shelterlogic permanent structure - Part 1 - Framing

Welcome!
We’ve had this Shelter Logic 10x20x8 Autoshelter for about 3 years now. The wind and elements have shredded the canvas covering and it’s time to address it. The frame is still in great shape, but we’re reluctant to replace the canvas as, at this rate, we’ll be at it again 3 years from now. Instead, we’ve decided to reinforce the frame for additional strength, and use metal siding as the protective covering.
We’ll complete this project in 3 stages: framing, covering/wrapping, and building doors. Today you’ll see what goes into reinforcing the metal frame with wooden 2” x 4”s. Be sure to tune in for parts 2 and 3.
Until the next time, take care & God bless.

This is very cool, I have two of these and was considering converting one to a greenhouse and the other to a permanent shed. But my real question etc is why not just buy a few more 2x4s and just build a regular shed. Doesn’t seem like you save much material. I might just make the other a chicken coop and ditch this idea.

Great question ! Up front we installed this shelter to house my son's truck while he was on deployment in the military for 2 years. Once he returned I moved the tractor into it. Since this was the only shelter I had for the tractor I wanted to add to what was already there. No doubt if I wanted a permanent shelter I would have done it this way from the start with all wood structure. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Absolutely outstanding! I bought one (actually two) of these last spring, and have been waiting for the rains to subside here in FL to put it up. Wanted to make a permanent structure as well (10' X 30' hence the reason I bought two). Been racking my brain as to the best way to go about the framing upgrade, and you did it for me over the summer. I'll probably be doing a T1-11 siding on the exterior, but I really appreciate you handling the door situation in part three as well. Thanks a million!

@thehandyoutdoorsman9014 3 жыл бұрын

Glad the series was helpful! What are your plans for the roof if you use T1-11 siding? The way I ran the panels on my roof was not the best but so far it is not leaking (A bit of caulk solved that problem). If I did it over I would turn them 90 degrees and figure out the framing so over time I would not have to worry about caulk failure. Good luck on your project.

@@thehandyoutdoorsman9014 For whatever reason, the sides on mine stand strait upright, not angled outward at the bottom. So I figure I'll just sheath the roof, with a bit of an overhang, and shingle it. Obviously I don't have snow load to contend with, so I feel comfortable with a bit of additional weight up there to start with. I'm orig. from MI, so I know what that's all about

So much easier just to put metal sheets on the outside straight into the metal... only place I may add some wood reinforcement is the roof to handle snow load better.

@Josephpono Жыл бұрын

Your basically building a shed or garage. I would of just applied 1x4 strapping and covered with sheet metal panels.

@thehandyoutdoorsman9014 Жыл бұрын

One could have done this for sure. I did it for two reasons: 1. Snow load 2. Extra security

@clarkstevens2711 6 ай бұрын

That's pretty clever but that was way more work than just throwing all the pipe away and building a wooden structure similar to what you did but without the other pipes I built one myself but I threw the pipes away

@thehandyoutdoorsman9014 6 ай бұрын

Yes, one can look at it that way. Since there was nothing wrong with the pipe why throw it out? I just reinforced the frame that was there and saved time and money then starting from scratch.

Great job. Doing the same thing up here in Canada except with a round roof. Was going to go straight steel but I want to reinforce it like you did with the internal frame.

@thehandyoutdoorsman9014 Жыл бұрын

In order for it to be secure from someone pushing in the metal siding you have to do the reinforcing. No issues to this day.

@spunkyprep 2 жыл бұрын

Why not just keep the frame in place, get some of that metal cladding, use a chalk string to get accurate lines and drill the frame to accept appropriately sized pop rivets? Roof can be done the same way, i'd expect. I like the pad and metal frame idea, i just don't think i'd bother with the wood.

You did way too much extras. You could have framed it in and then anchored the frame down these are sturdy frames I set them up constantly and watch them take 60 mile an hour winds the way that I have them anchored.

@thehandyoutdoorsman9014 Жыл бұрын

You are correct, for a standard tarp structure the framing would have been enough. Watch part III and I explain why I did it this way. Thanks for watching and commenting!
