Rib

(F) Channels with
cutouts (as shown).
Note that the cutouts go to the inside of the panel to
allow easy fitment of end walls on assembly

A.Join (A) 1830 sheet to (D) or (C)
740mm sheet depending on which
way door is to swing.
B.Use (H) door spacer to determine
the correct opening size by placing
on the bottom flange of the door
jambs. Then fit (F) channels to tops
and bottoms of sheeting.
Spacer
Channel
Door jamb on inside
Just join the sheets together and fit the channels to the top and bottom of the sheets as a
framing to make 4 walls and the roof. Follow these basic steps:….
1.
Front Wall:
Layout (A) 1830mm sheet, (C) sheet with door jamb attached and (D) door with the sheet
attached beside them to your preferred configuration and join sheets. Cap the sheets with (F) 3000 channels
(2 sided cutout - Top and 1 sided cutout - bottom). Use (H) Door spacers to make sure door fits gap OK
(they sit on top of the jambs). Drill & Fix (Rivet or screw) at every 2nd rib. Attach door spacer at each end
thru door jambs and channels. 4 fixings underneath into sheeting pan top and bottom. Fit padbolt.
2.
Back:
Join 4 (A) 1830mm Sheets together. Cap with (F) Channels and fix thru every 2nd rib and at least 1
fixing per sheet thru the back of the channel into the pan of the sheeting.
More in high wind areas.
3.
Roof
:
Join 4 (A) 1200mm Sheets together. Cap with (E) 3000mm Channels. Fix @ every 2nd rib. Attach (G)
1200 “L”s to ribs at each end of sheeting at corners and 400mm apart in between. Same for 2nd roof panel.
Fit Ridge Beam (I) to one of the roof panels and fix through the bottom flange and at ends.
4.
End walls:
Measure 1145mm to centre of (E) 2290mm channels and cut flanges only (not right through). Join 3 (B) sheets
together to form gable wall. Cap with (E) 2255mm channels at bottom and bend 2290 channels over the top. Slip (J) Gable
plates up under top channel in centre of gable and fix to ribs. Fix channels at corners, every 2nd rib in between and in the
centre of the gable. 3 - 4 fixings up underneath into pan of sheeting and gable plate, top and Bottom. Same for other end.
5.
Assembly:
You have now made up your 6 panels. It‟s just, Join the corners and put the roof on! Make sure you have at
least 6 fixings down each corner when you join the walls. Place, centralise & fix the roof panel that has the ridge beam fitted
on thru the “L” into the top channel on both end walls. 1 at each end for now. Place, centre and fix to the other end wall.
Slip the 2nd roof panel into ridge beam and fix. Inside: up into ridge beam and outside: thru “L”s every 400mm. You now
need to fix down thru every 2nd pan in the roof into the top channels on the front and back walls.
More in high wind
areas.
Please make sure that you have removed all swarf filings as the rust spots that they produce may hinder any war-
ranty claims.
Generally most fixings are spaced at 300mm apart
Keep fixings in the pans as close to the ribs as possible for added strength.
Ribs will always protrude to the outside of the shed.
Extra
internal fixings is strongly recommended in high wind areas.
Drawings are diagrammatic
and are not necessarily to
detail.
To hinge the door on the opposite
side - simply put the top channel on
the bottom and bottom on top.
You will need:
(A) 1 x 1830mm sheet
(C) 740 wide sheet with door jamb
(D) Pre-hinged door and sheet
(F)
1
top and
1
bottom Channel
(H) 2 x Door spacers
Channels will come
short of ends of
sheeting by 10 -
15mm on all panels
Fix through top and
bottom of channels into
Door jamb & spacer
C.
Outside:
Fix channel at
corners and every 2nd rib
between and thru door
jambs and spacer
D.
Inside
: One fixing per sheet
at each end up thru channel
underside and thru door
jambs/spacer
E. Fit padbolt to the outside of
door.
Note: Higher side of channel
goes to inside of shed

2: Back Wall
(A)
(F)
(F)
(A)
(B)
A. Join 3 (B) sheets together to give a gable end wall as shown.
B. Make a cut in the flanges only at (1145mm) the centre of the 2290 channels
C. Cap the bottom of the sheets with a (E) 2255mm channel and bend the cut 2290
channel over the top of the sheets. Fix at corners only for now.
D. Slip (J) Gable plate under channel at the top and fix to sheeting at the „s
E. Fix the channels at every 2nd rib and thru gable plate into sheeting ribs.
F. 3 fixings up underneath thru channel into pan of sheet
G.
Perform the same again for the other end.
4: End Walls
Door Brace Kit
A.The Door braces can be fitted now or
after you have assembled your shed.
B.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 oppo-
site way to the diagram.
C.Fix the “Z”s at the ends and in the cen-
tre to the channel it is tucked under and
thru the overlap in the centre. 2 or 3
more rivets will be required thru the
door sheeting into the “Z”, but they will
need to be fixed
through from the out-
side of the door for
neater appearance.
D.You may need to cut
or bend the flange at
the bottom and top of
the “Z” if it catches on
door jamb when open-
ing or closing.
Padbolt
“Z” Brace
