5. Operating Instructions

Using your KETER Excellence Resin Storage Shed is straightforward. Follow these guidelines for optimal use:

• Opening/Closing Doors: Gently pull the door handle to open. Push firmly to close, ensuring the latch engages securely.
• Loading Shelves: Distribute items evenly across the shelves. Place heavier items on lower shelves for stability. Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity per shelf.
• Security: If your shed includes a padlock-ready feature, use a padlock (not included) to secure the contents.
• Ventilation: Periodically open the doors on dry days to allow for air circulation, especially if storing items that may generate moisture.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your storage shed.

• Cleaning: Clean the shed periodically with a mild soap and water solution. Use a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or stiff brushes, which can damage the resin surface. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Inspection: Annually inspect all connections, screws, and hinges for tightness and wear. Tighten any loose fasteners.
• Drainage: Ensure the area around the shed is clear of debris to allow for proper water drainage.
• Winter Care (for outdoor use): While waterproof, heavy snow accumulation on the roof should be cleared to prevent excessive weight.
• UV Protection: Although made from UV-resistant resin, prolonged exposure to intense sunlight may cause slight fading over many years.
