QuickJACK-PRO (Soft Surfaces) Adjustable Shed Base Kit
QuickJACK-PRO Shed Base (Soft Surfaces) is an easy-to-fit adjustable base foundation for all garden buildings and decking. This innovative base system allows even the most basic DIY'er to achieve professional results in soil, grass (soft ground) in minutes. Important: If you have a hard surface ground such as paving slabs, monoblocks or concrete, please go to our NEW QuickJACK-HS (Hard Surfaces) instead. QuickJACK PRO (Soft Surfaces) system consists of three parts: heavy-duty screw-piles (spikes) which go down into the ground, brackets which fit onto your frame, and adjustable circular bearing-plates which spread the weight and can can be moved up and down easily using a 35mm spanner (not included) to level your base. The whole system is simple to use, and extremely fast... you can create a solid level base for your shed or summerhouse, or create a level deck, in minutes... with no ground levelling or preparation required . QuickJACK PRO (Soft Surfaces) has several which are suitable for square, rectangular, corner, hexagonal (6-sided) and octagonal (8-sided) buildings.QuickJACK PRO (Soft Surfaces) base system allows for precise levelling. It also keeps timbers off the ground ensuring your shed stays dry and well ventilated, and it anchors your building to the ground. QuickJACK PRO (Soft Surfaces) is made from heavy-duty zinc-coated components which are designed to last, and it is completely reusable, allowing for simple re-positioning of your garden building if needed.
NOTE: As well as the QuickJACK system, you will need to make a simple framework to support the floor of your garden building. We recommend using 4"x2" (approx. 100x50mm) pressure-treated battens (not supplied) which are very cost effective, however you can use large timber battens if you wish.

Much, much cheaper than concrete
The QuickJACK PRO (Soft Surfaces) is very easy to install. Simply choose the area you want to put your building (level is better, but it isn't necessary), fix the brackets to your upside-down frame, screw in the spikes and plates, flip the frame the right way up and tap into the ground. Level the frame using the adjustable plates, then you are done! VIDEO QuickJACK PRO (Soft Surfaces) component is machined right here in the UK using top-quality, heavy-duty, zinc-coated steel. They are VERY, VERY STRONG and each part is much stronger than the garden building that will be sitting on it (even when fully laden), so you don't need to worry about strength. We recommend that you use the correct size of bearing-plate though (i.e. large plate for large buildings) as this is what stops the shed sinking into the ground. There are 3-sizes of bearing plates, Small:150mm (6") capable of supporting 275kg per point, Medium: 200mm (8") which can support 500kg per point, and Large: 250mm (10") which can support 750kg per point!fast and easy to use with no ground preparation . There are many traditional shed and summerhouse base solutions available, and they all have their merits, however the QuickJACK PRO (Soft Surfaces) Base Solution is much cheaper than concrete, less labour intensive than paving slabs, faster than ProBASE or EcoBASE, and it's unique bearing-plate system doesn't continue to sink into the ground like most other existing spike-only base systems.

Reviewer: Chris Riordan from Dorset First time building a shed (it's 5m x 3m). Didn't want or need the hassle of a concrete base, and kinda wanted to be more green - QuickJACK PRO to the rescue. Brilliantly simple, and for a novice had it all set up, in place and solid in under 30 minutes. Would definitely recommend
Reviewer: Caroline Elliott from Had to tell you that QuickJACK Pro is brilliant. Was not looking forward to erecting our new shed, but with QuickJACK Pro the process was made so much easier. I think it took us about 7 minutes to level the base once we put it in place. Plus, if the shed shifts in level in the future I can readjust it. Sheer genius.
Reviewer: R Painter from Gloucester Just to let you know, received my Quickjack Kit no 4 and I must congratulate you on your service and the excellence of the product, many thanks.
Reviewer: Rob Clark from Bearsed, Maidstone I can't recommend this product highly enough.
I had ground that had a drop of about 12 inches front to back and then a tilt left to right, with no way of digging out. The prospect of trying to build up a base to that height AND make it flat was too much to even think about.
I built a frame for the base of the summerhouse, fixed the jacks at the correct points and just hammered them slowly into the ground.
I was able even to make a final adjustment after the flooring had gone on.
Also, the service from A1 sheds was top drawer, they helped me pick the right kit and even sent through a diagram for where I should put the spikes.
All well worth 5 stars!
Reviewer: Robert Short from Luton These were alot heavier and stronger than the pictures made them look. I got my entire shed up in one afternoon. Can't recommend it enough.
Reviewer: John Sleights from Birmingham Wow! I can't believe how easy this system was to use. Thanks for the quick turnaround.
