Double Garage 6.4m x 7.2m Ironsand

It was delivered right into my property in good condition. Everything that I need for a great shed

This review is written to assist buyers as the instructions are rudimentary to say the least. I suggest you also get a scaffold tower and an angle grinder. The slab dimensions is the frame 6330w x 7140L plus the depth of the “cross beams” on both sides and the end. This will eat the tin walls hang over the side of the slab for better waterproofing. Once the slab is laid we found through trial and error that it was best to box out the bottom of the frame with the “side upstanding tubes”using all the “cross beams” to hold them square. The “side upstanding tubes” were then secured to the slab by dynabolting the provided L brackets to the concrete and drilling a non supplied engineering bolt through them. We then put the “cross tube for roof” assembly’s on with the help of scaffolding tower. Once we needed to pull the tops the “side upstanding tube” in with strops to get the portal plumb before attaching the “galvanised tube” bracing to hold in place. Work your way through completing each portal and bracing with the rafters as you go. Once framing is up we added non supplied strap bracing to roof and walls before cladding. In hindsight I would start by cladding the front wall first. I would the fix the four corner walls temporarily to run a string line before starting on the roof. You need to fix the roof by working from the scaffold as the tin will not bear the weight of a cat let alone a human. You will also need to decide if you want to put in extra screws at the join of each tile and replace the ridge cap at this stage. (Provided ridge cap not really fit for purpose). Next the sides, measure and mark your screw holes to avoid misses. Do the back wall last so any snafu’s can be trimmed and hidden. I put longer screws in the tile joins (not provided). Our person door needed to be trimmed and re riveted and I’m still working on how to waterproof it. Roller doors work well but needed tweaking as the brackets weren’t drilled the right way. It’s pretty solid once up with the strap bracing but suggest lining it as the tin will damage easily. Hope this helps some one.

What a great way to find an excuse to work with the boy on a common project... really enjoyed the build. A few challenges along the way but neither of us are builders so expected a few bumps. Overall a great kit and a great outcome. Totally recommend. Thanks guys!

Morning lm still pouring the concrete floor. The only thing I have a problem with is the packing was all damaged on the ends and had been taped up lm not sure if and thing has fallen out. Won't know until I start to assemble. Garry

The instructions are terrible. They are vague, misleading and in some parts completely wrong (ie the side door) Thirdly a few components are either too short or too long and some beams have slight bows to them. However once you work your way through all these problems you get a pretty good garage but it could be so much better with a few tweaks.

Like other reviewers, the instructions are terrible. They lack important details and in some cases are either misleading or wrong. (ie the side door) Some components were too short (roof and door trims) or too long. Some components were inconsistently roll formed which made squaring up a pain in the neck. On the plus side it looks pretty good now it's finished and I like the roller doors. I've recommended it because essentially you get what you pay for but it could be so much better with a few tweaks.

As per expected from previous reviews, instructions could be better but overall it is water tight, like the roller doors, and everything was in the kit and went together well.

No overall pad size. Were we missing some specs??? 2. Wall iron does not extend down over the pad ie iron length is flush with floor level. 3. Plans are ***. 4. No strap bracing. 5.Plastic near impossible to take off, wasted nearly 1 week taking it off all sheets. 6.Roller doors 40mm to short if using slotted brackets supplied adjusted in as close in as possible. 7. Flashings only 2 that were usable were the ones for the side door (Had to replace ridging and every other flashings needed). 8 Side door does not even fit the gap, door is to large by 8mm using the supplied spacing component 9.Plate that went round key hole was broken as it was found loose in centre of garage door 10. Keys don't fit the lock 11 When did get 1 key, out off 6, to work locking bar not long enough.

everything came in good packaging but putting it together needs to be a lot clearer , there needs to be a video of how these are assembled as the plans are not the clearest to read, and i am a builder, overall a good product

Some Brackets are missing.Roller door 100mm to short.Flashing's on roof to short. Otherwise not a bad Garage.
