11: Install the Roof Panel and Windows
. Position the Roof Panel
over
the Coop Legs and Roof Gables (11.1). Make sure to
orient the Roof Panel in order for the Roof Panel predrilled holes to fall over the side of the coop where the floor ramp is. Expect
a fairly tight fit and make sure that the roof is all the way down and even on each sides before starting to install the screws.
Secure using the 1.5” screws and predrilled holes (11.2). Repeat for the back side. Note that the side of the Roof Panel falling
over the Nesting Box Panel Side of the coop does not get secured with any screws (11.3). Position the windows as per 11.4
making sure that it will close without any interference with the Roof Panel wooden structure. You should expect a tight fit.
Secure using the 1.5” screws and predrilled holes. Repeat for the back side. Please note that in warmer climate installing the
windows is optional.
