Bought a Yardmaster shed second hand, think it’s about 8 x 6 or 7ft, not sure of the size as it was dissasembled, with no instructions. Though yardmaster seemed willing to send a copy, nothing happened. So many thanks for these posted instructions. They’ll allow me to identify the parts and get it built at last.

Kind Regards, Myke.

Cheers for this, just realised I have no idea where the instructions are and I haven’t put the doors on yet. The concrete will be fully hardened in a day or two so it’ll be finishing all the loose ends time.

Here’s an email\review i sent to yardmaster:

——SINKING THE SHIP FOR A HA’PORTH OF TAR——
As a keen DIY’er I’m amazed at all the 5 star reviews! Maybe it was the price that had people overlooking the shortcomings of this somewhat poorly made shed, this review is for an Yardmaster Apex green shiplap shed, 4 x 3 meters, which came in 3 flat packs.

BAD STUFF
1. The triangular metal ‘gables’ were not properly formed…(how could Q.A. let this pass?) the edges were not square and had to be bashed square, also the ends were badly formed.
2. Even though I tried my best to get the base square many of the pilot holes didn’t line up, I had to drill dozens of fresh holes. It would have been a lot easier with larger clearance holes with larger washers and screws. Are you listening yardmaster?
3. Each roof cross beam is made of 4 thin sheets of steel but they don’t fit snugly together and when bolted were crooked and misshapen, causing the roof to droop, with sharp edges too.
4. The height! Okay of you are a dwarf but why cant they make it, say, 12” higher, I’m 5’10” and have to stoop at the edges, I already plan to raise the shed on breeze blocks and make a new door.
5. The instructions are dreadful! It took me ages to work out some of the drawings, which look nothing like the actual parts. It’s all pictures and hardly any words; I could have made a much better manual myself over a weekend! MORE DETAIL PLEASE!!!
6. The self-tapping screws were a bit small and fiddly; they should all have been the same as the larger ones supplied for the end gutters.
7. The transparent roof panels are very narrow, not much light there!
8. Many formed pieces are not fully formed and square! Much bending into shape required! Tut tut tut! The doors are like biscuit tin lids!

GOOD STUFF
1. Yes, the price. Looks nice too.
2. During early construction I was really worried at how thin and wobbly the wall sheets were
3. (Please avoid windy weather!) However, as the roof panels were screwed down I noticed a REMARKABLE increase in overall strength and rigidity, which was very satisfying!
4. The roof panels were much easier to erect than I had anticipated. (Alas many holes did not align which meant much drilling.)

FUTURE PLANS in the spring
1. Get a large can of builders foam to fill in the voids in the roof. And other nooks and crannies, and any potential leak holes.
2. Raise the shed on a ‘skirting’ of breezeblocks, this will shorten the doors but I’ll ditch them and make one big wooden door.
3. Spray interior walls with insulating foam (this will deaden the sound which is like a giant steel drum!) put up 9mm ply walls for further insulation and strength, also the ply walls will be able to take all the racks and shelves I have planned
4. I’ll have to cover the cross beams with protective foam or sooner or later I’ll cut my head!
5. Put in a big transparent roof panel.

All in all though I’m rather pleased with my new woodworking shop.
ANY COMMENTS WELCOME
Eric

I cannot find the instructions. Where the instructions?

FOUND – have found that the instructions for most of the Yardmaster range can be downloaded from the French sellers at http://www.triganostore.com
Go to the tab “Abris de Jardin et Garages” and select “Abris de Jardin Metal”.
Select the model you require and scroll down the product page to find the tab “Fiche Technique” . There should be a red link like
Notice montage abri de jardin 63GEYZ Télécharger
This will take you straight to the pdf (multilanguage)
Here are the current urls for a few GEY sheds

And free heat!
Regarding insulation, think about removable panels on the south-facing side. My yardmaster (the pale green shiplap type) is amazingly warm on a sunny winter’s day despite no insulation or draught-proofing. I use it for storage in plastic boxes and for drying the washing on a camping airer – no wood or metal to worry about – so it needs the ventilation. It was a complete nightmare to assemble (my science degree was no help) so never again! It is sheltered by a nearby garage but gets sun along one long side. If I painted it black it would be even hotter! I sit there with my tea to shelter and warm up while gardening in winter. It looks good and works well so I’m very happy with it. If it were nearer the house – or if I could ever face building another one – I’d pipe all that solar warm air indoors!
