END WALL INSTALLATION
Both end walls are designed the same to allow for the installation of a second door kit if desired. Consult the end wall
diagrams
before
you begin.
The general steps to install the end walls include the following:
1. Prepare and secure posts for the door framing. (See End Wall Diagrams.)
2. Assemble and attach all end wall framing.
3. Prepare and attach end panel.
Install Ground Post for the Door Frame
The following steps describe one way to set the ground posts for the vertical end wall frame tubes.
1. At ground level, measure between the legs of the end rafter to locate the center of the end wall. Use a plumb line to
identify the center of the overhead rafter and mark that location on the ground as well.
NOTE:
Mark the center of the end wall so multiple measurements can be made as needed.
2. Using the dimensions shown on the diagram, locate the positions of the vertical frame members for the door framing.
3. Dig a 12” diameter hole at the locations found in previous step to a depth that is below the geographic frost line.
4. Add concrete to the hole. Concrete should remain at least 4" below ground level so that it does not interfere with
construction and installation of other end wall components.
5. Determine the required width of the door and insert one 1.75" x 1.75" square tube (104075) into the concrete
approximately 8". Repeat the step and verify that the tubes are plumb and the correct distance apart. Use the diagram
to space the vertical doorframe members.
1.75 x 1.75 square tube (104075):
8" exposed and 8" inches in the
concrete.
