Galvanized steel base frame for 10 × 12, 10 × 13 and 10 × 14 ft Arrowsheds: starts the shed square and off the ground.
Start your Arrowshed square and level. This galvanized steel base kit forms the frame under a 10 × 12, 10 × 13 and 10 × 14 ft Arrow shed: it squares the building, helps level the site and keeps the shed and what you store off the ground. Assemble it with the floor of your choice (exterior-grade plywood, patio blocks or gravel) before you build the shed, or use it as a form for a concrete pad.

What does an Arrow steel base kit do, and which shed sizes does each kit fit?
It is the frame that goes under the shed: it squares the building, helps level the site and holds the shed and its contents off the ground. Four kits: 4 x 7 and 6 x 5 ft; 8 x 6, 10 x 6 and 4 x 10 ft; 8 x 8, 10 x 8 and 10 x 9 ft; 10 x 12, 10 x 13 and 10 x 14 ft.
Do you build the base kit before or after the shed?
Before. Assemble and level the frame, lay the floor you have chosen, then build the shed on top — the frame is what keeps the walls square while you put them up. Two of the kits state their frame size: 120.06 x 67.81 in. and 120.06 x 142.31 in.
Does the Arrow steel base kit include a floor?
No. The kit is the hot-dipped electro-galvanized steel frame, 2 in. high, with all hardware and instructions. You choose the floor: exterior-grade plywood cut to the frame size, patio blocks or gravel — or use the frame as a form for a concrete pad.
Will an Arrow steel base kit fit an Elite or EZEE shed?
Only one of the four kits names a model exclusion: the 8 x 8, 10 x 8 and 10 x 9 ft kit (FDN109) is not for Arrow Elite or EZEE sheds. The other three list footprints only, so match your shed's footprint to the list on the kit you are buying.

Most steel sheds that fail early in Canada fail from the bottom up. This guide covers sizing the pad from the real foundation footprint, the four base types that work in a Canadian backyard, and the anchoring and snow-load details that keep a shed square.
The step up from a 10x12 changes much more than floor area: the doors get wider but not taller, the base stops being optional and the kit arrives on a freight truck. We compare the large metal sheds we sell in Canada on area, height, door opening, pad footprint and delivery weight.
