If your shed has a concrete slab oor, position the frame onto the base. Note: if the shed oor is against a house or fence, you can
position the shed after it has been built (but before you install the roller door).
Please note that the design of the shed means that the wall cladding protrudes below the bottom timber plate. So that you are able
to build the shed properly you will need to temporarily screw some timber blocks under the bottom plate to lift it up so that the wall
cladding clears the ground while you build the shed. These will be removed when the shed is ready to position.

Waterproong is important to prevent leaks and keep the timber framing dry. Your shed has been supplied with a roll of DPC tape (Damp Proof
Course)
If your shed is positioned on a concrete or raised timber oor it is important that you install the DPC before attaching the cladding to prevent water
owing between the bottom plate and oor.

Repeat the above steps with each side wall until you have nished the back and two end

--IMPORTANT -- Make sure you align the side wall corrugate sheets with the back wall so
that the ribs line up.

The front wall cladding is attached the same way as the other side walls, except that the bottom cladding sheets either side of the roller door will
overlap a lot more than the side and back walls. This will be explained in the step below “BOTTOM SHEET”.

DOOR SIDE CLADDING - BOTTOM SHEET
