to ensure lag bolts
engage with the under- structure.
" Dimensions allow for shed to fit within the nearest 1" on each side.

Door Pre- Assembly
If window film is present, peel film from both sides of
window ( I).
Lay left door ( N) on flat ground with window screw
attachments facing up. Place window gasket ( B) into door
channel, then place window ( I). Cut excess gasket length.
Through backside of door, secure layers with thirteen
screws ( LL)— start with four corner screws and then finish
with remaining screws. DO NOT over tighten screws.
Repeat on right door ( M).
Note: The cut portion of window gasket ( B) MUST be
assembled on top of door channel.
At top interior side of left door, attach D- ring slide bolt ( P)
with four screws ( LL) through provided holes.
At bottom interior side of left door, attach D- ring slide bolt
(P) with four screws ( LL) through provided holes.
13

Header Pre- Assembly
Insert header beam ( V) into header ( K). Attach using six
screws ( LL). DO NOT over tighten screws.
Lay front header ( K) on ground with lettering facing up.
Place vent screen ( U) into rear opening in front header ( K).
Secure through back of header with eight screws ( LL).
DO NOT over tighten screws.
Slide roof ridge beam bracket ( S) under tabs on inside
peak of front header ( K) and secure with two screws ( LL).
DO NOT over tighten screws.
Repeat steps 4-6 for rear header ( L).
14

Truss Pre- Assembly
Attach truss bracket ( W) to end of one truss leg ( Y) with
1" hex bolt ( GG) and nut ( HH). REPEAT WITH OTHER
TRUSS LEG.
Note: Make sure side hole is at other end, as shown in
step 8.
Attach truss cross beam ( Z) to two truss legs ( Y) using two
hex bolts ( FF) and two nuts ( HH). Stand truss and check
cross beam is level.
15

Truss Pre- Assembly ( continued)
Place side adaptor bracket ( BB) at end of left truss leg ( Y).
Secure adaptor bracket with one 2" hex bolt ( FF) and one
nut ( HH). Repeat for remaining side adaptor bracket ( BB).
Note: DO NOT over tighten side adaptor bracket ( BB) onto
end of truss leg ( Y). Roof panels will assemble to truss legs
(Y) in later step. After shed assembly is completed, check
that all hardware is securely fastened.
Place skylight gasket ( DDD) into skylight ( CCC). Place sky-
light ( CCC) onto right roof panel ( 0). Secure from under-
side with eight screws ( LL). Make sure rib on roof panel is
seated fully against gasket on skylight.
Repeat for remaining roof panels.
16

Shed Assembly/Walls
Critical: When installing corners,
flex corner hinges back and forth
several times. This will help provide
a square corner and ensure proper
fit of remaining panels.
Important: DO NOT flex in reverse
position, as this can crack the panel.
Push front floor ( A) and rear floor ( C) panels together and
secure with four screws ( LL).
Note: Refer to pages 9 and 10 to secure floors to
foundation.
