12x10 & 12x12 eCONO Apex Shelter
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
Fit the first full-length roof sheets starting from the back at the left-hand side (note 10ft deep shelters only need one full sheet to reach from
eve to apex) ensure the edge of the first sheet fits tight into the bargeboard on the gable end and ensure the overlap to back of building is
adequate for water run-off. Make sure you leave a 20mm gap back from the ridgeline, this gap will be covered by the ridge cap. Continue
fitting the back run of sheets. For 12ft deep shelters fit the half sheet needed directly above the bottom sheet noting a good cover of overlap
and 20mm gap at ridgeline. Use 4 roof nails per purlin per sheet.
Do not put a nail where the next sheet overlaps until the next sheet is fitted
(allow min. one roll overlap). Do not nail the top of the sheet at the first apex purlin as this will be fixed when the ridge cap is fitted. You may
need to stretch sheets to fit the width of your shelter exactly.
Repeat the above for the front section of the roof. Install ridge caps- nail
through the bottom of ridge cap flat section and sheet beneath into the top purlins either side of the apex- thus fixing the top of the sheet
previously left unfixed- allow 70-100mm overlap.
ONLY FIX THROUGH THE TOP OF A ROLL-not in the gutter-ONLY BANG IN ENOUGH TO GIVE
A TIGHT FIT OF THE NAIL CAP TO THE SHEET, OR YOU WILL DISTORT THE SHEET PROFILE
PLEASE NOTE- 10ft deep
shelters only use full
sheets- the half sheet
shown in the picture is
not required.
