ASSEMBLE SIDE PANELS
SELECT:
6 x 1850 Wall Sheets
2 x 1.520 Top Plates (Red)
2 x 1.520 Bottom Plates (Green)
72 x 30mm Galv Clouts
8 x Rivets
STEP 1:
Lay out 1 x Top Plate and 1 x Bottom Plate on a flat surface as shown
(corner cutouts to face outwards).
Measurements between Top and
Bottom plates are critical to ensure wall panels fit together.
STEP 2:
Place 3 x 1.850 wall sheets on top of timber plates, with sheets
flush with each other.
Rivet sheets together on overlaps as shown.
STEP 3:
Nail wall sheets to the Top Plate at each end
making sure that the top of the sheets are flush with
the top of the Top Plate and the sides of the wall sheet
overhang the Top Plate by approx 15mm as shown.
Check that the Top Plate is straight then nail
along the wall sheet to the Top Plate, two
clouts per pan (see
fig. 1
).
STEP 4:
Nail the wall sheets to the Bottom Plate at each end ensuring each
side of wall sheets overhangs the end of Bottom Plate by 15mm.
Check that the distance between the Top and Bottom Plates is
correct. (As per diagram in step 1)
Check that the Bottom Plate is straight then nail the wall sheets to
the Bottom Plate, two clouts per pan (see
fig. 1
).
Repeat with second side panel ensuring Top Plate is positioned in
the OPPOSITE direction to the first side panel, as shown.

IMPORTANT—IF YOU CHOOSE TO RAISE YOUR TIMBER
BASE PLATE –READ THE FOLLOWING;
For sheds with Raised Base Plate option only (see page 5), deduct
30mm from measurement shown between Top and Bottom Plates on
all wall panels, so cladding protrudes 20mm below bottom plate
.
15mm
Std Shed — Bottom Plate will protrude below wall
sheet by approximately 10mm.
Raised base plate shed — Wall sheet will protrude
below the Bottom Plate by 20mm
.
