Once all Wall Sheets are lapped the Wall Channels can be fitted. Fit the 
Wall Channel over the lapped Wall Sheets. The end of the Wall Channel 
should fit up against the end of the Corner Wall Sheet (Figure 1.6).

Note: All Handi-Mate™ walls are assembled in the same 
manner. Refer to “Handi-Mate™ Model Sizes” section for 
specific wall sheeting quantities & configurations.

Handi-Mate Window Assembly

Stratco Shed Windows are avaliable as an optional add-

on. Refer to the “Window Installation” section at the 
end of this document if installing a Stratco Window, or 
visit a Stratco store for more information.

When assembling the Wall and Door Sheets, lay the sheets down on 

trestles

 

/

 

blocks (Figure 1.4). This will make assembly easier and reduce the 

risk of damage to components.

All underlap sheets can be identified as 
having a stepped ridge.

Place the Corner Wall Sheet down first. Lay the next Wall Sheet 

overlapping the Corner Wall Sheet (Figure 1.5). Subsequent Wall Sheets 
can be overlapped in the same manner. Refer to “Handi-Mate™ Model 

Sizes” section for specific wall sheet configurations.

Ensure pre-made pilot holes in the Wall Channel line up in the centre of 
the Wall Sheet crests (Figure 1.7). Pulling the Wall Sheet into place may 
be required to achieve this.
Note: Ignore the final two holes at the ends of the Wall Channels.
