CHANNELS
Channels will end 15-20mm
short at tops of end walls
and 10-15mm at bottoms.
STEP 6
END WALLS
Cap the sloping sheets
E
with the 735mm 'U' channels
G
.
Fix the channels through the end ribs and every second rib in between.
Make sure you put at least two fixings up through the underside of the channel into the
pan of the sheet.
Repeat for other side wall with opposite slope.
STEP 7
DOOR BRACES
The door braces can be fitted now or after you have assembled your shed.
Tuck one end of the 'Z' between the bottom channel of the inside of the
door and the sheet. Do the same at the top, overlapping in the centre
behind the padbolt. If you have a locking 'T' handle you will have to run
the 'Z's the opposite way to the diagram.
Rivet the 'Z's at the ends, and in the centre of the channel it is tucked
under, and through the overlap in the centre. Two or three more fixings will
be required through the door sheeting into the 'Z', but they will need to be
riveted through from the outside of the door for a neater appearance.
You may need to cut or bend the flange at the bottom and the top of the
'Z' if it catches on the door jamb when opening or closing (diagram 1).
