Included Foundation Kit: These heavy-duty hot-dipped galvanised steel frame kits are the perfect base for your Duramax shed. Easy to assemble before you construct the shed. No need for a conventional concrete or slab base - just perfectly level ground. After the shed is fully erected and secured to the foundation kit, flood out the interior with concrete for a smooth floor or cover with moisture-resistant timber. A strong plastic sheet should be placed below the whole area covered by the foundation kit to prevent rising damp.

excellent kit, I followed instructions step by step and had few problems. job now done just have to get flooring.
Was daunting to start with as I had no Help but still managed. a 2nd person is a must and in my case I had problems with a few screws at the rear of shed as I only had 6 inches room behind shed to a rigid fence and as i used anchor bolts to secure the foundation kit I was unable to slid the whole unit forward. All in all, VERY SATISFIED.

Takes time and effort to put up but looks good in the end.
The order-to-delivery time was excellent, and the driver was very helpful, called 30 minutes before delivery, and then helped in getting the very heavy boxes into a secure area our end. I would agree with the other reviewer here in that it will take 8-10 hours for 2-3 competent people to construct. One reason for the length of time needed is down to the less-than-clear instructions which means that you will likely have to take some things apart again to turn things around. Another is the fact that the holes do not always line up correctly, or are hidden under plastic coating, making things very fiddly at times, or are extremely difficult to get the screws in at all. I was also short on the screws needed to secure the roof structure which left me on a panicked trip to the local hardware store. The instructions mention an "optional" final step of using silicone around the roof fittings - this for me isn't optional at these fittings were not tight and secure, and misaligned holes meant that some of the fittings didn't go in straight leaving gaps for the rain. The extension kit isn't great. The way it extends the metalwork is poor, sometimes confusing, and hard to align. In hindsight, I wouldn't have had this addition. A lot of time & effort was wasted due to the extension. The foundation kit seems a bit flimsy for the money - quite thin metal. Probably would avoid this if I bought another one. Now that it is all constructed though the shed appears to be solid and secure, and looks ok. Time will tell over the winter on how good it fairs against low temperatures, heavy wind & rain/snow though! It's still way too early to tell if I'd do it all again or pick a different shed though - a wooden shed is significantly easier to put up!

Duramax 8ft x5ft shed
Was told I couldn't have an afternoon delivery. So took time off work. It arrived at 2.30! Also other reviews said that it could be assembled in 3 hours by 1 person. I would suggest that you could only do this if you were an octopus! It took 3 of us approx 8 hours to achieve the finished product. However I am very pleased with the final result.

Susan Roberts Asked:
We have two metal sheds and want to replace them with this one due to getting mould in the winter. Will the plastic shed suffer from condensation in the winter or will I have to be insulated in some way?
We Replied:Dear Susan Thank you for your question. The reason you are getting mould is probably due to the shed base not having a permanent membrane. The same issue will occur with a plastic shed unless this issue is remedied.

Maria Asked:
Does this shed come with comprehensive assembly instructions which include written instructions as well as diagrams? Also, as I already have a concrete base from a previous shed, I assume it will be OK to use this?
We Replied:Dear Maria Thank you for your question. Yes, I can confirm this shed comes with instructions with diagrams. The concrete base that you already have would be fine to use. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Ellie Goodall

Do you deliver to the Isle of Man and, if so, could you let me have a quote for delivery.
We Replied:Dear Margaret Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, the manufacturers only deliver to mainland UK and not to the Isle of Man.

Paul Asked:
Can you just provide a bit more detail regarding the floor. I understand you provide a foundation kit but will this not only provide a skeleton grid type base that will need something else on top. I plan to lay a sound concrete base and the whole area is very enclosed, so not at risk from wind etc.
We Replied:Dear Paul Thank you for your questions. If you already have a solid concrete floor (use a damp proof membrane) you won't need a Foundation Kit. The shed is simply screwed into the concrete base then seal the base of the floor with a silicone sealant. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Nathan James Dodd

Martin Asked:
I have an alley at the side of my house which this shed will fit into perfectly. Unfortunately because of the walls I will need a door on the shorter 5ft side. I see that in some of the larger DuraMax products extra doors are available. Would it be possible to put such an extra door on the 5ft side of this shed? If so do you supply such doors? Or is it possible to construct this shed with the doors in the 5ft end?
We Replied:Dear Martin Thank you for your question. This product does not have an extra door. The only shed with the door on the small end is the Sidemate Shed: https://www.gardensite.co.uk/garden-sheds/duramax-all-weather-pvc-vinyl-4ft-wide-sidemate-shed.htm Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701.
