5. Operating Instructions

Using your Domi storage shed is straightforward. Follow these guidelines for optimal performance and longevity:

• Opening and Closing Doors: The double doors swing open 180 degrees. Always open and close them gently to prevent damage to hinges or panels. Ensure they latch securely when closed.
• Locking the Shed: For security, use a padlock (not included) through the designated holes on the door handles. Always secure the shed when not in use, especially if storing valuable items.
• Ventilation: The integrated air vents are designed to provide continuous airflow. Do not block these vents, as proper ventilation helps prevent moisture buildup and maintains the condition of stored items.
• Weight Distribution: When storing heavy items, distribute the weight evenly across the floor. Avoid concentrating heavy loads in one area.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your Domi storage shed for many years.

• Cleaning: Clean the shed periodically with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the resin material. Rinse thoroughly with water.
• Inspect Annually: Annually inspect the shed for any signs of wear or damage. Check all screws, bolts, and connections to ensure they are tight.
• Door and Hinge Check: Ensure doors open and close smoothly. Lubricate hinges if necessary with a silicone-based spray.
• Clear Gutters: If equipped with rain gutters, ensure they are clear of debris to allow for proper water drainage.
• Snow Removal: While the roof is designed to withstand snow loads, heavy or prolonged snow accumulation should be removed to prevent excessive stress on the structure.
