Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during assembly or use, refer to the following common solutions:

• Parts Not Aligning: Ensure the shed is assembled on a perfectly flat and level surface. Slight adjustments to the base or panels during initial assembly can resolve alignment issues. Do not overtighten screws until all panels are in place.
• Sharp Edges: Always wear protective gloves. If you encounter any burrs or sharp edges, carefully file them down or use appropriate protective measures.
• Door Sticking: Check the door tracks for any debris or obstructions. Clean the tracks and ensure the door rollers are properly seated. Lubricate with a silicone-based spray if needed.
• Water Leakage: Ensure all screws are tightened and all panels are properly overlapped as per the assembly instructions. Check for any gaps and seal with outdoor-grade sealant if necessary. Ensure the shed is on a raised, level foundation.
