7. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your garden shed.
- Shed feels unstable: Ensure the shed is placed on a perfectly flat and stable surface. Check all bolts and screws for tightness. If necessary, anchor the shed to the ground (anchoring hardware not included) for added stability, especially in windy conditions.
- Water leakage: Verify that all roof panels are correctly installed and sealed. Check for any gaps or damage to the panels. Ensure the sloped roof is clear of debris that might impede water flow.
- Door not closing properly: Check if the shed is level. An uneven foundation can cause the door frame to warp slightly. Inspect hinges and the latch for any obstructions or damage.
- Difficulty during assembly: Refer back to the detailed assembly instructions provided with your product. Ensure you have the correct parts for each step. Remember that 2-3 people are recommended for assembly.
