se ing. If neither is available, use a hand screwdriv
er. If a hand screwdriver is all you hav
e, take
several breaks… your wrist will need it!
• You will also need two small step ladders (when it comes time to do the roof
!), a 7/16” wrench
and a 3/8” wrench.
• The small wood block in your shed box is there for a reason. DO NOT THROW THE WOOD
BLOCK AWAY, it is necessary for a
aching the wall panels to the
fl
oor.
• Read through the entire instruction manual and “Construction Tips” insert before y
ou start.
It’s always a great practice to get a feel for the
fl
ow of the process and to familiarize y
ourself with
the parts involved. But, try not to get ahead of y
ourself and start the process out of order
.
•
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN ORDER!
Everything goes together in a certain order
,
and we have learned what that correct order should be. In our state-of-the-art research and
testing facility, we have painstakingly created these instructions. The order of construction is
there for a reason, and some parts simply will not
fi
t if built out of order. Just follow along with
the order in the instructions and ev
erything will
fi
t together and things will go very smooth.
• Refer to the color “Construction Tips” insert for the trickier construction spots. W
e have
identi
fi
ed a few places during construction where it can get a bit tricky
, that is why we included
the color insert. This full-color instruction extra w
as created to be er guide you through the
process. Use it and you will be a much happier Outdoor Storage Shed builder
.

YOUR SHED MUST BE BUILT ON A LEVEL SURF
ACE!
If the spot you have chosen to place
your wonderful new Outdoor Storage Shed is not lev
el, the shed will not assemble correctly!
We recommend a level cement or patio style surface. Y
our shed is meant to last a long time, so
provide the proper foundation for it before y
ou start to build.
• Before you build it, make sure y
ou are allowed to build it! Consult all building codes, as w
ell
as city and county ordinances, to ensure that y
ou do not require a building permit to construct
your Outdoor Storage Shed. Proper building permit documentation may be required in y
our
neighborhood, and it would be quite unfortunate to learn this a
er your Outdoor Storage Shed is
already built!
Now that you’re ready to begin the construction of y
our wonderful new Outdoor Storage
Shed, step back, take a deep breath, get y
ourself a large cold beverage and enjoy y
ourself. We
guarantee that a er spending the right amount of time in building y
our shed, you will be able to
enjoy it for years to come.
Thanks for choosing Lifetime
®
Outdoor Storage, and have fun!
