Plan Ahead
It is important to plan for a successful installation:
- Select a dry and calm day for installation. Do not attempt to assemble the shed in windy weather as it may cause damage to panels or result in personal injury.
- Avoid installing the shed on wet or muddy ground.
- Whenever possible, have two or more people work together to assemble the building. One person can position parts or panels while the other handles the fasteners and tools.
Site Selection
Consider the following when selecting a site for your shed:
- Avoid overhanging trees as leaves will require regular cleaning and broken branches can be a potential hazard.
- Small trees, bushes, or fences nearby can act as windbreaks.
Site Preparation
Before building the shed, ensure the site is properly prepared:
- The site must be level all around. Use a spirit level to checkfor levelness.
- The base can be constructed using treated timber or concrete to prevent moisture from getting into the shed. Avoid building the shed directly on a lawn.
- If using a concrete pad, ensure it slopes towards the edges to prevent water ingress. Allow sufficient time for the concrete or cement to dry before building the shed on top.
- Bases can also be constructed from bricks, blocks, or mounted on a concrete pad. Cement the bricks or blocks onto firm and level concrete footings, and drill and screw the greenhouse frame to the base.

PLAN AHEAD
Site Selection
- Avoid overhanging trees as much as possible as leaves will make regular cleaning necessary and broken branches are a potential hazard.
- Small trees, bushes, or fences nearby can be helpful, acting as a windbreak.
Site Preparation
- The site must be prepared so that the base of the shed is level all around and checking with a spirit level is required.
- The base can be constructed by treated timber or concrete, to stop moisture from getting into the shed. The shed is not designed to be built onto the lawn directly. Also, the ground will get muddy during rainy days.
- If a concrete pad is made,it is important that this slopes toward the edges to prevent water ingress.
- Time must be allowed for any concrete or cement to dry before building the shed on top.
- Bases can also be constructed from bricks, blocks, or mounted on a concrete pad.
- The bricks or blocks should be cemented onto firm and level concrete footings and the greenhouse frame drilled and screwed to the base.
IMPORTANT NOTES
- Find someone to help you: it is much easier with someone to hold parts, pass tools, etc. Also, some steps require two people to lift structures together. This is not very heavy work so would suit most able-bodied people.
- Allow plenty of time: rushing often causes errors and the re-doing of incorrect assemblies. If you have never built a shed before, it can take most of a day to carefully complete the construction.
- Have the right tools on hand.
- Safety clothing is recommended in the ‘Tools’ section.
- Ideally lat out the parts and check that all are present before commencing construction. Lay on cloths or plastic sheets if there is any risk of scratching the parts.
- Tighten all nuts carefully, being sure not to miss any. Check the frame is square and use a spirit level to check that it is upright.
