Select a site:
A level site is desirable. Choose a site that offers some protection for the Tunnelhouse from strong winds. Face the door away from
the pre-dominant wind if possible. The Tunnelhouse is already partly pre-assembled. We suggest you take your time and allow
yourself a weekend to erect the frame and fit the covering. Call us on Free Ph. 0508 733 728 with any questions during assembly
For standard sites, place a 600mm ground peg at 1m apart along the length and width of the building. If your ground is sandy or loose
or if you have a windy site, then ground pegs will need to be longer or spaced closer together to ensure that the Tunnelhouse is well
secured to the ground. (See below
Foundation and base rail(s)

Usually it is best to complete the foundation of the Tunnelhouse before placing the Tunnelhouse in place. If using ground pegs only
hammer these in before the cladding is fitted.
