1 The Grant Sheds Story

1952-2012

With all the family being raised in a country region, we recognise the importance of being friendly, helpful, honest and following through on anything we commit to. My name is Alison Halupka and together with my husband Danny we are the owners of GRANT SHEDS. It was my father Grant Telfer who started GRANT SHEDS in 1952 when he was only 20 years old. He was keen on welding and working with steel and found a market making steel framed sheds. Through his focus on supplying strong, well-made sheds and his ability to listen to and understand what farmers really wanted and needed his business grew quickly.

He had very strong family business values that appreciated by his customers in the country areas he supplied and sheds in.

and were built

Many people actually remember Grant for the 5-acre Adventure Playground he built in Monash SA (here’s an older picture I found, to the right.) So many families had fun on the 200-plus pieces of playground equipment he added over the years. It was free to enter all day, every day, and had slides (including 3 that were on a 45-foot tower), more than 30 types of seesaws, flying foxes and even basic roller coasters. It attracted more than 300,000 people a year from right across SA and interstate.

TOP LEFT: Grant Park, 5 acres of fun. TOP RIGHT: ‘Grant Telfer Figure-8 Spiral Slide’ ABOVE: The man himself, Grant Telfer

Sadly it had to close in the early 1990’s because insurance companies would nolonger insure it. That was the start of the ‘litigation era’, and insurance companies saw playgrounds as high risk... or was it just that too many people were having too much fun for free?

That’s Dad to the right, proudly posing at the playground, happy as ever and renowned for his white overalls, bare feet and bike… he’s quite a character. Danny and I joined the family business about 25 years ago and Grant has taught us all about building good strong sheds and how to really listen to what our customer needs and how to give good practical advice on the best sheds for them. It’s also about the planning and the systems we put in place to make sure we can do what we say we’ll do and within the time we say we do it.

With all the family being raised in a country region, we recognise the importance of being friendly, helpful, honest… and following through on anything we commit to. Dad retired in the early 1980s and Danny and I now own the business. I’m proud to say that our efforts haven’t gone unnoticed – I was awarded the Riverland Women in Business Award in 2004 and was a finalist that year for the SA Telstra Business Women Awards. I tell you that not to brag or boast in any way, but instead so you know a bit about our history, not just in supplying super strong, ‘Aussie tough’ farm sheds, but also to show you that we really do love to give back to our community and are proud of our caring, helpful and friendly attitude.

“When a shed is not designed, manufactured or built properly, this can be the result.”

ED H S T N RA G A T O N

2 The 7 Big Costly Mistakes Shed Buyers Make – And How To Avoid Them! Real dangers exist when buying a shed if you don’t choose carefully ... You really could end up with a ‘lemon’ because there are some sheds on the market that really don’t stand up to the job. When you come to Grant Sheds you’ll soon notice the difference because we’re a bit unique… we actually listen to what people want and ACT on it fast and in a reliable manner. We’ll have your shed up in no time so you can start using it. Grant Sheds offers you a new way to get yourself the best “SUPER STRONG, AUSSIE TOUGH SHED” for any of your farming requirements. A GUARANTEED new, and sturdy all-purpose shed custom built to suit you.

Left: A ‘cheap’ shed with inferior materials and poor structural design will be sure to disappoint you. Note: This shed with its sagging roof is NOT one of ours.

And look, we’re well aware of the realities people face when it comes to making the right decisions so we’ve come up with the following simple guide: “The 7 Big Costly Mistakes Shed Buyer’s Make & How To Avoid Them!”

1 E K A T S MI Buying the cheapest catalogue ‘advertised’ shed or from an unscrupulous supplier who uses inferior materials or imported stuff that doesn’t stand up to everyday wear and tear. It’s like trying to build your shed with a roll of aluminium foil. The cheap stuff is so weak you’d put dents in it even just handling it when putting it together. And it won’t last very long because the structure isn’t designed for rugged Australian conditions. The imported stuff may claim to be “made to Australian Standards” but they won’t put a guarantee on it - that’s gotta tell you something! Parts are also missing or you find it’s very hard to build... there’s still just as much assembling of the parts to do as erecting the shed – no wonder it was so cheap to start with. Worst of all there’s no one around to assist or fix the problem. As they say cheap is not always the best. Instead of looking for “cheap” look for “GREAT VALUE”. Check that you are buying a good, strong shed and check the added value you get from your first contact and right through to when your shed is erected. When you buy a super strong “Aussie Tough” shed from Grant Sheds it’s never done “on the cheap”. You’ll be pleased with the price, but you’ll be especially pleased with all of the value built in to your new investment.

MISTAKE 2 Buying a shed from someone who doesn’t take the time to understand your needs – only to find the shed doesn’t fulfil your requirements! (e.g. Doorways or openings too small, height

clearance less than you expected, etc.)

This will be guaranteed to make you feel “ripped off”. Always work with a professional shed supplier that has been well respected in the industry for many years. A good shed company will discuss a range of options and help you get a shed that suits your needs. Don’t let pushy sales people sell you what they have instead of what you need.

“Aussie-Tough Farm Sheds ... Delivered On Time & Backed By Our Incredible 50 Year Rock-Solid Guarantee!”

3 MISTAKE The shed company only wants to sell you a kit and tells you it’s easy to find a local shed builder to build it for you. But then you find it’s almost impossible to find a shed builder to erect it... there just aren’t that many around... and the good ones are already extremely busy, often aligned to specific shed companies and with no time to even consider building another shed, especially a “cheap” brand they don’t know. They’ve been caught with those before. So you’re left with no builder or finding a ‘general’ builder who has little or no experience building with steel. Work out who you are going to get to build your shed before you buy it.

MIST AKE

Attempting to arrange the sometimes-tricky council application process for the first time! You don’t have to go it alone.

A shed supplier worth his salt can assist you through this minefield and will provide all the technical information, drawings and engineering calculations so that council approval can be made quick and easy. Find out what help your shed supplier will give you and make sure they don’t make you wait until you’ve paid for and received the shed before giving you the technical information for you to submit to your council. Otherwise you may find you’ve paid for your shed only to find your council won’t approve it and you’re left stranded with a useless, expensive pile of scrap metal.

5 MISTAKE Getting caught out with expensive add on costs – through not getting a fully itemized written quote! This is the only way to make sure there’s no misunderstanding and you get what you want from the start. We heard a story recently from someone who bought another shed brand but wished he’d bought a ‘Grant’ shed. The other shed company had quoted him a price for the shed kit, plus an estimate of between $XX and $XXX, for the building. Even at the higher end of the estimate it meant the overall price (supply and build) was cheaper than all other quotes he’d received. But... the shed company only gave him the contact details of the independent builders after the shed kit was paid for and supplied. The customer had to contact the builders himself to arrange the building. The builders then quoted a building price thousands of dollars more than the high end of the estimate he’d previously been given! And they said this shed company does this all the time... they estimate low to win the shed sale, then leave it to the customer and builders to deal with the fallout. This customer was angry... If he’d known this before he bought the shed he’d have made a very different decision.

“We’re very pleased with the design of this shed ... One of the best I’ve seen. I couldn’t wish for anything better. I like the sturdiness, the actual strength and the way it’s finished off. To me the impressive thing is it’s robust ... It’s a “shed” shed. I think it’s an absolute credit to you.” John Faint, Saddleworth SA

Good Builders: ISTAKE 6 M Finding Scenario 1: The city-based shed company you buy from has builders they can recommend but the builders don’t want to leave their city limits, so they either keep delaying when they’ll come because they’d rather do the newer more local (to them) jobs that come in after yours OR they rush your job because they just want to get home. Then when you find problems with the way they’ve built your shed, you can’t get them to return to fix it. Scenario 2: Organising your own builder only to find he won’t commit to a time, or starts and then stops and you have to waste your precious time chasing him up to finish your shed. You might pay for a shed that is never completely built and have to pay another builder to finish off the job. Grant Sheds builders are happy to travel, they look after themselves while away (accommodation, meals, etc) and they take the time to get you to check over the shed before they leave so if you have any concerns they’ll fix them immediately. And... Grant Sheds remains responsible for the shed long after the building is finished. So if you have a concern later on, just give us a call and we’ll have it fixed for you.

MISTAKE

7

Finding it’s your bad luck if things get lost in transit, yet you don’t know if they were even shipped in the first place. It’s rotten when the shed company doesn’t believe you when you tell them you haven’t received some of the materials needed for the shed kit and you have to pay for those again. Check your shed supplier’s policy on short-supply items and find out if they can deliver direct to you to reduce external freight company problems.

Here’s a snapshot of the types of quality Farm Sheds you can get from Grant Sheds to suit your special requirements... 18m x 36m x 5.6m Machinery Shed

Machinery Sheds For storage of farm equipment and implements (e.g. tractors, trucks, grain or grape harvesters, spray equipment, tractor implements, etc.) They’re also great as farm workshops. Machinery sheds in SA are much larger than in eastern states, and they even vary in size from the east of our state to the west of our state (sheds may have openings up to 12 or 15m wide to fit the very large broad acre farm equipment used in the west).

12m x 24m x 5.1m Machinery Shed with enclosed Workshop

Bulk Grain Sheds These sheds have an inside-out appearance. The corrugated iron for the walls is on the inside of the shed frame and also acts as the grain shed lining. The wall girts the wall iron is attached to are also much more closely spaced than in other sheds to give strength and support for the outward load (from the weight of grain that will be stored in the shed).

20m x 60m x 5.1m Bulk Grain Shed

A bulk grain shed allows you to prevent unloading delays at harvest time, so you continue harvesting as quickly as possible and avoid crop damage once the optimal harvesting time begins. Having a bulk grain shed also gives you great flexibility: you can either leave the grain in the shed for delivery to grain markets once the rush of the grain harvest is over, or transfer the grain into separate silos for later sale or use. That can give you the ability to sell when prices are better… giving you more options and more farm income. And your bulk grain shed is a multi-purpose investment – machinery can be stored in it when it is not being used for grain.

FREECALL 1800 088 528


Hay Sheds Our sheds can be supplied for large or small hay bales. They’re perfect for export quality, large bale hay which needs to be stored under cover to retain quality to get best export prices. We can easily handle the huge hay sheds in sizes such as 30m x 150m x 8m (or 100’ x 500’ x 25’).

20m x 36.4m x 6.5m Hay Shed

Sliding Roof Bulk Fertiliser Sheds These sheds have a low roof height and the roof slides open to allow a semi trailer/tipper to unload bulk supplies of fertiliser directly into the shed. The roof can simply be rolled closed again. A front end loader can then be used to empty the fertiliser from the shed. This saves time spent moving fertiliser. It also reduces the cost of the shed needed to store fertiliser in (because the shed does not have to be as high as would be otherwise needed to be able to tip a semi trailer tipper inside a shed structure).

Sliding Roof Bulk Fertiliser Shed

Garages Of course, we also make garages for single, double or multiple vehicles, with roller or sliding doors and Zincalume or Colorbond cladding.

Horse Riding Arenas Undercover arenas for horse riding enthusiasts give you protection from sun and rain. It’s a great place to train your horses with the very best of facilities.

7.5m x 9m x 3m Colorbond Garage

Shed Accessories for Your Farm Shed We can supply a complete range of Zincalume or Colorbond Cladding, wide beam openings for your wide farm equipment, Dividing walls, Personal Access (PA) Doors, Windows, Skylights, Rotary Roof Ventilators, Insulation and Remote Controls for roller doors.

5 What Makes Sheds Built By “Grant Sheds” So Good? How To Have Peace Of Mind Knowing Your Farm Shed Is In Perfect Order. We’ve been building sheds since 1952. “So what” you might say. The point is, when a business can successfully trade for so many years it is proof they must be doing the right thing by their customers.

“Before I bought my shed I looked at sheds on other farms and was amazed to find they had poor quality materials and second rate construction ...even signs of rust and fatigue. So when I walked into a shed built by GRANT SHEDS, the quality just stood out compared to other brands I’d seen. Things were bigger and David & Andrea Crawford, ‘Middlegrove’ stronger - and they have a 50 Year Guarantee! That’s why I bought a Grant Shed. I’m extremely pleased with it. It’s so strong the builders Strathalbyn , SA didn’t need side supports before the cladding went on.”

22


53% of the sheds we sell are orders from existing customers and referrals from happy customers - and it’s why we’ve been told “You’re the guys who build the best sheds in Australia!” Grant Sheds is all about good strong sheds, great customer assistance and backing up our products and services. Grant Sheds look super strong because they are exceptionally strong and ‘Aussie tough’. They’re sheds designed to withstand our conditions and come with a guarantee TWICE as long as anyone else! Our builders have a wealth of experience and have worked with us for a long time. Take Steve for example, he has been building Grant sheds for 20 years and holds immense pride in the workmanship and ability of himself and his team. He loves building big farm and industrial sheds. He loves the big equipment he uses (big boys toys) and he enjoys travelling throughout the country.

Here’s what happens when you come to “GRANT SHEDS” and experience our thorough 9-Step highly personalised process… 1. When you contact us you’ll be made to feel welcome by our trained and experienced sales team who are there to help you understand the different options available… and in what circumstances different shed types are best suited to your needs.

2. Once you request a building proposal, in most cases, we’ll have the detailed, written proposal(s) plus layout drawings faxed or emailed to you within 24 hours – often much quicker. The layout drawings help you to visualise what is included in your written quote. We’ll then follow it up with a copy of the quote in the mail along with brochures and other information that will be useful to you.

3. When placing an order most people give us their verbal order over the phone. That way we can talk about which shed options you have decided to go with. At this point we’ll also tell you when delivery can be scheduled for and when the builders can be scheduled to build your shed.

4. We then ask you to pay a deposit (cheque or Internet banking).

5. Following this we send you confirmation of your order detailing everything that we’ve discussed to be included, and we’ll send the information you need (plans, specifications, etc) for Council building approval.

“I’ve just purchased my third Grant Shed. I have 2 Hay Sheds and now a Machinery Shed. I’ve gone with Grant’s again because the first 2 were very good. The Grant Sheds team listen to what I need and do what I’ve asked for. They also organise the builders and they arrive on time. The builder, Phil, has been great. He is very quick and has top workmanship. I know I’ll be as happy with my 3rd Grant Shed as I’ve been with the others.” Neil Heinrich, Bordertown, SA “The cost of any purchase is always of concern but we certainly didn’t go for the cheapest quote. The main concern is the quality of the shed and our neighbours recommendations helped sway our decision.” Peter Faint, Saddleworth, SA

“I would just like to say that on recommendation from friends in the Riverland, I had no hesitation in selecting Grant Sheds to erect a new shed at our home. I was extremely impressed with Brenton Halupka and his extensive knowledge. I had some ideas of what I wanted, but Brenton was able to help me bring it all together. Nothing was too difficult for him and I was very impressed when he came out home and went over the site where I wanted the shed placed and came up with suggestions that I hadn’t even thought about. I was very happy with the total cost and am looking forward to the completed construction. Chris Boyce, Loveday, SA Chris’ shed was being built at Loveday, while he was working at Yalata in the state’s far west.

Thank you to Danny, Brenton and Kirsty for the professional service that we have had starting from my initial enquiry right through to completion and beyond. It is indeed very pleasing to receive the phone calls rather than making them and this was the standard throughout the process. I also mention that the tradesmen were competent, friendly and turned up as promised. Once again, thank you for making all this happen stress free.

Q1: Can I get the shed I want and stay within my budget? A: Because our quoting process is done on our specialized shed quoting programs, it is easy and quick for us to give you a number of written proposals for different shed sizes or layout plans. We can give you: A

A number of proposals for different shed sizes or layouts

A

Provide detailed, written proposals quickly

A

ive you printed drawings of the shed(s) so you can “see” and easily understand the G layout and the quote.

By providing this, you will be able to compare prices between different sizes and design layouts to see what best fits with your shed needs and your budget.

Q2: I want a good, STRONG shed. How can I be sure your sheds won’t let me down? A: We are so confident of the strength and quality of our sheds that we offer an incredible and outrageous “50 Year Structural Guarantee” (explained in more detail in Book 7). How can we do this?

Grant Sheds has been building “Super Strong, Aussie Tough” sheds in South Australia since 1952… that’s 60+ years… and 10,000+ sheds!

This means we well and truly know sheds, we know how to make STRONG sheds and we know how to design sheds. We know the region’s weather, it’s environmental conditions, the types of materials to use and how to design, manufacture and build sheds that will last 100+ years.

Q3: Can you tell me how you do things better? A: Certainly. We have a reputation for premium quality sheds that are STRONG and very TOUGH and will stand the test of time. Here are just some examples of the many ways we achieve this: 1. Our sheds are designed by professional structural engineers to make sure they comply with the current Building Code of Australia and they are designed to withstand a 1 in 100 year freak weather event. The designs are based on the wind readings over a 100 year return period. In SA (Region A), this equates to wind speeds of 147 kph - that’s 41 metres per second! 2. T he strong steel frames won’t blow down or attract termites. They are heavy duty sheds, designed to withstand your local conditions. If our sheds were body builders they’d be in Arnold Schwarzenegger’s “Mr Universe” class! 3. We supply long-length, overlapping roof purlins and wall girts that give much stronger connections than typical butt-together C-section purlins. The overlapping creates the same effect as “continuous” purlins and this is much stronger than butt joints. 4. Grant “True Blue Aussie Tough Sheds” are well braced as this is an integral part of the design structure - it adds strength and rigidity and peace of mind for the owner.

I f these components are omitted, the shed strength is compromised and may lead to structure failure in high wind and up-lift conditions. Even the smallest of our sheds has bracing in them. ur customers tell us the strength and cross-bracing in the roof sections is much better than in O other sheds they’ve seen. These are some of the many reasons why SA farmers have come to rely on us as the only company they will build a shed with, and the only shed company they will recommend to their family and friends. Over 53% of our shed sales are from existing customers and referrals from happy customers.

Q4: Do you use Australian material? A: Yes. We use top quality, first grade Bluescope Steel products.

Q5: What happens with Council Building Approvals? A:

ith 60+ years of experience under our belts, we understand the building application W processes, compliance issues and regulations, so we’ll help you get your council approval. After you order your new “True Blue Aussie Tough Shed” from Grant Sheds, we will draw up all the technical engineering plans on our computer based programs. You will get: A Layout drawings in plan view A Elevation drawings x 4 A Member schedule A Footings detail A Connection details, and A Engineering Calculations This will give you all the engineering information about the structure of the shed that you need to submit to council with your building application. We’ll also give you advice and suggestions to get your approval as quickly as possible.

FREECALL 1800 088 528


Q6: Are your sheds easy to build yourself? A: Yes… As long as you have some building knowledge. You need to understand the necessity for things to be square and level. If you get your footings right, the rest will be relatively easy. Building Instructions are supplied just remember it is a big job. You need the right equipment for keeping things square, lifting frames into place and working safely. It certainly isn’t a one man job. We do make it easier, by having the framing and purlins pre-punched with holes for nearly all the bolts that hold the components together and this will save you a huge amount of drilling time. Here’s what others have said about building their own Grant Shed… “We have put up several sheds but never one using footing bolts, now I wouldn’t do it any other way. The shed was neatly packaged as we carted it ourselves. We erected it ourselves and it was easy to do; not one bolt hole was out of place. We are very happy with the finished shed. The only problem.. It should be bigger!! A very good shed.” Peter Faint, Saddleworth, SA

Q7: Can you build my new “True Blue Aussie Tough Grant” shed for me? A: Yes. Our Grant Sheds accredited “Precision Shed Builders” can save you time and money. The “Precision Shed Builders” we use are exceptionally qualified. They take pride in their workmanship and always perform to a high level. Several of our building teams have been with us for 20+ years !! Now that’s irrefutable proof of our confidence in their workmanship. It’s also proof that they enjoy working with us … and for good reason. You don’t get that kind of lasting relationship without exceptional commitment to quality in terms of product and service from both parties.

“We make STRONG sheds that are designed to be easy to build and we support our builders by organizing their schedules, delivering sheds on time and fixing any issues that arise quickly, so they can get on with their job of building your shed to the highest possible standard. “Excellent job, extremely happy with quality and structure of sheds. The builder, Steve, did a marvellous job with erecting the sheds with high quality workmanship. Highly recommend Grant Sheds and the builders. May I take this opportunity to thank you very much for a fantastic shed and lean-to.” Kevin and Leanne Graetz, Lucindale, SA

“Your sheds are a very good product and Steve’s professionalism as a builder is faultless. We enjoy the guys’ company and look forward to catching up again soon.” Milton Chandler, Ceduna, SA

“Top Shed. Top Builders. Why would anybody mess around with any of the other crap on the market?” Greg Turner, Kangaroo Island, SA

“My builder friend checked over the shed you built for me at Loxton. He was surprised and elated with the quality of the workmanship and pride your builders obviously have in their work. Not knowing much about the building game myself, this information gave me the confidence that I made the right choice when selecting Grant Sheds, not only to purchase the shed, but to build it as well.” Greg Burns, Loxton North, SA

FREECALL 1800 088 528


Q8: How quick can you supply and build my shed? A: That depends on the shed type, size and time of the year. It also depends on if we are building it for you or just supplying the shed kit. Supply is usually 4-8 weeks if we’re supplying the kit only. If you want us to build it for you, then we will talk with you when quoting and give you an indication of the time frame if you were to place your order at that time. But if you wait some months before you order, our whole building schedule may have changed dramatically. When you place your order, only then can we lock you into our building schedules. We will then be able to give you a specific building time and we won’t put any other shed order in your building spot.

Q9: What are the payment terms? A: This depends on the size, type and value of the shed and whether you are buying just the shed kit or the shed erection as well. The payment terms will be shown on all shed proposals and confirmed with you when you order.

Q10: What happens with delivery? A: There are a number of delivery choices and the best method for you will depend on a number of variables. We will talk these through with you to establish the best and most cost effective method for your own circumstances. But the choices are: A We deliver direct to your shed site on our own trucks & trailers A You can collect from our factory A We can organise delivery by an independent truck company

Grant Sheds powerful guarantee ensures once you’ve made the decision to buy a Grant’s Shed, you’ll never have to worry about it again.

So What’s Ahead & Am I Ready To Take The First Step To Get GRANT SHEDS Working For Me? Right from the start let me be up-front by warning you that real dangers exist when it comes to buying a shed if you don’t choose carefully… you really could end up with a “lemon” because there are some sheds on the market that really don’t stand up to the job. Your farm shed really is a hard-working asset for your business – so it affects your family and your livelihood. It’s just as important as your machinery and your crops (and sometimes even more). The right farm shed can protect your machinery, improving the life of rubber and plastic fittings, tyres and upholstery. This reduces repair bills, increases the longevity of your farm equipment and improves its resale value. Or, when storing your hay or grain crops, it keeps it in better condition until you can get a better price than what might be on offer during harvest time.

So What’s Next? We’d really love to build your next farm shed, and we know our super strong ‘Aussie Tough’ sheds are ready to go to work for you. But before you even decide to do that, we know it’s best that we talk (kinda like dating before marriage ... we get to know you, and what you really want, before we give you our proposal that we know you’ll fall in love with. But it’s probably even better than marriage, because our shed comes with a guarantee!) It’s not every day you come across a company like ours. Our aim is to show you just how passionate we are about making you happy and giving you exceptional service, from even before we meet you! All you need to do is contact us to talk with you about your farm shed needs. There’ll be no obligation to go ahead and we won’t be applying any hard edge sales pressure, not at all. We simply want you to say “Hey, I’ve got nothing to lose, in fact I might just find a genuinely helpful company who can give me an exceptional business experience.” That way, even if your plans for a new farm shed are a bit longer term, then at the very least we can show you what’s possible for your farm shed, and show you how a super strong ‘Aussie Tough’ farm shed from us really is your best choice.

Here’s how our ‘Rock-

Solid’ 50 Year Grant Sheds Structural Guarantee’ works… If you follow our advice on the specifications for your new farm shed, and have it erected by Grant Sheds licensed, qualified master shed builders (who’ll make sure it’s erected correctly), and undertake our simple maintenance program every 2 years (which you’d want to do anyway to protect and maintain your investment), then we guarantee you won’t have any structural failure with your shed for the next 50 years. Who else would offer that?! In the unlikely event that something needs to be fixed with your shed, we promise under our Guarantee:

We’ll work for FREE to fix the problem, or we’ll replace your shed FREE. Now while we’re talking about our Rock Solid 50 Year Structural Guarantee, there are a couple of points to keep in mind. First of all, some events aren’t covered. For example, if you drive your tractor or header into the side of the shed and damage it, that might damage the structure and naturally is not guaranteed. Or Acts Of God, like if a bushfire or extreme hurricane destroys your shed, or if a plane lands on it. ... well you see out point. That wouldn’t be covered either. Over time, Colorbond colours fade in the weather (it’s natural for this to occur, so you should expect some colour fading) – that’s not covered either. If you use the roof beams for makeshift storage or to lift an engine block out of a vehicle that could place dangerous loads on the structure. Unless you have indicated your intention to use the shed in such a way before we build it (so we can design the specifications accordingly), the Guarantee will not cover such improper use. And the Guarantee doesn’t cover any damage to property in or around the shed or any personal injury.

But if you use your shed according to its specifications... you will enjoy the comfort of our 50 Year Structural Guarantee. So that means things like if your shed were to blow down in strong winds that are within the 100 year wind rating design limits, or if the doors give you trouble, or if there is structural damage caused by the wind or because our builders made an error...

... then we’ll either FIX IT for FREE or REPLACE IT for FREE if it can’t be fixed. Of course, we still advise you to insure your shed and contents, and to have your liability insurance up to date (as we’re talking about the shed structure here, and not the cost of the contents or damage that may happen to third parties). Anyway, like I mentioned, in using your shed as you should... you’d be fully protected for the next 50 years. Our friendly, helpful sales team members will explain this for you in detail before you agree to anything, so you can rest assured you’ll be fully informed.
