StyleBox

A foundation must be erected for the Storage Sheds and the Equipment Locker. Please refer to our foundation tips.

A level, solid hard surface is required for the HighBoard as well as for the Romeo Patio Locker. These products must be anchored to this hard surface with the screws and dowels supplied.

The outdoor boxes (LeisureTime Box, LoungeBox and StyleBox) must also be installed on a level, solid surface. These products do not need to be secured to the ground.

No specific specialist skills are required for assembly. A detailed assembly manual is supplied with our products.

This depends on a few factors:

• The skill of the "assemblers" and how many there are of them
• The weather conditions (never build in windy weather!)
• The space situation (at least 27.5" of space all-around)

Because we have years of experience, however, we can give guideline values. Please note that these estimates relate purely to the time taken for the work. Please read the assembly manual beforehand, including all notices. 

Safety advice for each product can be found on the opening pages of the assembly manual.

Basically: 
Keep all small parts or packaging materials supplied away from small children during assembly. Some components have sharp edges or protrude. This should be borne in mind when assembling the product and during daily use. Gloves are included and can be used if necessary.  

Note that relatively high temperatures may develop in the storage shed (heat generation similar to that in a car). Find out the storage conditions for the products stored in the storage shed from the respective manufacturers.   

Biohort products need very little care due to the high-quality materials used and careful workmanship. Simply lubricate the lock and hinges every year. A high-pressure cleaner can be used (maintain a distance of at least 3.9" between the lance and the lacquer. Do not use a steam cleaner. Max. pressure approximately 1160 psi).

The gutter should be cleaned several times a year, to ensure optimum drainage. If the gutter is blocked, it may overflow. No liability can be accepted for any resultant damage.  

IMPORTANT: Sea air/ambient air containing salt water and/or salt, aggressive and abrasive cleaning agents, road salt, fertilisers, fresh concrete, screed materials and other chemical substances (never store this type of product in the open) can attack the lacquer and zinc surface, thereby leading to corrosion. Warranty claims are no longer valid in such cases. 

During the winter, it can generally be assumed that the temperature inside the product will equate to the outside temperature as there is no insulation.

Biohort products can heat up on exposure to prolonged sunlight in the same way as cars. Regular ventilation is required in this respect in order to regulate the temperature.

Biohort products do not emit any sounds on exposure to cold and heat as the steel plate has a very low material expansion coefficient (considerably lower than aluminium, plastic or concrete, etc.).

The storage boxes are not delivered with castors. However, if you would like to fit castors to the boxes, furniture castors can be attached to a base plate and the box fitted on top. Please note that most of our products must be secured to a base or subsurface. Biohort cannot accept liability for any damage caused by insufficiently secured products.

Biohort products can withstand the following surface loads when applied evenly:

Highline, AvantGarde and Europa Storage Sheds, Equipment Locker: 31 psf
HighBoard, LoungeBox, LeisureTime Box, Romeo, Alex, StyleBox: 66 lbs.

LeisureTime Box/LoungeBox:
4–6 plastic feet are mounted depending on the size of the storage box. These are not height-adjustable.

StyleBox:
The adjustable feet are height-adjustable from 0.4" to 1.1".

HighBoard:
The height of both feet can be adjusted up to 0.7" on the front left and right. As the floor panel should rest entirely on the hard surface, feet height can be adjusted only for precise alignment.

Romeo Patio Locker:
The feet can be adjusted by up to 0.9" on the inside.

Please note that Biohort storage boxes such as the LeisureTime Box, Romeo Patio Locker, HighBoard, StyleBox and LoungeBox offer secure storage against driving rain. However, there are ventilation slits for air circulation. Seat covers/cushions/blankets absorb any humidity and should therefore not be stored in the outdoor boxes in winter due to the risk of mould stains.

LeisureTime Box/LoungeBox/StyleBox:
The floor of these outdoor boxes can withstand an even load of 44 lbs. We recommend placing an XPS hard foam panel with a thickness of 1" underneath the box in order to store heavier objects (inside the adjustable feet).

HighBoard/Patio Locker:
These storage boxes are delivered with a base plate underlay. A full surface load of up to 44 lbs can therefore be applied.

Biohort colors do not correspond to any RAL number but some of them share similar features to RAL numbers. We recommend that you view the original color samples at our dealers.
