SNAPTiTE ASSEMBLY GUIDE
The Snaptite Assembly System locks end channels to all roof and wall sheets without the need for
tools and fasteners.
To assemble each panel, the perimeter channels are secured to the top and bottom of each panel.
Gently tap the channel over the SNAPTiTE lugs on the sheet, working along the sheet.
Each perimeter channel must finish flush with the edges of the sheets. Simply tap the channel along
the sheets until each end is neatly flush. If you need to remove channels from the panels, slide it off
from the side.
Channel locks the shed panel into
position without the need for screws!
FASTENING SYMBOLS
Secure channel to sheeting by SNAPTiTE
fastening method.
Join components together with one
screw at this location only, as some
channels have extra holes that are not
required for this model of shed.
Do not join components together at
this location yet, as the screws may
obstruct further assembly of the other
components.
Join components together by pre-drill-
ing the holes first. Use one component as
template to mark where the holes are and
drill with a 3mm drill bit.

FITTING MESH PANELS
The mesh panels are fixed to the interior
of the wall panels.
There are six holes in the border of the
mesh panel, these align with holes in the
vertical jambs 70D in the wall panel and
are fixed with FAST001 screws.
The top and bottom FAST001 are to be
screwed from the inside of the panel.
The middle two are to be done from the
exterior.
If the panel is bowing out between
screws use additional fixings. Be sure to
predrill with a 3mm drill bit before using
additional FAST001 screws.
Repeat this for every mesh position.

(2) months or scrubbed with a mild acidic solution, such as vinegar, then rinsed with
water before being used in bird housing applications.

lower of the two to fix the mesh
panel.

For both feeder and drinker
REQUIRES:
RWG19 - Pipe (x1)
FAST007 - Saddle (x1)
FAST002 - Bolt (x2)
FAST005 - Nut (x2)
6mm drill bit
Centre the saddle on the widest face of
the pipe, 15mm from one end as shown.
Using the saddle as a template mark both
hole positions on the pipe and drill using
a 6mm bit.
Fasten with a nut and bolt through each
hole.
2 - Attach the end cap
For both feeder and drinker
REQUIRES:
RWG19 - Pipe (x1)
HC01 or HC02 - Feeder or Drinker (x1)
Silicone joint sealer and aplicator
Orientate the endcap so that its loop is
on the same side of the pipe as the top
loop fitted in the previous step.
A watertight seal is required for the
drinker unit. To do this a silicone joint
sealer is required to bond the endcap
to the pipe body. Select one that is
non-toxic and follow the instructions to
achieve the best result.
Apply the sealer to the outside of the
pipe, no higher than 20mm from the end,
press into end cap and let set.
TIP: Have a cloth handy to clean up any
silicone that may ooze out.
