These folks,known to the outside world as "theAmish", have been building family heirlooms for over two centuries. The Amish, a deeply religious sect, areknown world wide for their old-world craftsmanship. They drive horse andbuggies and refrain from many "worldly trappings" such as electricity, tele-phones and automobiles.

The HomePlace Collection of products is built by a carefully selected group oflocal Amish craftsmen. Among the hundreds that we could work with, weonly feature products from those that best meet our stringent requirements:

• Painstaking attention to quality• Design innovation• Timeliness of production• Efficient, cost effective operations• Great value

About our products....Our promise of excellence...

I proudly bring you Suncast's HomePlace Collection - a family business with a history of woodworking that

goes back many generations. Although we are one of the leading national suppliers of fine-quality out-

door products, we have not forgotten our heritage. We promise to continue the legacy started many

years ago - a legacy of quality, integrity, honest business dealings, and value.

My father, who was my hero and mentor,

spent much of his life as an Amish crafts-

man. Although he passed away in 1983,

my mother and many of my Amish rela-

tives keep me connected to a simpler,

quieter way of life.

The HomePlace Collection by Suncast was

born out of the warm memories that I have

of the home where I spent my childhood days. As the youngest of eight children, I was taught early on

the meaning of hard work and the need to build quality into everything I do.

Basic pricing for individual units of various sizes is listed on our website. We recognize that this is a big pur-

chase, and we are committed to not surprising our customers with hidden costs. During the order process,

you will receive a price quote that details all costs involved with the purchase. We are sure that you will find

us helpful, friendly, and easy to deal with.

We invite you to check and compare other outdoor buildings in the market. Consider the quality. Consider the

workmanship. Look closely at the details. Then consider the cost, style, craftsmanship and affordability. The

HomePlace Collection by Suncast has it all. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you enhance your

homeplace.

Carl Smucker, founder

HomePlace Structures by Suncast is proud to

help make dreams come true for Make-A-Wish

children; we’ve worked with dozens of local

Make-A-Wish chapters across the country.

These seriously ill children are always delighted

to receive these tangible gifts where they can

dream, play, and simply enjoy life.

The HomePlace Collection provides a

variety of structures that add comfort, enjoyment

and function to properties nationwide, accenting

homes, parks, businesses and gardens. Included

are Play Products such as playhouses and play-

sets, Open-Air Structures such as gazebos, pavil-

ions and pergolas, and Enclosed Buildings such

as garden buildings, pool houses, garages and

sun houses.

Our Design Consultants are experienced with

helping property owners select the right products

and best prepare for their structure to be

delivered. Whether your purchase is for a

residence or a commercial location, we under-

stand that projects often involve more than

simply buying one item and placing it on site. Our

objective is to be clear about what is and isn’t in-

cluded in our offerings, all with an understanding

of your context. There are some things such as

site preparation which you will need to manage,

and the following pointers will help you make

thorough decisions.

Play ProductsConfirming your site:

Measure the proposed area where you would like to locate your play product. Note the length

and width of your space, and remember to consider the height if you’re placing your playset or

playhouse under trees. For safe play, allow at least 3-4 feet around the perimeter. The area where

the unit is installed should be level, especially for base units.

For playsets, choose your ground cover:

Selecting your ground cover is one of the most important and most overlooked safety features for

playsets. No matter how careful they are, children may fall! If so, you want their landing to be as

safe and injury free as possible.

We recommend installing one of these three types of ground cover: lush turf grass, 6” of bark

mulch, shredded rubber mulch.

Playhouse features and considerations:

The interior is designed to remain dry in inclement weather. These are complete structures that

include the floor, walls, and roof. Much like a real home, toys left out in one of our custom-built

playhouses will be safe, dry, and secure. Children can even play in the playhouse on a rainy day

without getting wet!

Each of our custom built playhouses reflect the quality and the expert workmanship of the Amish

men who construct them – the unit may be in your back yard long after your little ones no longer

play in it! The playhouse can then be used as a storage unit, garden building, small workshop or

craft station.

Not only do you have a choice of 22 different paint and trim colors, you also get to choose from 12

asphalt shingle colors. Most people match their playhouse colors to their existing home.

Open-Air StructuresWhen choosing an open-air structure, site location and preparation are extremely important. The

exact foundation preparation will depend on the size and model of the product you choose. You

may need to secure permits and ensure engineering needs are met for the placement of these

structures. We can provide you with engineering information on many of our structures.

Gazebo considerations:

Typical selection process includes this series of steps:

1. Select the shape – octagon, oval, or rectangle.

2. Choose whether you want a one or two-tier roof.

3. Add a parquet floor to a wood gazebo or a composite floor to vinyl, as desired.

Pre-Cut Kits: Pre-cut kits provide the parts you need,

ready for assembly and packaged in the most efficient

way possible. All the lumber is pre-cut but not pre-as-

sembled, as is the case with the modular units. These kits

are delivered as a compact package on a pallet that is ap-

proximately 4 ft. x 8 ft.

Modular Kits: The modular kit delivery is generally one of the most cost-effective methods of delivery. This kit isbuilt in modular sections in our shop. These modular sections are then stacked on a single large skid andtightly shrink-wrapped.

Assembled Units: If the delivery site is accessible, our

drivers can bring the unit already assembled. The unit

arrives fully built, and our driver places it exactly where

you want it, using state-of-the-art equipment.

Please note that fully-assembled deliveries may not be

possible or cost-effective for all units.

Delivery and On-Site Assembly: These units are shipped

as either pre-cut or modular kits and are then assembled

by our HomePlace delivery crew on site. Our crews have

tremendous experience installing our products correctly

and in the least amount of time. Your Design Consultant

will quote rates based on the size of the project and the

distance from our warehouse .

Pavilion considerations:

Most customers will find themselves drawn to either one or the other family of custom

pavilions based on appearance factors. The Traditional pavilions feature clean design

lines and spacious openings and ceilings. The Renaissance pavilions include superb

design details such as arched headers and round columns. Either way, your HomePlace

pavilion will be a centerpiece of beauty even after enduring extreme weather conditions

including intense heat, wind, rain and snow.

The construction of larger pavilions introduce design considerations such as size of

posts, numbers of posts, and fastening systems. Some settings require pavilions that are

rated for specific wind or snow load factors. Our experience working with specific

engineering needs is a benefit to you, and our Design Consultants will work with you to

understand and make sure your needs are addressed.

Pergola considerations:

Typically the biggest decision in choosing a pergola is whether one prefers the gleaming

maintenance-free look of vinyl or the more traditional character of wood. Sizing of

pergolas is fairly flexible, and we often create pergolas to match the dimensions of

existing patios and decks.

HomePlace pergolas have elegant posts or columns, and a “just right” amount of inter-

esting superstructure “top” components. Your pergola will need to be secured to a solid

foundation, such as directly to concrete, or secured to a deck that is secured to its own

foundation.

Enclosed BuildingsThe HomePlace Collection of garden buildings and garages cover a wide range of sizes,

from the smallest Legacy garden building up to the largest garage. Whether you need

70 or 700 square feet, we can help you find the choice that is right for you.

Some of your initial decisions will probably include the following:

• Intended use

• Size of building

• Architectural style

• Number and types of doors and windows

• Inclusion of porch or deck

• Inclusion of partition or loft

Something to keep in mind when buying a garden building is what use the building will

serve now and years from now. Many customers buy a building which is used as a play-

house while their children are young, and then convert its use to a garden building later

on. No matter your use, you may want to start by identifying a few styles that are

appealing to you, and then work with our Design Consultants to fully understand the

features and benefits of particular models.

We will gladly answer your many questions on the phone or via email, and will create a

price quote for you to help you completely decide. It is an honor to work with property

owners across the country, and we look forward to working with you.
