Answers To Most Common Consumer Questions 

	Why should I purchase a metal storage building?
		Metal storage buildings are the most economical form of storage compared to wood, plastic, and monthly rent.
	What tools do I need to assemble the building?
		A #2 Phillips screwdriver, a pair of pliers, work gloves, and a stepladder. However, a magnetic tip cordless screwdriver will speed up assembly time by 40%. Two people are also recommended.  Do not assemble the building on a windy day.
	What kind of foundation do I use?
		The key to a successful installation is to make sure the building is assembled on a square and level surface. You have three choices - pour a concrete slab, build a wood deck/floor, or use an Arrow Floor Frame Foundation Kit which assembles in minutes and provides a floor frame suitable for a plywood floor finish (finishing materials not included).
	Do I need to anchor my building?
		Yes! Your storage building must be anchored to prevent possible wind damage. Arrow offers a ground anchor kit, (AK4), which has 4 heavy-duty ground augers, cable, and clamps. Also available is an AK100 concrete anchor kit and the AK600 is perfect for smaller and sloped roof style Arrow buildings.
	Are the instructions easy to follow?
		Each part is identified with a factory number. The instructions contain a drawing and an assembly illustration of each step. Read the manual before beginning. Call 1-800-851-1085 ext. 1 if a part is missing or damaged. It is very helpful to completely unpack the shipping carton and lay out all the parts for easy identification.
	Are all supplies and parts included in the carton?
		Everything is packed in the box except three (3) elements: The necessary tools to assemble the building A floor which provides the consumer with a choice for the type of foundation And an anchor kit.
	Can the building be painted?
		The buildings can be painted with an exterior grade paint designed for use on metal.
	What is meant by nominal size?
		Nominal size is the roof edge dimensions rounded to the nearest foot. Always check the interior dimensions and recommended foundation size as these are smaller than the nominal size.
	How long will it take to assemble the building?
		There are too many variables which make it difficult to calculate the amount of time needed to assemble the building. However, you should plan to devote a full day with another person as a helper to assemble the building after you have selected and constructed the foundation.
	What are the prices of your products?
		Retailers set their own retail prices. Prices may vary by store and by region.
