FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q .
How do I decide where to put my fi rewood rack?
A.
The key to a successful assembly is to make sure the shed will be square and level when built. The shed can
be assembled directly onto level ground (grass or dirt). If you have location options, choose one that is already
fl at, with good drainage to control moisture. If you don't have a fl at, well-drained area, you need to prepare the
space. Level the area using cinder blocks, concrete, crushed gravel or other sturdy materials. Once level with good
drainage, construct your base. Using a carpenter's level, make sure your base is level and free of bumps or ridges
to provide good support for your building.
Q.
What kind of base do I use?
A.
You can:
•Pour a concrete slab
•Build a wood deck/fl oor (use exterior-grade plywood)
•Use patio blocks
•Build on crushed gravel, dirt or grass
Q
.
How should I measure for my base?
A.
Firewood rack dimensions are provided in "nominal" size. Nominal sizes are roof-edge measurements rounded
to the nearest foot and are not the measurements to use for constructing the shed base. So, carefully check the
exact, recommended base size in the specifi cations for your shed model.
Note:
If you have to stop assembly for any reason before it is complete, do not leave your unfi nished
construction without fi rst temporarily anchoring the corners of the shed to your base and placing weights, such
as patio blocks or sandbags, on the fl oor frame.
Q.
Can the fi rewood rack be painted?
A.
The buildings can be painted with an exterior-grade paint designed for use on steel. Contact your local paint
supplier for recommendations.
Q.
I heard that rust might be an issue with steel; is it?
A.
While steel can rust, with proper care this should not be an issue. For a long-lasting fi nish, periodically clean
the exterior surface and apply spray-on car wax. Touch up scratches as soon as you notice them by immediately
cleaning the area with a wire brush or emery paper, washing it and applying touch-up paint. This will minimize rust
and maintain your shed's attractive appearance for years.
