What tools do I need to assemble a ShelterLogic structure?
Tools needed for ShelterLogic assembly:
- Required: Adjustable wrench or ratchet set (typically 7/16" and 1/2" sockets), Phillips screwdriver, tape measure, level
- Recommended: Power drill/driver (speeds up bolt insertion significantly), step ladder for roof assembly, work gloves
- For anchoring: Hammer for soil anchors, or hammer drill + 3/16" masonry bit for concrete anchors
- NOT needed: No welding, no cutting tools, no specialized equipment — all components are pre-cut and pre-drilled
Assembly time: 2-4 hours for small canopies, 4-8 hours for garages and large shelters. Two people recommended for all models; three people for structures over 20 feet.
