6.3 General Use

• Distribute weight evenly when storing heavy items or vehicles inside.
• Avoid leaning heavy objects against the interior walls of the shed.
• Keep the interior and exterior of the shed clear of excessive snow or debris to prevent structural strain.

7. Maintenance

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

• Cleaning: Wash the exterior panels periodically with mild soap and water to remove dirt and grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the powder coating.
• Door Tracks: Keep roll-up door tracks clean and free of debris. Lubricate moving parts with a silicone-based spray lubricant annually or as needed for smooth operation.
• Anchors and Fasteners: Periodically check all anchors and fasteners for tightness. Re-tighten any loose bolts or screws to maintain structural integrity.
• Rust Inspection: Although galvanized and powder-coated, inspect for any signs of rust, especially in areas where the coating might be scratched or damaged. Touch up with appropriate rust-inhibiting paint if necessary.
• Snow Removal: In areas with heavy snowfall, remove accumulated snow from the roof to prevent excessive load, even though the shed is rated for 35 PSF snow load.
