FAQs
What is the maximum bin size this storage unit can hold?
This unit is designed for standard bins with a capacity of 120 L or 240 L. The inner dimensions per section are 65 cm (W) x 73 cm (D) x 113 cm (H).
Does the unit come pre-assembled?

How does the gas-spring lid work?
The gas spring assists in lifting the lid automatically when you open it. A bungee cord connects the storage unit's lid to your wheelie bin's lid, so lifting the unit's lid opens the bin lid simultaneously.
Will this unit help with bin odors?
Yes, the unit features vents on the panels that promote air circulation, which helps to reduce odor buildup.
Can I add more bin spaces later?
Yes, the design allows for expansion. You can enlarge the bin shed to accommodate more bins by adding extra extensions.
What material is the storage unit made of?
The storage unit is made of strong and durable powder-coated steel, which provides resistance to corrosion and harsh weather conditions.
How do I clean the storage unit?
You can clean the unit by wiping it with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning products that could damage the powder coating.
Troubleshooting
Unit wobbles or is unstable
Ensure the unit is placed on a level surface. Check that all screws and bolts are securely tightened during assembly.
Lid does not open smoothly or stay open
Verify the gas spring is correctly attached. Ensure the bungee cord is properly connected to the bin lid. Check for any obstructions preventing smooth operation.
Front doors do not close properly
Check that the bins inside are not obstructing the doors. Ensure the magnetic closures are aligned correctly. Verify the unit itself is square and level.
Rust spots appear on the surface
Clean the affected area gently with a soft cloth and mild soap. Apply a touch-up paint suitable for outdoor metal if necessary. Ensure the unit is kept as dry as possible.
