-
Oil door hinges once per year, using a silicon
lubricating spray or grease—do not use penetrating oil, such as WD-40, as
this is not a lubricant.
-
If you have wood siding, evaluate your siding
every few months for indications of insect attack or water damage. It
should be closely evaluated where the wood is in close or direct contact
with the soil. Areas where vegetation overgrowth has occurred are especially
susceptible to deterioration and mildew/molds.
-
Ensure your shed's vents are free at all times
for proper ventilation.
-
If your shed has windows installed, evaluate the
caulk seals every year for deterioration, and re-apply if necessary.
-
When using any sealant, primer, paint, or stain,
follow the manufacturer's recommendations for use and application.
-
Install eyehooks on doors to stabilize doors
when open. This prevents the doors from banging against the shed on
windy days.
