A garden shed is a real asset when it comes to landscaping your outdoor space. It allows you to optimize your space by storing your tools, leisure equipment, and DIY gear.
By choosing a PVC garden shed, you benefit from a modern material that is weather-resistant and durable over time.
Choosing the right location for your garden shed
Before even opening your package, it is essential to think about the ideal location. This choice directly influences the longevity, stability, and ease of assembly of your shelter.
Avoid sources of moisture
Your shelter should not be installed too close:
- trees,
- of hedges,
- of vegetated areas capable of retaining moisture.
The proximity of roots can also destabilize the structure over time. A healthy, unobstructed location ensures greater durability for your construction.
Consider sun exposure
The orientation of your shelter also plays an important role:
- PVC shelters are highly resistant to UV rays, which is ideal if you want to enjoy natural light through the windows.
- If you store heat- or light-sensitive materials there, choose a more shaded location.
Avoid high-traffic areas
Install your shelter in a discreet, out-of-the-way spot in your garden. This will prevent it from getting in the way and preserve the harmony of your outdoor space.
Prepare the ground before installation
A stable, clean, and perfectly level floor
Good anchoring is essential for the stability of your garden shed. The ground must be:
- stable
- dish
- clean (free of stones and branches)
Is a concrete slab necessary?
To ensure the stability of your garden shed, we strongly recommend laying a concrete slab to ensure:
- strength
- sustainability
- security
An anchoring kit is provided with your purchase to reinforce the entire structure, hence the importance of having a solid support for its installation.
Successfully assembling your garden shed
Assembling Grosfillex PVC garden sheds is not complicated, but you should allow a good half day for installation. With the help of another person, you will find it easier to install the roof.
Follow the instructions strictly
Each shed has its own specific features. To avoid any mistakes, take the time to follow the instructions provided step by step. This will ensure that your shed is assembled correctly and can be used with confidence.
Make the most of your new space
Once you have chosen the location, prepared the ground, and completed the assembly, your garden shed is ready to become:
- a convenient storage space,
- a workshop area,
- or even a place dedicated to your hobbies.
All that's left to do is enjoy it!
