First I inventoried all parts. I set up two portable tables in the garage and reassembled all the main parts. I used this video and the instructions. I took time to make sure the assembled parts were oriented correctly. I had a concrete slab to install the shed. I set up all panels against my garage wall in the order of assembly. The walls went in pretty straight. When joining two panels, I clamped the top of both pieces with a quick release clamp. On several panels. I used a 6’ 1x4 at the seem and clamped it on top. It helped when the screwing in the lower quick screws. I then installed all side support rales. I installed the three part header on a work Ben h and attached all the small brackets making sure they were not installed right to the rail. Pay attention to the three pieces. Make sure the open rail isn’t the bottom and the two end oblong bolt holes at the bottom. I then installed the center support and all roof cross members. All bolts were left loose until
The roof panels went on. Started with the right, center, then, left. I should have installed the right first, left second and center last. The left side was tricky. I had my neighbor hold down the back left panel while I tapped the front with a wood block and dimmer mallet. I screwed all back top and front roof sections, then tightened all the bolts, screws and then screwed off all other components. I did most the install myself and used a helper for the reassembled parts. Overall I spent about 7 hours.
My dad and I just finished assembling the Suncast 7 x 10 barn door shed. Overall, I’m gonna give it four out of five stars. The directions could’ve been more clear but we got it done in about 10 hours total, start to finish. I was actually very impressed with the quality and the ease of assembly. I’m 55 years old retired contractor, my father’s 83 years old and between the two of us we got it done pretty easily. We did install a few things backwards or upside down, because the directions weren’t clear, they could have more zoom in blowups of the fine detail on how to install certain things. we installed it on a roughly level concrete slab that had a few high spots and low spots so we had to shim up the floor here and there, but I was really impressed on how easily the assembly went.
😮😮😅😅 3:38 o
It took 8 hours but I did it myself. The key is to watch this and one more assembly video, I found the paper instructions not as helpful.
The most difficult part is figuring out the metal support beams bc none of them are labeled. That's where you want to watch one other guy's tutorial (30 min.) just to identify what they look like and where they go.
Do not use a screw driver or wrench. Get an impact drill even if you return it for your sanity. You need a 7/16" socket, and the same size ratcheting wrench to hold the other sides (11mm works fits as well).
You definitely need a 2nd person for PARTS but 90% you can do solo. A 2nd set of hands to steady and brace the walls as you connect them, and again for the roof.
And wear gloves when you're sliding the side-wall metal beams into the sides!!!
You got it. Don't pay someone to do it, you can do this.
Bought it at Costco for $1,499.99 plus tax and tbh I’m really satisfied with it! It wasn’t that bad of a build. My father in law and I managed to build it in about 6 hours, the instructions included were a little tricky but this video helped a lot. Definitely worth it, and using those black storage bins that Costco also sells is like perfection! I recommend using a drill for some parts, a ratchet, and a measuring tape to make sure you’re using the right metal pieces since they’re not marked. I see comments somewhat complaining about the roof, but if you have 2 ladders and maybe a 3rd person, then it is super easy! 8/10 on the build and 9/10 on the quality! Respect to the guys that did this alone thoe.
Would this have been a easier build if u did the pre assemble before u get the help . I plan on doing the pre assembled the night before I start putting it together Myself
Thanks for video make my installation easier 👍👍👍
I started to put up one of these today. When I began putting up the walls, it was beginning to get a little windy which shut down the process immediately. I was trying to do this by myself and the wind made it impossible. It's not stable until the walls are up and the roof supports are installed. Pick a calm day!
To the guy who claims he did this in 3.5 hours you're either lying, trolling, or have experience putting together a Suncast shed like this before. Most of us are putting this type of shed together for the very first time. There is no freaking way you went step by step with the instruction manual and this video, like 95% of us did- and can claim this was a piece of cake and the rest of us are morons. There were so many little things that add up to just a complete nightmare. The biggest insult to me was the section for the roof panels that claim 5 minutes to install. It took me an eternity to get these panels on because they wouldn't line up perfectly square with each other. Also the fact that most of these parts are not labeled but the manual references them by letter is absolutely ridiculous. In the end, I have a very good looking, spacious shed that was one of the worst decisions of do-it-yourself that I've ever made in my life.
First time ever building this model from them though I build Lifetime brand sheds for people all the time. I always tell people I can build the Lifetime sheds about 5x faster than they could because I have everything memorized and don’t need to look at the instructions. Most 8x10s from lifetime take me less than 2 hours so I knew this would take longer because I knew I’d have to watch this video and look at the instructions to build it. Took 3.5 hours never having done it before. I’ve learned that when plastic sheds are having parts not line up right it’s because the foundation isn’t level. The most time consuming part was the gables because of the gaskets and putting all the screws in. Roofs didn’t have labels because they’re all the same and doesn’t matter which one goes first…
😭😭😭
Nor he was trolling
Nor he had experience
He is Just a frolic magician!🤫🤣🤣🤣🤣
I thought I was an idiot but NOPE it’s not me then, I can’t get these roof panels to align any tips?
Ditto The manual sucks. Video is helping. Had no time to complete last weekend. Will finish today hopefully.
Video was very helpful… finished roughly in 7 hrs… by myself…
@suncastchannel what do you recommend setting the frame on instead of directly on to the ground?
Worked with Suncast Customer Support and they did not resolve my assembly issues. Their response was there is no defects in the materials... Thank-you for your purchase and goodbye.
Any tips to get the last roof panel to snap in? The front of it snaps in but somehow the rear of the roof panel is too far left when looking from the door. It is jammed against the center panel as tight as it can but it's not even close. The right and center panels seem properly aligned at the front and back so I don't see how I can make it fit.
I loosened the brackets on the back left side and had a friend hold down the back panel while I tapped the front of the left roof with a block of wood and rubber mallet. I then went inside and screwed the back upper screws while my neighbor put downward pressure on the back left roof panel.
Can anyone who has put one of these 7x10’ sheds together comment on how difficult it would be to install in a tight space?
We would like to install with sides up against house and fence where I have just over 10’ between house and fence - is it possible?
The wooden platform measurements don't add up to 130" they add up to 128.325". So I guess I have to open the box and get the floor panels and line up the holes? Great!
Yeah, I found the same problem - after I built the platform. The indentations where the lag bolts are supposed to go don’t line up either. The spacing for them is 37.75” O.C, and the spacing on the platform plans is 35.75 O.C. But that doesn’t really matter at this point because they didn’t include the door guide - STEP 1 - in any of the unlabeled boxes. So. Much. Fun.
Are concrete screws supplied, to anchor to a concrete pad?
Nope!
Door part is wrong so far is mislabeled n is the driver not the bolt pp is the bolt . And a heads up . Bolt jj for the floor is in the window kit and so is the driver and pp bolt for the door is also in the window kit . This would be a lot easier if the bags were better labeled and in the door kit instead .
This thing was a nightmare to install.
To start with i got two french install manuals, and one in Spanish.
Only thing that was labeled were the panels.
Non of the brackets,screws, or bolts.
Talking about bracket half of the pre drilled holes for the screws didn't line up.
Overall it's a great looking shed.
But get ready to spend at least a whole day cursing your ass off while installing it.
I think i’ve created new cuss words while putting this together 😅
@@blazablaza I’m relying on the tried and true ones so far….
How was the roof installation. Did you have any issue lining up the tabs on the side and sliding into place?
@@tonydeantonydeanI’m having a hell of a time with the roof panel. I got the panel to line up in front, but the tabs don’t line up in the back. I can’t get the roof panel to slide completely over the wall tabs, so they don’t go back far enough to be in the proper place to screw in. Getting any help from Suncast is a joke.
@@fueyou I know. Mine still isn’t all the way lined up like it should be. I just did the best I could with it and it works.
Just finished this with my 15 year old son it’s a bitch.. there parts in boxes so really you need to open all boxes pay attention to which parts came from which box etc. yes there is some issues with “warping” and there a slight gaps in the roof. But it’s a solid shed just poor instructions on the video and the paper work. It took maybe 4 half days. Sitting in it right now. Hopefully the 1599 my wife and I paid is worth it. Cuz I ain’t returning this thing to Costco.
It’s heavy ! I iust use pavers as the base because I don’t have the time to lay a slab. Nor do I wanna make a wooden platform for it to rot in a few years
My mother just bought one for her house. I went to pick it up from Costco on my own(heavy). She was quoted $650 to have it assembled. In your opinion, you think she should return it and look for another one, pay the assembly or I should put it up on my own (I’m not much of a handy man/ new to putting stuff together).
For the guy who claims he built this shed in 3.5 hours.... probably living in his mom's basement. I've built over 30 of these as a private contractor installer for Costco with a team of 2 other men, and it takes us 7 hours.
Any tips to get the last roof panel to snap in? The front of it snaps in but somehow the rear of the roof panel is too far left when looking from the door. It is jammed against the center panel as tight as it can but it's not even close. The right and center panels seem properly aligned at the front and back so I don't see how I can make it fit.
@@JustinP123sometimes you have to lift one of the opposite corners and slightly twist the shed to get the last roof panel to snap into place. Gonna have to try each corner at various heights to see what works for you.
Anybody know how many boxes it comes in? Will I be able to fit this in my Honda Crv? thanks
mine was 2 boxes delivered by freight carrier, the boxes measure 49 1/2" wide by 89 1/2" long.
No will not fit in your crv i had hard time fitting it in my 2010 tacoma w/6ft bed
Lmfaooo id love to see that vid of you trying😂 to
Had to pack it in the back of my ram 1500 with the my tailgate open it comes in 2 boxes (1 of 2 and 2 of 2) not sure how much it weighs but I’d say around or a little less then 1000 lbs not sure on the capability of your Honda crv but that’s a lot of eight for your roof an may not fit in your trunk you may be able to use a trailer if your car can haul one plus the additional weight from A to B
Best bet it’s to ask a friend that has a full size or a truck and trailer other choice would be freight services
Fit in my 2019 colorado with tailgate down
the holes in parts DD , W, Z are SOOO misaligned, it’s impossible to fit the screw “FF” through it 😡😡😡😡
time stamp @ 11:35
my mistake, i was not sliding it in correctly. onto the next step
The outlook is great but the installation is so much headache. It looks so easy from
Video or manual. In reality The big panels deform and accumulated stack up tolerances from so many parts makes the screw holes supposed to be aligned between panels NOT align at all and the panels interface to each other. After 2-3 weekend We’ve use our all energy and patience to put all ceiling panels on but no way to screw the ceiling to the side panel as the design screw holes all Mis-aligned and no way to push them
Together. This is a waste of ~2000 bucks. mission impossible. If I could choose one more
Time, Do not buy it.
I second this, the panels are deformed and there’s was literally no way to align many of the areas. My roof may have gaps that will allow rain in for this reason. Very frustrating for such an expensive shed.
I agree…..a regrettable purchase.
I agree, I was unable to align the roof panels to the side walls. Customer Service was useless.
Can the barn door be installed on either side?
I have this shed, and no, it can only be installed as shown.
I don't know why they design the sheds like this. Who would want the roof sloped backwards, likely onto people's houses? Every time it rains, water will splash against the house and cause a mud puddle.
@@mct8888 I'm putting mine up against my fence...so having the roof this way is perfect for my spot.
@@mct8888for snow not to build up and put weight on the roof it’s actually a great design and natural light to come up top soo nice
Not sure why everyone is complaining about the assembly.. chances are they had an unlevel surface is why the holes don’t line up. Suncast sheds are so easy to put together. This one took 3.5 hours by myself and their 6x5 modernist took me 1.5 hours with no issues
BS
@@gregklein3657 if you’ve got questions let me know and maybe I can help. First time building this shed but I specialize in the Lifetime brand sheds and have found that most bad reviews about all plastic sheds are things don’t line up and that’s because people don’t have a level surface. If you do, everything should line up. Most lifetime sheds take me less than 2 hours because I have everything memorized but I had to look at the instructions and watch the video for this and the worst part was unboxing all the pieces and doing the gables because the gaskets are so time consuming.
@@gregklein3657 took some Timelapse videos but haven’t done anything with them maybe I will upload it to help people out and share my tips
Are you going to post the video like you said? I would like to have some help
You can’t say how easy it is if you do this for a living!!! Common man!!!
DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY. And don’t expect any real help from Suncast.
Agreed, DO NOT BUY THIS! There's about 500 screws and you'll have to invest more $$$$$ into a concrete slab or making a framed base. Leave this where you bought it. It's not even worth $100.
