@LifetimeProductsAssembly
@LifetimeProductsAssembly 3 ай бұрын
There is a visual I.D. of every part in the manual, and some of the larger pieces have measurements associated with them. Each part is not labeled individually since stickers would increase manufacturing costs, which would raise the sales price. This is why we recommend having the assembly manual on hand as you watch the video and complete the build.
@NeilWinters580

@@LifetimeProductsAssemblyThis video wouldn’t be needed if you had properly labeled parts, and “cost cutting” is no excuse not to put $1 worth of plain white printed stickers on there. You can have machines do it, or just pay a guy $20/hr to put stickers on parts, it would take less than an hour. Then you can raise the cost of these things by $25 and you just made $4 more for each one, and hired someone at a livable wage while you did it, and you raised the price by a negligible amount. Stickers aren’t expensive, this company is either cost cutting to give investors and the ceo more pay, or is flat broke and can’t even afford stickers. Either way I’m recommending everyone to stay away from lifetime products until they can label things instead of making me watch a video to build a plastic shed.

I am a 5'2" grandma and due to circumstances beyond my control, I had to put this shed up completely by myself. It took me almost week and the shutters still aren't on, but it's really a great shed and I am very happy with it. Very well engineered. I got this one as a coop for my growing flock of guineas and would absolutely buy another one for the garden stuff that's taking over the shop. Happy building!

49:19 so much easier to build by using this video. Took two of us about ten hours. It does require some muscle especially with the roof. Definitely bring a mallet because some holes don’t align with plastic, but some hits with the malette do the job. I’m a few cases we had to drill holes when the existing holes didn’t quite match. A concrete slab is highly recommended . Naturally he makes it look easier than it is, but it’s not a bad process. You will need your helper almost all the time.

i'm having a concern over the roof caps. When securing the screws that screw them together(not to the truss). We realized after that the screws went right through to the other side(outer roof). We are concerned now that rain will be able to get into these holes. When we went up on a ladder it appears they went through on every one of the roof caps. We confirmed we were using the proper ADZ screws

This video is VERY good and helpful....but there are details in the process, that could be just mentioned. Putting this together was NOT like a breeze. We are very good with tools and DIY projects of all kinds. The floor was troublesome and required 3 of us to push and hold.... the walls, didn't just fall in place, the roof.... we had to make things work. What I mean is... that how it looks in this video..... is NOT the experience we had! LOL By the way, one of the floor ends was defective (did not align with nothing and was 1/2 inch short)... and it took 3 weeks to receive a replacement, 4 phone calls and they even canceled the request for the defective panel! Mine is taking more than 6 hours to complete. This video is outstanding, but I'm amazed at how easily things go together here and in real life is NOT a breeze. Overall.....looks very pretty, but I would have made it with wood much faster and cheaper.

Dont expect the assembly will go easy like this video. The alignment piece to piece is not this accurate. U have to wiggle thinga around, push & pull really hard to fit in. I am at step 9 20s now and the door to the roof front is really dont fit well, my wife and I are struggling our asses off.

Sorry to hear that you are having a hard time with the assembly process. There can be a couple of reasons as to why you have a gap in between your door and the gable but it is hard to determine with out pictures. Would you be willing to email images to customercare@lifetime.com? Please also include your model number and product ID of the shed.

You can build it on the grass, but the final product needs to be set on a wooden or cement foundation. Failure to do so will cause future issues with the shed.

There is a lot of design errors with this shed. Many of the screws are too short and do not grab. But the biggest is the plastic cups that the door rods sit in. In the video they go in no problem. Well, because he's building it on a concrete floor. If you are placing this shed on ANYTHING other than concrete pads (either tile or a whole pad) it WILL NOT WORK. I laid a compacted base for the shed to sit on. When you pound the door rods in, those cups the rods sit in just sinks into the ground. Now it is virtually impossible to ever set the door correctly. Also, the curved gable end above the door, it doesn't fasten to anything! Also extremely hard to get set. (Unless you are building it on a nice, level concrete pad. Also because of the above issue, the rods not properly placed.

@@missmiller7829 Agreed. I found the gable above the door just couldn’t all meet up. Again it deals with those rods so Hmmmm? But I finally had to just let it go. I grabbed some screws from the hardware store for the roof panels. But beware (!) to long and you’ll go right through the roof. Ask be how I know. Lifetime replied to me pretty much saying you should have known to build it on a solid base so it’s not our problem. Interesting how their instructions say that at #11 and not 1. I knew to gave a level base to begin with, but a complete framed AND paneled base? Come on.

I had so many issues and it stemmed from not an insanely perfect level base. The biggest being the doors and the gable not reaching. Close the doors and put a bolt or something through your lock holes. Run a ratchet strap/tie down around the doors and walls going through the windows. Pull them tight to get the gable to reach the roof rails Once you’re there you can mallet down the gable and begin tightening everything. Hope this makes sense and helps. I did this one on my own, and had to get creative with straps to get things to line up nicely.

TOTALLY AGREE! I have a 20 year old lifetime 12 x 8 foot shed that has been torn down and put up in 3 different places. The 12 footer even had a tree fall on it and it barely bent it! This shed was a nightmare. Every section of construction was difficult. A year later and the doors still don't line up.
