(More customer reviews)This shed is the only vinyl one that fits my space, however, it needs to be positioned to the right of my house. I assumed that a vinyl modular shed can be assembled with the roof sloping to the right side, and not as pictured.
oh boy - I was wrong. when the shed came, I found out that this is the most over-complicated product I've seen to date. there is absolutely no part symmetry, and each part has to be assembled EXACTLY as directed by the lengthy (30 pages) instruction manual. even parts that could have been symmetric, thus simplifying the installation process and manufacturing costs are not. why do they have to include different parts for front and back roof? they are identical parts with different hole patterns. if you drill one more hole, this part could be assembled both as back support or front, saving me identification of "RS2FC" from "RS2BC", same goes to "RS5C" and "RS6C", that has to be assembled together in a specific direction, or else, one of the roof pins will not be able to fit...
once assembled, I'm happy with the quality and stability of that thing, but such a long time to put it up...
Customer support claimed that the roof cannot be flipped, and their engineering is working on a flipping kit. here's what I did in order to flip the roof, no extra parts or kits needed:
assemble the base as instructed
cut the vinyl coating (and not the metal pole) of "CDRC" at the length of "CCB"
Drill the pins that hold the door's hinges to "CDRC", take the hinges apart, and save them
take the bottom vinyl coating of "CDRC" (the longer part) out of the pole
take the vinyl coating of "CCB" out.
inset the metal pole of "CDRC" into the vinyl extracted from "CCB"
insert the metal pole of "CCB" into the vinyl extracted from "CDRC"
reattach the door hinges to "CCB"
you should get a "CCB" pole similar to "CCC", but with door hinges instead of the dual panel support
invert all wall parts ("CMB" for "CMC", "SP" for "SPC") and continue assembly of the walls
cut one of the flaps of "FCC" to be assembled over the modified "CDRC" (now shorter)
assemble the roof, but invert all front and back parts
enjoy!
