Maintenance.

We recommend that you treat your shed at the beginning of each season with wood preservative treatment. Apply in 
accordance with the manufacturers instructions.

Regularly check (1) All fixings are secure (2) Roofing felt is free of holes and tears (3) Sand off any rough/sharp edges.

Before fixing the Hasp to the door make sure that it is in line with the framing on the reverse and 
is positioned so that it will close over the Staple. Fix this in place using 3 x 25mm screws.

Position the Staple opposite, again making sure that it is in line with the framing behind and fix it 
in place using 2 x 25mm screws.
