Ground Works
If you have purchased our legs and rails to mount your dome shelter onto, the below link refers to the post spacing required when erecting.
​
In general after choosing a suitable location to install your dome shelter, the below preparation steps are necessary:
-
support structure must be level to properly and safely erect and anchor the frame
-
water draining off the structure and from areas surrounding the site should drain away to prevent water damage to structure and contents inside and ensure ground integrity.
