Just put together the 4x6 version of this shed last night. This video along with the instructions made this a pretty easy job. I was afraid the roof was going to be trouble but only took about 30 minutes of the entire job. Total time took about 3 hours working on it by myself. The unit is much sturdier than I thought it would be for the price. Only issue is the door sticks a bit. I plan on hitting it up today with some caulk to help keep bees and rain out
Hi, you have simplified this a lot. I had a few problems but the worst is I can’t get the roof on. I put one side one and try the other and it all just pops out again. I resorted to screwing the roof on at the door side to try to get some anchorage to get the other sides in place but I just cant get it on. What do you think the problem is?
Saw the video - thought, yeah no problem. Should have read the comments about the roof first. Figured out that olive oil makes the panels fit together nicely, without too much swearing - but that roof. Oh Keter, attaching it to the shed is a bloody nightmare. The instructions just say pop it on with the spatula provided. If anyone has any tips about the roof, please let me know.
@@davidprice775 Olive oil is a must. I had a, surprisingly strong, 80-year old woman* pulling down each corner, while I was inside tagging with a few screws. And a flat surface you can move around on. But it needs patience. Also - brush up on some colourful swear words to brighten your mood. But be careful if you intend to anchor the shed down. It's easy to split the corners. *It was lockdown so my choices were limited.
Took me 3 hours to put up. Worst part by far was trying to get the self-drilling screws in. Why oh why don’t Keter pre-drill the aluminium strips and use self tapping screws. Worst part by far, the rest was far more straight forward, even the roof was simpler!! 😊
Just put one together, without breaking into a sweat, took 2,5 hours. Follow instructions, and an extra hand here or there to hold it in place. Not too much of a problem, roof mounting needs a bit of patience
I bought one. The video makes it look simble, but it is not. The video glosses over the points where you actually assemble pieces that are hard to put together and skips to where the pieces are already together. Additionally, if it is off by any, that roof is the devil to get on. Finally it is quite flimsy. I am a 5'5" 56 year old female and I can easily move the assembled shed from place to place by myself with no equipment. The worse part is that the flimsy white plastic trim pieces were bent and made it very difficult to insert the side panels, even using the spatula provided. Half way through the assembly, I debated sitting it on the curb for garbage pick-up. I would gladly return it, if I didn't have to remove all of the screws or try to put it into a box to return. One good point... we had tornados with high wind advisories last night and it didn't fall apart. I had it wedged against my gazebo, which may have helped. aa
Hi I’m also around your age and pretty good at DIY, but this was a pig. The roof is a nightmare. I had to get it built before weather turned so the roof is just screwed in on one side because it just wouldn’t go on, then a gale blew up. Luckily it was enough to keep it safe. Im determined to finish it though by hook or by crook, hopefully not a crook!
If you live in uk or any other countries thats raining and damp half the year dont waste ya time with plastic sheds, all winter you have condesation dripping from inside of roof soaking everything inside it, just had to dry mine inside again, basically every 2 weeks 1 litre of water, sheet over items was covered with water had to empty it all off so tools will rust, wood or cardboard will be damp, need a dehumidifier running in them all winter if you want to store anything
I wouldn’t put my tools or anything remotely expensive in this plastic box lol. I was going to buy one thinking it looked good in the pictures but seeing this video and how crap it is I won’t bother! I
There are good youtube videos that show how to anchor a small shed to a larger structure....they show to put a 2by4 horizontally on the main structure and then devise a way to attach the smaller shed, either using cord or wood that stretches from one to the other, etc
I would like to know this too so I can order some at the same time as ordering the shed. It's an important part of the build but sadly lacking in any of these videos.
Do not take any notice of this video as it is misleading, i am a cabinet maker with 45 years experience and it took me 4 hours to put together. You also need a rubber mallet, the panels do not slide in to the corner pieces easily and the roof is a nightmare to put on, release the top screws from the corner pieces so you can push out the framework to fit the roof channels. If you have a look at one assembled in B & Q then notice they have not been able to put the roof on.
Hi, I'm from Mexico and I have a question, I want one, but I don't need it for the tool or these things, I want it for a little room of practice, I play the saxophone, so I need to know if this can absorb the sound? (Sorry for the bad English amigo) I hope you can answer me bro. Great video. Greetings from Mexico. 👍😎
I find assembling stuff FUN and easy. This stressed me out SO MUCH. The instructions were poorly written and incredibly confusing. Worst item I’ve ever assembled .
Just put together the same shed today, very helpful video much appreciated for making it easier 👍🏻

The roof problem brought me to this video. Still isn't on.

Extra tools needed:
1. Another cordless drill to drill pilot holes
2. A mallet
3. Silicon spray

Can you change which side you put the door hinges on?

Can the door opening be on the right side? Thanks
Can you tell me the dimensions of the box it arrives in please?
bloody good video, excellent explanation and easy to follow ,thank you very much. mine is much bigger ,here goes.
I just did this today, took me about 4 hours cos I have a basic drill haha. Very helpful video though
My shed I'm struggling with the roof as my main roof parts the black bits are two separate bit of plastic so rain can get through
Can I dismantle this shed and where can I get the instructions for it thanks
Maybe I'm missing something, but I can get the S10b self-driving screws thru the metal door frames. Hope someone can help with this part?

I plan to anchor this small shed to our larger shed
Hah! It took the two of us EIGHT hours! And then I had to buy some mesh to go over the air ducts, to keep spiders out.
How wide is the door opening please?
This helped me out so much. Thank you

how can I fx it in the garden? What to do against the wind?

I also have 2 similar boxes for outside, on the terrace. The are great. Good luck with the channel.
My floor keeps coming out of the grooves in the front and side. How can I fix this? Thank you
Make sure that it’s on a level surface and put more screws in to secure it
Throw it away and get something decent
What anchor bolt are recommend for for 4x3 shed keter do not explain this
I would like to know this too so I can order some at the same time as ordering the shed. It's an important part of the build but sadly lacking in any of these videos.
Easy instructions lol I wouldn’t be here if they were. The pictures in the manual are different then the parts you receive
Can build a more sturdy one with pallette wood.

I will be tackling this job myself in the near future, I hear the roof is a challenge!
@@casinodelonge let me know how you get on
How much should I charge to assemble the shed?
Were having the same problems with the roof its driving us bloody mad
@@caralight7176 Unscrew the corner and then attach the roof then put the corners back on that’s what I did today

No it wont. Its pretty flimsy material too so id save your money
I also play the saxophone and I want one of these too but idk yet :/
Easy for one Woman too!

Not showing how you get the roof on in detail makes this video pointless
It’s impossible to watch the video!
does condensation build up in these sheds, is the floor and roof insulated to any extent?
I think the vent helps
