Welcome to Bears Workshop. In this video we are going to go over our install of the ShelterLogic garage in a box 12x20x8. We did do a follow up video where we upgrade the cover on this to a polyvinyl material.

Those two holes are for bungee straps that hold the "door" open. Also there's a sleeve along the bottom of the "Door" and that's for a metal or pvc pipe to slide into making it much easier to roll up. I use a heavy galvanized pipe.

Way to show how the tarp goes on… great angles to show perfectly!

@frankschwartz7405 2 жыл бұрын

The easiest and most effective way to anchor these things is to get some steel fence posts and drive them in at an angle parallel to the uprights, then bolt the uprights to them. If you do that on all four corners, it's pretty good. If you do all of them, should be pretty wind resistant.

Thanks, this is really helpful. I was just going to order the same size unit and bagged the plan immediately. I live in NE PA and have seen these around my area. On closer examination thanks to your video I don’t think this would hold up after a few hard winters. I’d rather buy lumber and build a small pole barn with see-through poly roof panels that would let in all the light. It’ll take me longer to put up, but I’m retired and it’s recreational. Thanks again and I hope your unit works out well for you.

Those metal grommet holes in the front are meant for ball bunjee ties to hold the door up if you don’t use the string role up thing. Actually works great!

On our replacement tarp we are using those. I think it works better than the zippers.

@robchamberlin4900 9 ай бұрын

The zippers last maybe 2 to 3 months. The building flexes in the wind and moves so the zipper comes off track. I've found myself putting plywood pieces next to and in front of the door.

I just installed the same Shelter logic tent - and we got a very bad wind / rain storm with 130km winds from SW side (Lake Erie) 2 days, and the tent was gone into the trees. I put heavy boxes, tree stumps and skids on the South and West sides (inside and outside of tent). treeline on east side. the achilles heal was the entrance area on the north side where the door doesn't even reach the ground property and no way to use concrete blocks or 4x4s to hold the entrance door down. Shelter logic should design for a longer entrance door.

@BearsWorkshop 3 жыл бұрын

Sorry that happened to your shed. I agree there are some areas of improvements but that is some pretty strong winds. In an area where you can get winds like that you should probably bite the bullet and go with a more solid structure.

@84imreplica 2 жыл бұрын

I'm in the process of building mine now (12x24x8). Shelterlogic has changed the way the door opens. Mine rolls up by hand. Like you, I built mine to store my tractor. My biggest fear is I'll drive into the garage one day with the roll bar still upright. I think I'll have to put a big sign over the doorway, "Put the roll bar down!!".

@r3cgm 3 жыл бұрын

Does anyone have a recommendation for a "garage" like this but with better ventilation? We get 110-115 degree days in the summer sometimes and if I stick a box with the kids plastic bike helmets I don't want them to melt or crack.

How will you rate the tent. And do consider it heavy duty?

@BearsWorkshop 4 жыл бұрын

I am going to say heavy duty enough for it's use. Only time will tell. The most damaging element here in AZ is going to be the sun. It has proven to be waterproof. But the AZ sun as tendency to dry rot things very quick out here. One of the zippers is getting a little sticky. So on the zippers I would say no not heavy duty enough.

I put one of these up in Westchester, NY, in May 2014 and everything is still good. There are a couple of small holes in the top where branches have fallen & punctured it but a simple patch job from inside has fixed it. Despite substantial snowfall accumulating to about 10" on top, the shelter remained tight and the snow soon slips away in modest warmth. Exceedingly good value in my opinion and certainly robust enough for general machine storage year-round.

I setup this same garage in a box. It is so funny that I had the instructions with a whole time. I set mine up November 30th of this year. I had a ratchet fail, contacted shelter logic sent pictures and got new ratchets yesterday was able to pull the cover back on I am with the author of the video, I don't like how you have make slits in the canvas. I don't think that I'm using the roll up kit.

I was able to do it myself in about 4 hours, using a small 3-step ladder. Built the sections separate, then linked one at a time. Directions were vague, but its pretty obvious how it all goes together. My main complaint was those damn screws. 2 similar sizes, all mixed together.

If you are asking how to pull the tarp over, we used the string that came with it and ran it through the sleeves for the bottom pipes and had one person pulling from one side and another person moving the tarp over the ribs where ever it would get hung up.

@@allenemilystewart6039 My suggestion on the door is to leave it open and tie it up with Bungee Balls and lower it when not in use. The tie system that they suggest is not very effective for rolling up the door and you have to cut the tarp to use it.

Bear's Workshop we don’t even have the tarp on the doors yet, between the ridiculous paperwork they sent, and 2 storms, we got the frame up and that’s all.

@allenemilystewart6039 4 жыл бұрын

Bear's Workshop I thought I replied to you last night, but I’m not sure it went through... we haven’t even gotten that far, we have no idea how to put the ends on. Some of the ridiculous drawings (that clearly a child drew) show it like the pole goes through the pockets around the arch.. but the pockets aren’t big enough at the bottom opening. They get bigger about an inch up from the bottom. I didn’t see any way to secure it if we were to fold it over the pole arch frame. We moved/measured probably 20 times and in no way is it even close to 12 feet!! We actually need every inch of the 12 feet. I would say at this point we are very unhappy with it, but not to the point of taking it down, packing it up and sending it back.

@imxploring 3 жыл бұрын

Just a suggestion to avoid a couple of the most common complaints.... excessive heat and the tarp dry rotting or tearing. I bought a super heavy duty Harbor Freight silver tarp and staked it over the shelter as soon as I put it up. It reflects the heat from the sun and should extend the life of the shelter skin. It was the best $35 I spent in completing this shelter. The replacement skin for these shelters is rather expensive.... so for $35 I've avoided two of the biggest flaws with this shelter. Overall I'm very happy with mine!

@BearsWorkshop 3 жыл бұрын

Yes that should help extend the lifespan but you shouldn't have to buy a tarp to protect your tarp! I have a follow up video on this where my tarp was destroyed my the sun in less than one year. The more expensive tarp upgrade has held together really well but the structure itself just collapsed 2 weeks ago. Now I have a really good tarp laying in the dirt.

@imxploring 3 жыл бұрын

@@BearsWorkshop Damn.... bad luck! I've been super happy with my setup. 2 days after I put it up we had gale force winds for two days and it came through fine. Any fabric or material is going to take a beating with the weather and sun so I figured putting up the additional sacrificial trap would extend the life of the structure. I'm shocked the tubular frame collapsed on you. When I was finished assembling it and securing it to the ground it was rock solid!
