- I built a Shelterlogic Shed-in-a-Box alone, but I ran into problems with the instructions, which require two people and a ladder...until I figured out an easier way.

Thank you for taking the time out by making this video, very well explained. I have one of the units too and had it for a while but never put it up. After watching this, now I’m excited to actually build it…lol.
Thank you for saving this old lady putting this up!
Thanks! I just got mine over the weekend and so glad you made this video because I will also be assembling alone.
Tank you very much! I am a girl just on a Camping place, YOUR Video help me so much. THE IN STRUCTION inside the Box were horrible. Have always a god time
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Your right do not follow the instruction.. This was an absolute headache & it was me & my husband putting it together🤦🏽♀️
geeez can’t believe you kept going in the snow ! my canvas made it 6 years. just bought a shelter logic replacement canvas, only not in the mood today lol
Hey just put mine together today for my motorcycle the stray cats were pissing on my cover so I'm putting it in here instead and I solod the build and your tip to work top down was very helpful
Great idea. Remember to add another tarp on top, since the tarp is subject to deterioration from UV rays. Plenty of other TH-cam videos show you how to secure the top, but you seem like a guy who can figure it out. Consider adding strength to the “rafters” so the roof will hold snow until you can brush it off. I used galvanized pipe leftover from a chain link fence job. I installed mine at right angles 1/3 down from the peak of the roof. This reinforcement, plus adding another tarp should extend the life of your shelter.
Thanks buddy, me and and my old lady's gramdpa are putting this box of bull crap together now. Boy were we puzzled when we got to the tarps lol not so much me as much as him lol but I just listen to him so we're all happy. If you catch my drift. We're both tying a couple off so we're having a fun time lol he's a good old man. We got the ratchet straps backwards lol need to get that right. We're bout done with it. This video helped out a lot. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your video! I am going to buy such a tent for my "new" car: a Volkswagen built in 1979 😊
Viele liebe Grüße
from Heidelberg/Germany
Thank you for this. Helped tremendously.
Thank you so much for doing this video saved me $400 not having to rent a lift...
Thanks for taking the time to film this, very helpful😊 Cheers from Vancouver 🇨🇦
Did mine by myself not difficult after watch your video. Thanks!!
Thanks for the clip, it gave me confidence that I can do it alone and not have to hire a helper. And it makes glad I live in Fl. I left Ct in 1983. It's crazy you could do that build without gloves.
Video is going to make my life a lot easier, thanks!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. It really helped me out.
I just want to say THANK YOU for making this video. I followed the way you did it and only needed help putting on the roof. Thanks Again.
Glad it helped
Also for more stability and UV protection I purchased a 20x10 (dark gray) sail shade that I will add to the roof top down and anchor it. I have noticed the material doesn’t break down as easily from UV exposure. Just an idea, time will tell if it pays off.
Thanks for the video, I’m putting up a 10 x 20 x 8 shed in a box by myself. Your tips helped alot.😊
Thank you- I am setting mine up this week and you gave me some great tips!
Thank you for your assistance. It looked like the poles at the ends threaded through the seams but your video helped clear that up. Nice job. I was also concerned about the snow living in So. Idaho. Have to wait it out and see now that most of the heavy snow season is over.😊
I put my first section on the ground, then brought over the second section and put them together, on the ground, then the next. I still have to do the canvas, that is the hardest part, which is why I am watching your video. Thanks.
I used duct tape to secure the front/back tarp around the the poles to ratchet strap them down. Great job. I definitely should have put the anchors last. I’m still building it but thanks for the tips
Thanks for putting this up, my 10 x 10 was going well until I got to the part where you pull the canvas around the front and rear frame, in the instructions it makes it look as though you have to slide the legs up into the strap sleeve, I don't know why they couldn't just print on the page next to it "do not slide the leg into the strap sleeve, we understand the picture is garbage, so don't do it.
Also good idea having extra rachet straps to really anchor it down, cheers from sunny England 👍
It's pretty straight forward... LOL
Thank you for the extensive info on the installation. Very helpful.
I actually did the same thing and put the bottom half on . I thought you needed the two people to put the canvas on .That’s all I need to do for mine to be done.So I will use my ladder for that .Thank you for showing how you do that.
Thanks, I should've started with your video than with these instructions!
Man! I wish I had watched this first. I'm working alone too. T
The way the frame wobbled initially was a real concern. I'm setting mine up on rocky shale so I can't use those long 'auger' type stakes. Got something else in mind. Am also using a pick and shovel to level the spot. Fantastic video my friend.
Regards, Graeme from Brisbane Australia.
What did you use instead of the anger style anchors? I'm going to have the same issue with rocky ground.
Thank you for this video mostly how you can do this 2 person job alone. I did just as you said and left off the lower legs. I also wrapped the top cover on before lifting it up. Mine is narrow 6ft and longer 12ft but still wasn't that difficult to add the legs. Tomorrow I will square everything up and figure out a way to secure it to my concrete pad. Thanks again
Thank you for the information. I gotta say, this looks like a much bigger pain in the ass than my plastic greenhouse.
Very Helpful especially when no one wants to help for free
Good thorough instructional. Thank you.
Brilliant idea ! You Sir, are my kindred spirit, and I thank you. "I don't feel like dragging the ladder out here"....lmao (that's me) 🤣 ! Your idea is great and made my 10x10 setup a breeze. Any problem if I forward this video to ShelterLogic's mfg engineering dept ? 🤔 They should pay you a consultant's fee.......
This will help me. I’m going to build a 20 foot shelter for the truck by myself. Mom and 12 year old daughter this month. I’ll use your tips thanks!!!!❤
I did mine alone for my truck. In fact, I used my truck toi stand in while putting the roof on. Better, and safer, than a ladder.
Very nice job!!!!❤
thanks for the video, great dog btw
Here after seeing the bolts aren’t unlabeled in one package and 3/4 of the tubing isn’t labeled either. 😭 I know there’s a guide and count so I can lay it all out…but man that’s a time consuming step I didn’t want to take when already pressed for time
Took a long time to separate and label the different bolt sizes. I swear they only differed by a few threads! 😊
Wow! Thank you so much, it seems more intuitive adding the lower legs after the top part is assembled.
Perfect video. Much appreciated
Very helpful thanks
I followed some great advice to keep connections from loosening later. I got some 1/4x20 Nylok nuts and replaced the ones that came with the tent. It's funny how a 1/4x20 nut needs a 7/16 socket to tighten it. Amazon had a box of 60 for under $7.00.
Looks great, thx for sharing^ :)
This is so helpful because yes the instructions suuuccckkkkkkkk
Great video brother👍. Looking to purchase this for my new mower.
what an excellent and helpful video THANK YOU. Please give an update soon, hopefully with pictures to show if sagging occurred or what your snow loads were like. did you get nylok nuts i have compression washers and hand and they ought to do the same thing, eh
I can say the same thing about the Harbor Freight 10 x 17. If you follow the instructions, you will be taking it apart before you can put it all the way together. Yup those polls need to go through the cover FIRST. You won't take it all apart, but I really don't like doing stuff twice.
How is it going?-interesting job~fellow!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video! So how easy is it to open and close the door?
Also I don't have ground to use the stakes.. how can I make other adjustments for staking it down on concrete? Can I stretch cables thru it to reach some of my grass?
Mine held pretty well from winter and storms had it for a couple years then a tree went through it
were the anchors included in the kit? and how has it held up during winter?
Did you need to cut the stitching to insert the PVC tube into the bottom end for the door and back? I purchased the roll up door kit for this but I do need to keep the rear of the tent secure. I have a tent I didnt do this to and regretted it.
Have you come across any methods for reinforcing the roof of this for heavy snow?
how heavy duty is this, as I live in a Doblo alot, i have a tent thing that goes on the back, its a drive on , drive off, but is to light weight, no good in high winds, many thanks Keith
Thanks for the guidance. I am not good at this stuff. Your video "sped up" the steps I needed the most help on, but you gave me a basic game plan. Is your shed still standing or pushing up daisies?
for the snow or rain load, did you ever have to reinforce the top frame?
Great video with awesome tips. How’d it hold up during the winter?
Excellent, was helpful. I found this video because I was searching for help on one particular issue. The «shoulders», item 801204, can be mounted in two different ways. Mounted one way, the tent becomes higher and narrower, the other way the tent becomes wider and shorter. There is no indication in the user manual on how to mount these small bendt metal tubes. Not that I can find.
Having watched your video several times, stopped playback, and looked carefully, it seems like you have mounted these items with the longer part pointing down.
So I will go for that, I am about to assemble exactly the same product.
Great job in showing us your method of assembeling it without ladders, but I was more interested in how the ratches work and to feed the lines through them but your body was in the road when filming
They're ratchet straps. th-cam.com/video/uZlkIOHOkNo/w-d-xo.html
Huge problem I have, the slots for the poles are really tight. Whoever ran the sewing machine was probably late for lunch. I made a guide plug to help ease the tubes through
Very helpful video! I purchased a, like new, one of these from an auction for $20 but with NO instructions.🤦♂️ What I really want to know is, how do you spell "wofferjawl" and where does the expression come from? In 58 years I've never heard that in the Pacific Northwest but i cant wait for the opportunity to use it.😂🤭
I always interpreted it as "Wopper-jawed" I hear a lot of Canadian guys say it.
@@LowDoughTech thank you so much! This is now officially in my vocabulary along with kerfuffle!🤭
Crap! I wish I had seen this before I embarked on my construction!!!
Can you put the roofing on before placing the legs on also?.
He said he considered it but the top cover was really heavy and it would be difficult.
Only one thing wrong with these. They get destroyed by UV of the SUN. Mine lasted 2 years and just shreaded after that. Frame is great covering not so much.
That's good to know! Buyers beware!
ours collapse with any wind the bars are not strong and that "tarps" tear very easily We are so dissapointed
👏👏👏😊
No instructions came in box how can I get printed directions ?
ShelterLogic’s website?
This video contains Dog.
🐕😂
You should have put the inner bracing poles in before you put the cover over the shed. I don't think that your "easy to assemble" quotes are appropriate. If you've already put 10 of these sheds together, then yes, it's probably easy. " FOLKS, IT AIN'T THAT EASY"
This was my first. It was easy.
The box and instructions say 2 guys 1.5 hours +/-. Yeah, maybe the two guys who have already assembled 50 of them for display purposes at Home Depot. Otherwise it's + 2 days not hours. No one would watch a "how to" video 48 hours long. Just find a friend who has nothing to do for two days and follow the instructions. There is no magic method. It's not difficult, just time consuming and boring. Consider my comment my "how to" video.
All total, I did it in about 5-6 hours alone but it was spread over 2 days because of weather.
