Tips for Installing a Portable Garage

If you are planning to purchase a portable garage you’ll install yourself there are a few things you should know. Setting up a portable garage isn’t difficult but here are steps you should take to make the job easier:

• Location is key – Consider the best possible location for your portable garage. You’ll want it near the house so you can access it easily, but not too close. You also want to make sure it’s on level ground. If you can’t find level ground, you can try to make it level by using concrete blocks or wooden planks.
• Anchoring systems – Your portable garage needs to be anchored down so make sure your garage kit comes with an anchoring system or purchase it separately. Make sure you have the right kind of anchor depending on whether you’re placing your garage on grass or asphalt.
• Installation steps – Once you’ve decided on size and location, plot out the area for the size structure you purchased and drive stakes with a hammer. Then set up the poles and brace them for security and thread the tarp over the poles. Most portable garages set up very easily and come with clear directions so follow them carefully for easy installation.
• Get some help – none of the parts for your portable garage are heavy, but they can be bulky and you don’t want to damage your new garage. It’s best to work in teams so get help and you’ll get the job done faster.
