Well done you have finished the panels....
Points to note as you construct your shed:
Do not attempt to assemble panels in windy conditions
Make sure your foundations are squared and level before erecting panels.
It is easier to remove all swarf (filings) before you stand your walls up
Complete all panels before erecting your shed.
Keep a firm grip on panels when handling. If they slip they will cause damage.
Always wear non slip gloves protective footwear and eyewear
5: Now to join your corners and put your roof on....
1st: Stand up the back wall and as your helping hand is holding it up bring the Left end wall into meet it
at the left corner overlapping the corners as Fig 1. Drill & Fix at approx 100mm down from the top
and up from the bottom drilling and fixing from the outside.
2nd: Bring the Right end wall into the right back corner and perform the same again checking to make
sure the walls are sitting flat at the bottom
3rd: Bring the front wall into place and join the front corners to the end walls same as the back.
4th: Finish joining corners by fixing at approx 300mm apart. You will find it easier to drill
these corners if they are supported on the inside. Use the handle end of a hammer
into the inside of the corner, but beware of drilling holes in the end of your hammer.
5th: With a person at each end of the roof, waft it over top of your upright walls and lower
down on top with an overhang that looks best to you. At the left end fix thru the "L"
flashing into the top channel of the left end wall. Measure the overhang at the back and
fix the right end "L" to the right end wall with the same overhang as the Left end. If the
roof is difficult to get to the same overhang at each end this will be caused by unlevel
site or walls are not square. Adjust accordingly. Fix "L"s at approx 500mm's apart.
6th: Using your ladder and tape measure, fix down thru the top of the roof, thru the pan
into the top channel of front and back walls. (10mm more than the overhang). Fix be-
side every 2nd rib. (Fig 2). You will not need to worry about these fixings leaking as
any water seeping thru these fixings will end up on the outside of the walls.
7th: Attach padbolt to door strap and fit door braces if not already done so. Check that all
swarf is removed and most importantly....
8th: Fix your shed down to its foundations. If your foundations are unlevel or bowed, you
will have problems with your padbolt and door levels. This can be fixed by slipping a
spade under either door jamb and lifting. You will soon get a feel for which side needs propping up.

Quick Tips to keep in mind as I build my shed:
Try to remove swarf (drill filings) from panels as I assemble them.
My basic job is to cap the sheeting to make the panels. Drill & Fix.
All components are cut to length. Do not cut any parts unless instructed.
They are only a phone call away 0800 807 433 or email to [email protected]
Fixings thru the inside of the channels into the sheeting are just as important as the outside.
