FAQs
What are Evotech panels?
Evotech panels are a proprietary material used by Keter that mimic the look and feel of natural wood while offering superior durability and virtually no maintenance. They do not rust, rot, dent, or peel.
Is the Keter Newton Plus Shed weather resistant?
Yes, the shed is built with double-wall construction and steel reinforcement, specifically designed to provide high durability and strength, allowing it to withstand various weather conditions effectively.
How do I secure the shed's contents?
The Keter Newton Plus Shed features lockable double doors. You will need to provide your own padlock to utilize this security feature.
Does it require a special base or foundation?
While the shed includes a heavy-duty floor, installing it on a flat, level, and solid foundation (like concrete, paving slabs, or a timber frame) is highly recommended to ensure stability, proper door operation, and longevity.
Can I reconfigure the shed after it's built?
The modular design allows you to choose between two configurations (wide or narrow) during the initial assembly process. While theoretically possible to reconfigure later, it would involve partially or fully disassembling and reassembling the shed, which is not typically recommended for frequent changes.
Does the shed require any painting or sealing?
No, thanks to its Evotech panels, the Keter Newton Plus Shed does not require any painting, staining, or sealing, making it a truly low-maintenance storage solution.
Troubleshooting
Doors do not close or align properly.
Ensure the shed is installed on a perfectly flat and level surface. Uneven ground is the most common cause of door misalignment. Check all base frame connections and wall panel insertions to confirm they are seated correctly. Adjust as needed.
Water appears inside the shed after rain.
Verify that all roof panels are securely fastened and that the skylight and window seals are properly installed and intact. Check that all wall panels are fully engaged and that any drainage channels are clear of debris. Confirm the shed base is level to prevent water pooling or runoff intrusion.
Interior feels stuffy or damp.
Ensure that the built-in ventilation openings are not obstructed by stored items or debris. Proper airflow is crucial for preventing humidity buildup and maintaining freshness inside the shed.
