FAQs

Can this store fit two bins?

No, this model is specifically designed for a single standard-sized wheelie bin.

Does it come with a base floor?

The unit is designed to sit directly on your driveway or patio, providing an open base for easy bin movement.

Is the material waterproof?

The materials are weather-resistant and designed for outdoor use, standing up well against rain and sun.

What kind of plants can I put in the planter?

The planter is versatile and suitable for most shallow-rooted plants like annual flowers, small grasses, or herbs.

How do I secure the bin to the tilt mechanism?

The unit includes an integrated support chain system that attaches to the bin, allowing it to tilt forward safely for easier access.

Troubleshooting

Door is difficult to open or close

Check if the base is on a level surface. Uneven ground can cause the frame to twist, affecting door alignment.

Bin lid does not align with the storage unit opening

Adjust the support chain length inside the unit to ensure the bin sits at the correct angle when tilted.

Visible water pooling in the planter

Verify that the planter drainage holes are not blocked by debris or compacted soil.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your bin store, place the unit on a flat, level surface to prevent door misalignment. During assembly, ensure all fasteners are tightened securely to maintain the structure's rigidity. For care, wipe down the exterior periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. When using the integrated planter, ensure you have proper drainage to protect your plants and prevent water from pooling inside the structure. It is recommended to periodically check the support chain for any signs of wear and adjust the tension if the bin feels unstable during the tilting process.
