• A level and sturdy foundation is required before shed construction can begin. Site preparation information is available on later in this manual. A foundation that differs from the specifications described within this manual could prevent proper assembly and may damage parts.
• Read instructions thoroughly prior to assembly. This kit contains parts that can be damaged if assembled incorrectly or in the wrong sequence.
• Please follow instructions. Suncast is not responsible for replacing parts lost or damaged due to incorrect assembly.
• Check for all parts before you begin assembly. Using the provided parts check list, verify that you have all the parts required to construct your shed model. COMPLETE SITE PREPARATION AND FOUNDATION CONSTRUCTION BEFORE UNPACKING ALL PARTS.

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.

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.

Wood Platform

• Use exterior grade wood.
• Set the wood platform on pier blocks or footing.

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 available at most local hardware retailers. 4 masonry anchors are required for the Suncast BMS6312 Shed.

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. 4 lag screws are required for the Suncast BMS6312 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 .

Wood platform critical spacing

• Check all critical spacing measurements.
