Instructions wrong in 4 critical spots

Instructions say one size for both right and one smaller for both lefts. WRONG! Front MUST HAVE SHORT. SIDE MUST HAVE LONG RODS!!! There are several other misprints directions completely 180 degrees WRONG. BAD WARPED UP PANELS. NOTHING FITS AND I HAVECOMPLETELY LEVEL FLAT CONCRETE. DOORS DONT FIT ON END. FRONT ARE BADLY MISALIGNED AND NONE OF THE ADVICE WORKS. GARBAGE

Doors don't close well, otherwise it's good

Bought a few months ago. When I finally got it put together, neither of the doors close properly. I had to take off a piece for one of them, and the other one I have to close simultaneously with the other door, which doesn't work when I want one door locked. Other than that, it has held up to some pretty heavy rain and is quite solid.

Major frustrations with Lifetime shed assembly!

The given ID parts numbers in the instruction pamphlet did not match any of the parts numbers in the labeled bags of the parts. The drawings were not completely accurate. Couldn't make out which ends to match up. Some pieces had unexplained square holes . I watched many videos of the steps taken to erect the sheds, but there were no step-by-step directions that showed the assembly of parts and the fasteners used. One video said that I could put the big single window panel on any wall I want. My kit came with two entrances, two narrow window panels and the single big window. I wanted to have the two small windows on either side of the front door, the second entrance on the left side of the shed and the single big window on the right side of the shed. The back of the shed is inches away from a solid fence. That's why I wanted the big window panel on the side. Many of the panels I couldn't “pop” into place so I ended up securing them to the base with angle brackets. It would be so helpful if Lifetime would make a very detailed DVD on every aspect and every step in putting together their sheds for Do-It-Yourselfers.

Doors as delivered are too wide and wouldn't close. Check your parts BLH Before you assemble the lock hardware

The kit arrived with parts BLH being too wide. So even though the doors were level, they interfered with each other and wouldn't close. To lifetime's credit, they sent me narrower parts which worked. But... The right parts should have shipped with the kit in the beginning And... I paid lifetime to have it assembled. Given that they issue was not the installers fault, I did not feel right asking them to come out again (if they even would) so I had to fix it myself Which was... Not so easy after the parts have been sort of clamped tight due to the lock bolts. They no longer just slide off See the photos.

Exceptional engineering

Just finished assembly, everything fit perfectly. 0 quality issues. Instructions were sub par. Storing a 0-turn mower so base was important as it is very heavy. Used treated 2x6” for the wood base. I actually assembled it by myself with a little creativity and Jorgensen type clamps. I'm 72.

Very nice shed

I put this up about a month ago. Very easy to put together and instructions were simple to follow. Did it by myself in about 7 hours with a few helping hands when needed. Looks great in the yard and a ton of storage. Had a few big rain storms and held up like a champ. Decided to get one of the Lifetime playsets as I was so impressed with the shed.

They stand behind their product.

I installed this shed in my Florida backyard, more than 10 years ago. I installed it on top of an unused part of my paver driveway. Knowing that it would probably be subject to hurricanes some day, I removed some pavers around the perimeter of the shed, poured a concrete trench into the ground, inserted hurricane straps into the wet concrete and bolted the straps to the lower side walls. It has successfully survived several hurricanes through the years. With that said, recently I needed some interior metal supports replaced, as the shed is within feet of the salt-water Intra-coastal waterway. The very pleasant customer service guy, clearly at the factory in Utah, not at a call center in India or somewhere else overseas, sent me replacement parts under the warranty, and he did so "with a smile". They shipped the parts immediately. A pleasure to deal with Lifetime.

Verified Purchase

Hope that you receive it on time.

We ordered this shed in July. It was delivered in September (3 weeks late). Normally this would not have been a problem, but since we moved to a mobile home, we needed the storage area before the closing occurred on the house we sold. My husband is desperately trying to put it together without any help before the closing which is tomorrow. Building this shed is a lot of work. We thought we would have several weekends to work on it. My husband is very handy and it's difficult for him. The product itself may be wonderful. We don't know yet. But the inconvenience we went through to get it was not worth it.

Awesome Shed! Great Installers.

I just had my shed installed by the most knowledgable 2 men that I've ever had the pleasure to work with. They installed this shed is about 4 hours including the extra shelving I ordered. I couldn't be happier. I would have taken my husband and I at least 3 days and lots of arguing to install. And they had it done in a morning.
