The siding is made in 4x8 sheets with grooves
cut into the face, the long edge is beveled so that
the siding overlays where they butt.
To identify which edge we want you to use, we
will refer to the edge as either the 'LAP' Edge or
the Tongue Edge. Nail siding with 8d galvanized
box nails, spaced 8" apart.
Exterior Siding
Download the most current instruction book at www.barnkits.com; use the "manuals"
link on the menu bar and then select your building kit and size.
Thank you for purchasing our kit. The material that is included in our kit is listed on the back
page. The optional floor package, siding, roof sheathing and longer 1x6 fascia trim will be
supplied by a local lumber supplier.
Our kit does not include the shingles, the quantity needed is listed on the back page. The
siding is primed. You will need to apply a finish coat using latex acrylic paint.
Our framing lumber is imported to provide you the highest quality available. However, if
you need to replace any lumber for any reason please do so and we will reimburse you.
IMPORTANT: Unpack the material from the pallet, then unscrew the bottom 2x4s from the
pallet runners. The bit for the screws is packed in the hardware bag.
Stacking the boards, according to size, will make them easier to find when needed. Some
boards may have colored ends. Do Not discard any material until your building is complete.
If you have any questions about assembling the kit, call 800-245-1577. If you are calling
after normal business hours, call 724-866-HELP (4357) or email to [email protected].
Before you begin construction, be sure to study this assembly manual. Also, obtain a building
permit and check all pertinent building code regulations.
Thank you for your purchase.
