An apparatus for accommodating level placement of a portable building on a support surface includes a foundation leg movable relative to the building and adjustable from inside the building. The length of the foundation leg which extends below the building to the support surface is determined by selectively engaging a bracket in slots in the foundation leg. An adjusting plate is coupled to the bracket and a threaded member is coupled with the adjusting plate. When the bracket engages a slot, the threaded member may be manually adjusted to raise and lower the foundation leg. A portable building adapted for level placement on a support surface may include a plurality of foundation legs and a corresponding number of locking devices for raising and lowering the foundation legs relative to the floor of the building. Each locking device includes a bracket, an adjusting plate and a manually operable member coupled with the adjusting plate. The building may be set or adjusted by moving one of the foundation legs in relatively large increments to a position which approximates a level condition for the building. Further movement in relatively large increments is prevented by securing the bracket in the slots of the foundation leg. Then, the leg may be moved in relatively small increments to obtain a level condition for the building by adjusting the manually operable member to either raise or lower the foundation leg by the desired amount.
