13. Latch door handle
Position the Latch door handle about half way up the door as shown in diagram. Mark the position of the holes on the door. Remove the latch and draw two lines connect-
ing opposite corners, drill a 12mm diameter hole where the two lines cross. Put the latch bar in the hole on the back of the latch, then reposition the latch (putting the bar
through the drilled hole) and attach using 4 x 19mm black screws. On the other side of the door fit the inside door handle to the bar and then using 4 x 19mm black screws
attach the handle to the door. On the front of the other door position the latch holder so that it holds the latch horizontal. Once in position attach to the door with 2 x 19mm
black screws. With the doors shut, drop the lower tower bolt and mark where it touches the floor. Drill a 12mm hole in the floor for the bolt to fit in.

Important information
Shiplap buildings come ready stained but this is only a preparatory treatment. To
VALIDATE
the guarantee, the building must be properly treated with a recognised ex-
ternal wood preserver
WITHIN 3 MONTHS
of assembly and
RE-TREATED ANNUALLY
thereafter. The building must also be erected on 75mm x 50mm treated
wooden or similar bearers (These are not supplied with the kit.) Ground contact must be avoided.
Timber Information.
As timber is a natural material, there are certain weather conditions that may affect the materials properties. In times of excessive dry spells the material may lose some of
its internal moisture causing a certain degree of shrinkage on a panel and in periods of excessive rain there will be a certain amount of swelling throughout the wooden pan-
els. This process can not be avoided. If you have problems with certain boards shrinking in dry spells try to decrease the amount of direct sunlight on the building or the
amount of air passing over the building. During hot spells spray water directly onto the panels with the aid of a garden hose.
