Setup and Assembly
Assembly of the ShelterLogic Garage requires careful attention to detail. It is recommended that at least two adults participate in the assembly process. Refer to the detailed assembly guide included in your product packaging for step-by-step instructions and diagrams.
- Site Selection: Choose a level area free from obstructions and with good drainage. Ensure adequate space around the shelter for assembly and future access.
- Unpack Components: Carefully unpack all parts and verify against the parts list provided in your separate assembly guide.
- Assemble Frame: Connect the steel frame components using the bolt-together hardware. Pay close attention to the orientation of each piece. The ShelterLock stabilizer blocks should be correctly positioned at each rib connection.
- Install Cover: Drape the polyethylene cover over the assembled frame. Ensure it is centered and aligned properly.
- Tension Cover: Use the Ratchet Tite tension system and easy-glide sliding cross rails to pull the cover taut and smooth. This is crucial for weather resistance and product longevity.
- Anchor Shelter: Securely anchor the shelter to the ground using the universal foot plates and appropriate anchoring hardware (not always included, check your specific package). Proper anchoring is critical for stability, especially in windy conditions.

Operating Instructions
Once assembled, the ShelterLogic Garage provides a protected space for vehicles, equipment, or storage.
- Access: The shelter typically features roll-up doors or end panels for vehicle and equipment access. Operate these carefully to avoid damage to the cover material.
- Ventilation: If equipped with vents, ensure they are clear to allow for air circulation and reduce condensation.
- Snow and Ice Removal: In areas with heavy snowfall, regularly remove snow and ice from the cover to prevent structural damage. Do not use sharp tools that could puncture the fabric.
- Wind Management: In anticipation of high winds, ensure all anchors are secure and the cover is tightly tensioned. Consider additional anchoring if extreme weather is expected.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Cover is loose or flapping. | Insufficient tension; anchors are loose. | Re-tension the cover using the Ratchet Tite system. Check and tighten all ground anchors. |
| Water pooling on cover. | Improper tensioning; frame distortion. | Ensure the cover is taut and smooth. Inspect the frame for any bends or damage that might create low spots. |
| Frame appears unstable. | Loose bolts; inadequate anchoring. | Check and tighten all bolt-together hardware. Verify that ground anchors are fully secured. |
