GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
• Before commencing any assembly, read through these instructions in detail to gain a thorough
understanding of assembly methods and associated details.
• Unpack the carton and carefully identify and check off all the parts against the parts described
and illustrated on "COMPONENTS PACKING LIST" pages.
SITE PREPARATION
• The site for the shed must be level. An uneven surface may result in misalignment of parts.
• The shed shall be erected on top of a reinforced concrete slab and anchored down appropriately
illustrated on “FINAL CONSTRUCTION” page.
TOOLS REQUIRED
SAFETY NOTES
• Some parts may have sharp edges. It is advisable to wear gloves when handling these items and
safety glasses if drilling holes. Sensible shoes are highly recommended.
• Do not erect your shed in windy conditions.
• Ensure that the shed is securely anchored to a solid foundation immediately after construction is
completed.
• It is highly recommended to erect the shed with two or more people.

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.

Absco Sheds Storage Guidelines
• Absco Sheds are designed to be weatherproof for normal weather conditions. In the event of extreme
weather conditions such as heavy rain, combined with high wind gusts, the ridge capping, sheeting joins,
screw fixings etc., may exhibit minor deformations which may allow some water entry. These areas should be
checked regularly to ensure that maximum strength and protection is maintained.
• Other weather conditions such as extreme heat and extreme cold, moist or dry air can influence the effects
of concrete floor moisture and/or condensation on the underside of the roof sheets.
• Absco Sheds and storage units are primarily used for storage of garden equipment such as lawnmowers,
wheelbarrows, garden tools etc. Storage items that might be adversely affected by any of the above conditions
may require additional protection such as being sealed or covered by plastic sheets and/or stacked above
the concrete floor on timber slats.
• Waterproof sealants may be used to offer further protection where required around joins and screw fixings,
as can rubber door seals and other products which are available from most hardware outlets.
• Placement of waterproof sealants (silicone) between the base of the shed and concrete slab is not
recommended, as this process can have a reverse effect, preventing excess water from escaping, resulting
with water accumulating and being trapped inside the shed.
• Absco accepts no responsibility for water entry, floor moisture, condensation or the condition of the Contents
inside your Absco steel building arising from any of the pre-mentioned weather conditions.
