4. Setup and Assembly

The AECOJOY shed is designed for straightforward assembly. For a hassle-free setup, please follow these steps:

1. Preparation: Ensure you have a perfectly level surface for installation. A concrete pad or compacted decomposed granite is recommended. Gather all tools required, including screwdrivers, a drill with appropriate bits, a measuring tape, and a level.
2. Unpacking: Carefully unpack all components. Many pieces come with a protective plastic film; remove this film from the large tapered pieces before assembly.
3. Base Assembly: Lay out the base rails on your prepared surface. Ensure the base is square by measuring the diagonals. Anchor the base securely to the ground.
4. Wall Panel Installation: Attach the wall panels according to the detailed manual. Pay attention to the orientation of each piece.
5. Roof Assembly: Assemble the roof supports and panels. It is crucial to keep fasteners loose until all roof components are in place and aligned to allow for adjustments.
6. Door Installation: Install the hinged doors. Ensure they open and close smoothly. Adjust hinges if necessary for proper alignment.
7. Final Checks: Once assembled, double-check all screws and connections for tightness. Apply exterior silicone around the base if desired for additional waterproofing.

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your AECOJOY storage shed:

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the exterior and interior of the shed with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the galvanized coating.
