Do I need anchor to install on asphalt and how heavy is the shed?

I would anchor... It's heavy but not heavy enough for 40mph winds or greater...

I anchored to wooden platform to keep square during construction and stay squared when you put shelves etc..You can move the shed easily if not anchored.

We have not put it up but it does say that you need to either anchor it, or install a bottom for it because it doesn't have a bottom with it. And it feels pretty heavy in the box but they said it can catch air on a windy day as well if not anchored to the ground.

I personally didn't use any anchors, and its being healdy up sturdily. I can pull on it with my hands (medium strength, of course) and its not budging.

Hi Sandy you would need a VERY Large Deck to accomodate the tent as it is quite large. We used it for several party and parked it on our driveway. Yes you can anchor it the grass.

Yes. Anchoring to an existing wooden structure is no problem. Just a few bolts needed.

Yes you would need the proper anchors which are easily found at hardware stores

drill your own holes. depending on how much your going to put in there probably wouldn't hurt to put a anchor in each corner

You can anchor the legs with sand bag weights. I have used on a concrete driveway.

The anchors are kinda cheap. I purchased self-drilling metal anchors that hold >50lbs at lowes instead. Larger, 6 inch exposed metal bracket on bottom. 2 small, ~2 inch slide brackets on top. Not hard.

On concrete you should not need the floor frame kit, or plywood. just a drill and a couple of concrete anchors. I bought the anchor kit and it was overkill, 4 anchors should be enough.

Anchoring is not included. You can buy an add on kit, or pour a cement slab.

it depends on the weight you intend to hang from the strip. i am hanging some basic tools and screws with plastic anchors seem sufficient. but as the weight increases, studs is what i would be looking for to anchor the strips.

No, it is very lightweight and doesn't hold anything heavy enough to require the anchor.

Yes, you need four of these to anchor the base completely. You might get by with just two opposite of each other in less windy areas. Remember, this is designed for a specific base type, having edges that extend along the ground surface and long enough to fit under the edges of the wedges. That said, it is very wind-durable... from what I've seen, wind will more likely bend the umbrella pole before it blows over these weights!

It's pretty heavy for just siding, it really needs to anchored to a frame of some sort. Good luck.

I anchored it to concrete, drilling anchor holes with a masonry bit. However, since asphalt is softer I would just drill a little deeper and use longer screws.

Yes, you definetly will need to anchor it into the ground. We attached 2x4's to the bottom and cemented it into the ground. It only took a few minutes.

You can anchor it to anything but I don't think the posts are suitable for anchoring in the ground. They are too short and hollow. I think in time they would settle and then lower your roof. Mixing the concrete for the footing was probably the easiest part of the whole thing. Don't know why you'd skip it.
