BUILDING DIMENSIONS
- See Inside for Detailed Safety Information.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Safety precautions MUST be followed at all times throughout the construction of your Storette®!
- Care must be taken when handling various pieces of your Storette® since many contain sharp edges. Please wear work gloves, eye protection, and long sleeves when assembling or performing any maintenance on your Storette®.
- Practice caution with the tools being used in the assembly of your Storette®. Be especially familiar with the operation of all power tools.
- Keep children and pets away from the work site during construction. Do not allow children to help with assembly.
- Do NOT attempt to assemble your Storette® on a windy day. The large panels can catch the wind like a “sail”, causing them to be whipped around making construction difficult and unsafe.
- If possible, two people should work together to assemble your Storette®. This will make assembly faster and easier.
- Your Storette® needs to be anchored after assembly. The Storette® may be anchored to a deck or concrete patio using deck screws or concrete anchors. You may also anchor it to any flat, level surface. Alternatively, patio blocks may be used to anchor the Storette®. See the back page for more info.
Reading and following all steps carefully will help make assembly quicker and
easier. Before you begin assembly, be sure to confirm that all the parts for
your building are present using the checklist on pages 3 and 4. If parts are
missing, include the model number of your building and contact the retailer
where you purchased your Storette®.
Below is a list of things you will need to assemble your Storette®.
WHAT YOU NEED
- Work Gloves
- Safety Glasses
- No. 2 Phillips Screwdriver (Magnetic Tip Preferred)
- Pliers
RECOMMENDED TIME SAVERS
- Power Drill (Cordless, Variable Speed)
- Nut Driver or Wrench
- Awl (to align holes)
HARDWARE LIST
Confirm that all hardware and parts are present before attempting to assemble

Some Tips for Assembly
Whenever a crimped rib and a crimped rib meet, the crimped rib should be placed UNDER the crimped rib if possible.
ASSEMBLY BY KEY NO
ASSEMBLY
Exterior Care
For a long-lasting finish clean and wax the exterior surface. We recommend washing with a mild soap solution. Do NOT use power washing to clean your Storette®. Using a spray of automotive-type wax periodically on the exterior is highly recommended if you are in a high-humidity or coastal climate region. Combustibles and corrosives must be stored in air-tight containers designed for chemical and/or combustible storage. Corrosive chemicals such as fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides should be cleaned off the interior and exterior surfaces immediately. Rust caused by chemical damage is not covered by the warranty.
DO NOT STORE POOL CHEMICALS IN YOUR Storette® – THIS VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY
Rust protection precautions may help to stop rust from developing or stop it
quickly as soon as it appears.
-
Avoid nicking or scraping the coating surface, inside and out.
-
Use washers everywhere indicated in this manual to help prevent corrosion.
-
Keep the lid, base perimeter, and door tracks free of debris and leaves that may accumulate and retain moisture.
These can do double damage since they give off acid as they decay. Lubricate the door track as needed. -
Touch up scrapes or nicks and any area of visible rust as soon as possible. Make sure the surface is free of
moisture, oils, dirt, or grime, and then apply an even film of high-quality touch-up paint. -
Various paint manufacturers provide products for rust treatment and coverage. If surface rust does appear on your Storette® we recommend treating those areas as soon as possible, following the paint supplier of your choice instructions.
Please note the manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any consequences due to buildings that are not installed per these instructions, or for damage due to weather conditions or acts of God.
Anchoring Your Storette®
The entire floor frame MUST be securely anchored once the building is
erected.
Here are recommended ways of anchoring.
Anchoring into Wood/Post:
- Use 1/4″ (6 mm) Wood Screws. There are 1/4″ (6 mm) dia. holes provided in the frames for proper anchoring.
Anchoring into Concrete:
- For poured concrete slab or footing or patio blocks: Use 1/4″ x 2″ (6 mm x 51 mm) Lag Screws.
- For the Anchor Post of Concrete poured after the building is erected: Use 1/4″ x 6″ (6 mm x 152 mm) Lag Screws.
Keep these assembly instructions and the owner’s manual for future reference.
