Frequently Asked Questions
Are windows included?
No. Windows, shingles, and flooring are sold separately, so you can customize your shed to choose how much natural light you'd like to have come into your space and how insulated you would like it to be for a fully personalized shed.
Do I need a floor?
Yes. You’ll need either a cement slab or a wooden floor. Our FortressFloor™ upgrade is perfect for those who want a durable, professional-grade base that lasts for years.
Is assembly included?
No. These are DIY kits. Assembly with these DIY Kits is simple and easy. You can assemble these yourself, no matter your skill level, with a helper, or you could hire a contractor if you wanted to free up your day.
How long does assembly take?
Typically 2–3 days with two or three people once the floor is set and level.
What tools are needed?
A drill, hammer, ladder, saw, tape measure, pencil, level, and safety gear are recommended.
How long until shipping?
Orders usually ship within 5–7 days after purchase.
How is it delivered?
All kits are shipped curbside with liftgate service, so you don’t have to worry about unloading heavy parts. Delivery is quick, easy, and reliable. You’ll just need to move the materials to your build area once delivered.
