Before Purchase
Please note most of our sheds and structures are wind rated to N2 classification by Australian Standards. We recommend checking with your local council before purchase for any requirements or relevant approvals specific to your home.
Before You Start
We recommend following the parts checklist at the start of your instruction manual, to familiarise yourself with the items required and ensure all are available before starting your build.
- Safety Glasses and Gloves
- Enclosed shoes
- Raised work bench (eg sawhorse)
- Additional person to lift and move boxes
- 3mm Drill Bit (provided)
- Power Drill
- Rivet Gun
- 10mm Drill Bit
- Masonry Drill Bit
- Adjustable Spanner
- We recommend that your shed is anchored to a rebated concrete slab for maximum strength, safety and adhere to Absco’s warranty.
- Anchors can be purchased separately if required.
- Having additional people on hand to help with joining panels together and for final construction will be very helpful, even for our smallest sheds we would suggest at least one extra person to help. Bigger sheds may require more people.
- Watch the relevant assembly video all the way through before you start.
- For properties in severe coastal, industrial or other highly corrosive environments, please read the following information before purchasing your shed. Alternatively, please contact our customer service team to discuss.
- If you live in a cyclone prone region or require additional framework for additional strength, cyclone kits may be available for your model. Please check prior to building your shed as some models require installation during the shed assembly process.
Storage Guidelines
- Absco Sheds are designed to be weatherproof for normal weather conditions. In the event of extreme weather conditions such as heavy rain, combined with high wind gusts, the ridge capping, sheeting joins, screw fixings etc., may exhibit minor deformations which may allow some water entry. These areas should be checked regularly to ensure that maximum strength and protection is maintained. See More …
