Because ShelterLogic products are not engineered buildings they CAN NOT be snow load rated. Proper anchoring of your structure minimizes the impact from snow. Keeping snow roff the roof area is strongly recommended.

Might be...but if so, that info isn't listed in Northern Tool's specs, nor could I find it on the ShelterLogic website. I can tell you from experience this winter, that it has no trouble with three feet of (admittedly dry) snow, and the snow only accumulated on the center of the roof. The hipped-roof causes most snow to slide right off the steeper part of the roof.

My "garage" is only 8 months old, but I know of another ShelterLogic structure that still looks good after 3 years, and our eastern WA weather gets to 105 degrees in the summer, -25 in the heart of winter. I'd guess you can expect at least 5 years before you note much deterioration. Maybe more. I doubt that Northern Tool sells replacement covers (haven't seen them listed)...but I think you can get them direct from ShelterLogic. They are really friendly, give them a call - 800-932-9344

The Garage-in-a-Box offers a one year limited warranty, but you can expect the cover to last much longer. If it is not subject to a heavy wet snow or heavy winds, it may last 5 years or so. You can get a replacement cover from ShelterLogic directly.

It is advised to remove any accumulated snow as the garage is not snow rated. The garage will not handle 3 feet of snow.

We had six feet of snow last year, with a max of 38 inches at one time. The GIB had no trouble with it. The structure of the frame gives it almost a gambrel roof (think barn), though slightly rounded. As a result, only the central six feet of the roof retains any snow at all -- snow just slides off the steeper outer slope. The color of the material that ISN'T covered with snow is dark, so the GIB heats up on the first sunny day, and all the remaining snow slides right off. I was amazed that on a windless sunny day when the temp outside was five below, the temp inside the GIB was about 50.

Question

PAINT SHED?

Wondering is spraying automotive paints will destroy the cover? Some of these paints will kill you if you breath them so I'm thinking they may melt this into a puddle but maybe not, plastics are used for respirators and paint suits
