EZBUILDER 7 x 8 Foot Peak Roof Storage Shed Garage Barn DIY EZ Framing Kit with 24 Galvanized Steel Angles and 12 Base Plates (No Wood Included)

My web research determined this Amazon offering by Spreetail is likely the sole source of METAL framing kits today, and it's most certainly at a favorable price point - BUY NOW before they run out of stock. Seller Spreetail dramatically-exceeded expectations around customer relationship management and order fuilfillment. Toward the kit, I am extremely-impressed and happy with its modularity, flexibility, and scalability, and the instruction set included in the kit is easy to use. Toward Spreetail, I am extremely-impressed with their focus on getting things right, and attention to detail on the back end of my transaction. Please be advised that enabled by this kit, your project will not go together like TinkerToys or Lincoln Logs (e.g. if you've never built anything before, you will be learning a lot as you go, and thus should set your project duration expectations accordingly). However, for those more experienced builders seeking time savings, reduced complexity, and risk management (from not having to layout angles and ensure you cut them correctly...), this is THE superior product. (I cannot imagine why anyone would consider using the competing plastic fittings for this...)

Everything is good, everything as expected in the advertisement, good material, fast delivery, reasonable price, very satisfied, highly recommend

In the future I would buy thicker material. These are suitable for a small shed or chicken coop perhaps but nothing bigger. They are of a good design and the price was affordable. I bought 3 sets in total, all from Amazon Warehouse Deals. They had been returns. I got what I paid for so all good. Just not 5 star quality.

Got two if these kits for our chicken coop build. The brackets are a bit on the flimsy side, but overall very happy how it turned out. Make sure you get the straightest wood your HD/Lowes carries, as we went for a custom 8x16 chicken coop. It was a big PITA getting those 2x16 on the sides and the top (just me and my SO). Be ready for a bit of a fight, but overall this has helped us tremendously.

I bought 2 kits to build the larger 8x14 shed. In the end it's pretty solid but be prepared to get creative while building it. The trusses are supposed to accept a 2x4 to form a spine along the peak and where the sides meet the roof support. Not even close. I checked my cuts and verified everything was square but the opening was too small for a standard 2x4. i tried hammering, prying and finally settled with getting out a chisel and removing about 1/8 inch of wood from the 2x4 where it slotted into the truss. Then there is the 6 1x4x8ft boards that the materials list had you buy but are not used any where in the instructions. Finally, using the roof sheathing according to the directions results in a huge overhang. Probably not the worst thing as it will keep water away from the sides and base but it looks a little goofy and resulted in another trip to the hardware store for an additional bundle of roof shingles.

This has to be one of the easiest sheds I've ever built. The only thing that I would note is that this does require two people well the one person can do it it's very hard. Also there were no instructions for the front door/doors on this. I was able to build mine not a problem because I have experience with this but for someone doing this the final part is not easy if they've never built a door before or squared one. Put this up as a chicken coop and it's going to work great hopefully for many years.

This kit is JUNK. Not packaged well and cheap, stamped metal. Idk how so many people here give 4-5 star positive reviews. If you look at the real reviews at the big box stores these items rank poorly and I wish I would have read those reviews. I build this on an engineering table and as square as possible with the big box store nominal lumber and I all I did was fight and destroy my sanity. Not easy to use. Not sturdy and I really suggest you do not go buy all the lumber and materials, do not cut them to their specs. You’ll end up wasting hundreds of hard earned dollars on lumber to find out the brackets are bent, warped and nonconformity and the brackets and flimsy, weak and you can not just fit lumber together without tweaking, modification and struggle. This is not a 1 person job once you lose your energy and sanity fighting with this garbage. Go read the real reviews at the big box stores to see the truth.

The brackets make things a lot easier to build a shed
