- Does it need a foundation?
- Yes. A level, solid base such as a concrete slab or a framed platform is needed. A shed this size on bare ground or grass will shift and the doors will stop lining up.
- Can it stay up through winter and wind?
- The metal is weatherproof, but a large, light structure catches wind. Anchor it to its base and clear snow off the roof so panels are not overloaded.
- Is it lockable?
- The doors take a padlock, which is not included. That secures the doors, but the panels themselves are thin metal, so it deters casual access rather than stopping a determined break-in.
- How does it compare with a resin shed?
- Metal gives more strength per panel and a larger open interior for the footprint. Resin does not rust or dent and stays cooler, but it is bulkier to ship and can crack in extreme cold.
- What can I store in it?
- Riding mowers, bicycles, ladders, patio furniture and long-handled tools fit through the double doors. Store fuel and chemicals per local rules, and keep the interior ventilated in summer.
- Does it come with a floor?
- The shed is a panel structure, so plan your own floor or slab. A raised wooden floor keeps tools off damp ground.
