FLOOR LEVELING OPTIONS

There are multiple ways to level your oor frame. Our recommended leveling method is shown below.

Leveling materials are not included in this kit.

PREFERRED METHOD - 4x4 TREATED RUNNERS

12"

(30,5 cm)

12"

(30,5 cm)

Measurements to

centers of 4x4's.

• 3" Screw angled into 4x4.

• (2) at each point frame

and 4x4 touch.

4x4 Runners

(not included).

• Level under 4x4 runners only.

• Locate leveling material 12" from ends of runners and no more than 48" apart.

• Asphalt shingles should be used between 4x4 runners and blocks or treated lumber. Never use

shingles in direct contact with ground.

• For best results and aiding in water drainage use gravel under each concrete block.

• A treated 2 x 4" (5,1 x 10,2 cm) sill plate is required when installing your shed on concrete. Hint: Use treated lumber in your kit or

purchase full length treated lumber.

• Use a high quality exterior grade caulk beneath all sill plates.

• Fasten 2 x 4" (5,1 x 10,2 cm) sill plates to slab using approved concrete anchors (fasteners not included).

• Check local code for concrete foundation requirements.

LEVEL AND SQUARE FLOOR FRAME

Before attaching oor decking, it is important to level and square the oor frame.

A level and square oor frame is required to correctly construct your shed.

1

Use level and check the frame is level before applying oor panels.

Check for frame squareness by measuring diagonally across corners. If the measurements are the

same, the frame is square. The diagonal measurement will be approximately 133-5/16" (338,6 cm).

When the frame is level and square secure one side of frame to the 4x4 runners using one fastener at

ends of each runner. At the opposite end of the frame, secure the frame to 4x4 runners with one fastener

at ends of each runner making sure the frame remains square (Fig. A).

Once the oor frame is level and square fasten the frame at each point the frame contacts the 4x4

runners.

See page 7 for the preferred oor leveling method.
