There are multiple ways to level your floor frame. Our recommended leveling method is shown below.

 

Leveling materials are not included in this kit.

PREFERRED METHOD - 4x4 TREATED RUNNERS

centers of 4x4's.

  angled into 4x4.

• (2) at each point frame

 and 4x4 touch.

12"

(30,5 cm)

12"

(30,5 cm)

• Level under 4x4 runners only.
• Locate leveling material 12" (30,5 cm) from ends of runners and no more than 48" (121,9 cm) apart.
• Asphalt shingles should be used between 4x4 runners and blocks or treated lumber. Never use

 

   shingles in direct contact with ground. 

• For best results and aiding in water drainage use gravel under each concrete block.
