We built this DIY Arrow Yardsaver Shed in 8 hours. We picked it up from Lowes for $290. We needed cheap extra storage for all of our tools that are currently in the garage. This project was thought to be simple, but ended up almost being more than we could chew for 1 day!
** We apologize for the audio bugs, we're working with new sound gear and will have it fixed by the next video :) **
We want our videos to be short, enjoyable, and informative. Please let us know if you have any questions!

You 2 build that like with no problem wow! Me and my wife had such a hard time. If it wasn’t for your video we probably would still be doing it 3 days later lol..🤣 thank you very much we really appreciate your help!🤙 God Bless you always.🙏🏻
Two hearts ♥️ ❤️ one for the shed video and another one for the Blondie.
Thank you for the video and tips! We needed it.
Thanks for the Straight to the point video. Concise and informative 👍
@ 2:28 cute! Gotta have fun while working! ☺☺
putting the shed together right now. Thanks for the video. We didn't understand where the foam tape went.
Very informative and appreciated!
Thank you!
Thank you for the upload! Great job!! Cute couple! ☺☺
An excellent how-to-video, congratulations! My quandary are the cross members for the doors; they are positioned X-d over each other atop that door latch frame, so i guess I have to squish them down to comply with the directions.? I agree with the comments about the metal being flimsy as the screws strip out so very fast; I have pop-riveted (so far) 2 of the X members, and will most probably do the same with others. Thank you. Harry :0)
Thank you for this helpful video I'm in the process of assembling one for a neighbor
At this point I'm assuming its done xD... sorry for the delay, I hope it was easier then when I did it haha
Thank you very much for this video….makes my project way easy ……it took me half of the time …👍🏽👍🏽👊🏽👊🏽
Thanks! I wasn’t sure how and where to apply the foam tape
What power tools do you guys use? Asking for a friend who needs to start doing stuff like this...but it’s me I’m the friend
We put together the 4x10 shed over 2 days and it was a PIA. Nothing really difficult, but a millions screws, sometimes stuff didnt line up perfectly which cost us time. Many times after you insert screws you then have to back them out to add another piece, I had to drill my own holes on the center roof panel support beam. I am 100% sure we did everything correctly, but those holes were not close to lining up. Definitely need to wear gloves for some of the stuff as that sheet metal will slice your hands up. It is not possible for 1 person to assemble the 4x10 shed, so dont even try.
Yeah it was a pain 🤣🤣 good to hear you're done with it though!
We’re you able to get the side supports to fit in the slots on the floor frame? The holes line up on the sheet metal with the side support but they aren’t lining up with the slots on the floor frame.
We didn't have any issues with anything not lining up, but if you wanted to send a photo to tramopolis@gmail.com we could take a look and see if we could give you some direction
I’m having the same issue, what ended up being the issue?
My suggestion would be to loosing any fastened screws, that way you have more play to line everything up. Hope this helps :)
That was a fun video! Thanks for making it, I was curious about this particular style shed.
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for convincing me to DIY my own shed, rather than a kit!
She can build my shed any time.
I'm a lucky man.
@@BrocAndAimee You bloody well are! Great team.
Great Job. 7 hours I wont handle it. MY hubby will be snapping every single minute!
It’s always great to have someone else do it hha
I would love to see how you organized the inside. I just built mine this weekend and I am trying to figure how to attach a hanging system.
Yeah, well you are better than us, we've just laid things in there xD
Honestly how durable are these sheds? Thin sheet metal a slight push in the door and you get inside. Padlock means nothing.
I’m in the fence between this or resin shed. Ideally custom build with wood and metal door but time and cost are a factor.
So we live in San Diego, which is not to crazy as far as weather goes. It’s held up great
Do you know of the doors could be inverted???
On the X part on the doors... did they lined up for you at the center?
I bluid Egypt pyramid for love
I was wondering if this can be built by one person? I just ordered one
Thanks guys.
But I just decided to go with a different one lol
I am a one man force so it will be very complicated for me 🤣.... Great job thought
Trust me, we get it haha
Do you need to use the wood platform if I already have a concrete base ?
No you don't have to use a wood platform. With concrete all you do different is attached the shed with concrete screws. Hope this helps!
Your video has been a life saver! Thank you for posting it! Wondering if you could answer a question about the cross members on the doors. I'm having trouble getting those to fit together properly. Any hints/ricks/tips?
Hey I am so sorry for the delay, I was deployed for about 10 months and I’m just seeing this. I did still want to reply to let you know I saw your question.
The doors were tricky but we found success by making sure the foundation was square. After that we just adjusted the height.
Again I am so sorry this is 11 months late.
@@BrocAndAimee No worries, thanks for getting back with me! Thanks for your service, btw. After a lot of sweating and swearing at it...I think I was able to pull the cross member where it needed to go and ended up having to use a pop rivet on it. :)
I love your videos...but for some reason the sound was really off...the music was so much louder than your voices so I could here what you were saying but I gather from you expression at the end it was a loooong day! 🇬🇧🙋🏻♀️💕
Hey! We’re checking into that. Thank you for letting us know 😊 hopefully we can figure out what it was so we don’t do that again. Sorry!!!
Where do I get the shed.
Do ur doors flush with each other?
Yes our doors close flush, we kind of have to give one a little push to make it close completely though
Can I put a door at each end ?
Hey Bryant, if you wanted to do that you would have to order another door. The set up comes with only one door. Hope this helps!
Does it have any ventilation?
Hey, no it doesn't.
Great video!
I am actually going to put this same shed together tomorrow.
Have a buddy coming to help thank goodness. I am going to use a smaller foundation.
4' x 7'4" will it fit?
Also, did the weather strip come with the shed? I haven't opened the box yet. 😄
Hi Richard! Once fully assembled the shed is 49" wide and 80" long, with a base of only 4' you might be cutting it kind of close. And yes the weather strips came with the shed, hope this helps!
@@BrocAndAimee Thanks. Going to go with it. I'll let you know how it turns out!
What a project my swear jar filled twice over
We agree ha
It’s to bad Rubbermaid doesn’t make a sideshed
There so easy to put together. Duramax makes one but it’s a project that takes hours
My Rubbermaid shed large size I bought used dismantling it moving it and sitting back up was a breeze
What she’s did you buy?
Hi, it's an Arrow Yardsaver Shed.
Hi
When its empty is it easy to move it if you had too?
Yes but I would attach it to a movable platform, that way if you move it you won't bend the frame.
Wow that was a great time laps good job guys. What did this shed cost ??
And how is it holding up ? Thinking of getting one next week
Hey thanks Ariel! The shed was $400 and it's still solid. No issues
Thank you for getting back to me. This shed is going to be a great space for my motorcycle.
$400 is not bad and it’s crazy but since I left this question all I see on CZcams advertising is the same shed for $99
Which makes no sense to me how that’s so cheap ? I would leave a picture of the ad but I can’t add pictures to this response
Are the holes pre-drilled?
Hey Anthony! Yes all the holes that we sent the screws through were pre-drilled by the manufacturer. Hope this helps!
Do you guys have a link to the shed??
amzn.to/3h1fgMg
Here's a link for amazon, but they have it at Home Depot and Lowe's too!
The CDX board you used for the bottom. Did you just use 1 full sheet or did you cut 2 of them to length. I cant find it bigger than 4x8 and it needs to be 51" wide right?
We actually cut 2 strips at 7.5" off the short (4') end (so we had two 48"x7.5") and used those to make up the extra couple of inches. We could do this since the board is 96" long and we only needed it 81" long. Hope this helps! (And makes sense, we can email a photo if you need! tramopolis@gmail.com)
I have the 4x10 shed coming in a day or 2 and it is going into a space that is 5ft wide. I would have to take down part of a fence to put the shed together where it will permanently stay. Is it possible to build it and then carry it 10 ft to its final spot? or would it be too heavy?
Two people could definitely move it no problem. It's actually pretty lightweight in comparison to other sheds. We don't live in a windy area but if you do it's recommended to get shed anchors (long ground screws you attach to the shed so it doesn't move) or at least drill it to whatever base you use.
Galvanized steel.
I can’t figure out where to put the seal. As described, wouldn’t it cover the holes?
Hey Jerry, just wanting to make sure I understand your question. Are you talking about the tape on the edges of the roof?
@Let’s Wing It yes. I went for it, just put it on the very edge
Your shed isn't aluminium, it's very thin mild steel which has been galvanised before being epoxy coated, except for the frame which is galvanised but not coated with epoxy afterwards.
These structures can suffer from condensation, which can drip onto and damage contents.
Thanks for the information, good to know!
updates on this??
The shed held up great. If you have a lot of stuff I would consider getting something a little bigger.
Is this shed the left door or right door build? I want to build mine very similar to yours, but the door will be on the other side.
This is a left door build. Let us know if you have any other questions along the way!
@@BrocAndAimee hey! Is the door reverseable? Meaning, can you just install the wall with the door on the other side?
@@gregruth151 yes
I hope that plastic under the sand was perforated
It was actually Vigoro WeedBlock weed barrier! :) Thankfully it has micro channels that allow for water and nutrient drainage into the soil beneath, but stops any weeds from growing 👍
Looks okay for $200, but Amazon says it's $400. Doesn't look worth $400.
The music on your video is so loud we can't hear what you say
Thanks for the heads up, we didn't realize that until a while after we posted it. Since then we have done better on mixing the audio. Thanks!
Just bought this shed. I want to be single again I guess. 16 years, 2 kids so I guess we had a good run but this will apparently be the breaking point! Never should have married an attorney.
😒🤪😂😢🤬🤕
Haha I'm sure you will crush it!
Way too fast. I could not see which piece goes where
Sorry for that, I'll keep that in mind moving forward.
Looks like a nightmare to build. The denting and damage of siding wasn’t impressive. But nice job building. Product just looks flimsy and cheap for the price
Yeah, I'll never do it again. The shed is cheap, so you pay for what you get ya know
Fun video... Useless for helping someone repeat the project. Speed/lack of good angles/zoom... Issues and fixes?... But good for a...hey, I did something vid.
