FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the storage box?
The storage box measures 80 cm in length, 50.5 cm in width, and 50 cm in height.
Is the box waterproof?
The steel construction is designed to be weather-resistant and protect items from rain, but it is not hermetically sealed. Ensure items are dry before storing.
Does this product come in other colors?
Yes, it is available in Black, White, Silver, and a Rusty finish.
Can this box be left outside all year round?
Yes, the steel is treated for outdoor use, though it is best kept in an area protected from extreme standing water or snow buildup.
Is the box lockable?
The standard design focuses on the gas-lift mechanism; if security is a priority, consider using a compatible external locking bracket.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not open or close smoothly
Ensure the box is placed on a completely level surface. If the unit is tilted, the frame may torque and interfere with the lid alignment.
Visible water inside after heavy rain
Check that all exterior fasteners are tightened fully to ensure panels are flush and water-tight.
Gas-lift hinge feels stiff
Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the hinge point to restore smooth movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly is straightforward but should be performed on a flat, solid surface to ensure all panels align correctly, which is vital for the gas-lift mechanism's longevity. It is recommended to use a manual screwdriver to avoid overtightening the hardware. For routine care, simply wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soapy water to remove dust or debris. During severe winter months, avoid placing the box in areas prone to heavy standing water or extreme ice buildup to keep the steel in peak condition. Ensure the storage box is placed away from heavy, overhanging foliage that may drop debris into the hinge mechanism.
