Download the most current instruction book at www.barnkits.com; use the "manuals"
link on the menu bar and then select your building kit and size.
Thank you for purchasing our shed kit. Read the instructions before starting the assembly
of the building. If you have any questions about assembling the kit, call 800-245-1577.
Business hours (8:00-5:00 ET) Monday thru Friday.After business hours call 724-866- 4357.
or email to [email protected].
The material that is included in our kit is listed on the back page. The optional floor package,
if purchased, will be supplied by a local lumber supplier.
Our kit does not include the shingles, the quantity needed is listed on the back page. The
siding is primed. You will need to apply a finish coat using latex acrylic paint.
Some of the framing lumber was used in the shipping pallet. Unpack the material from the
pallets. Unscrew the OSB panels and the 2x4s from the shipping pallet. The 2x4s will be
used for wall bracing and to support the loft beams. The bit for the screws is packed in the
hardware bag.
Most buildings are installed on a wood floor and the siding was designed to extend over the
wood flooring. If the foundation is a concrete floor cut the siding flush with the bottom of
the wall plate to prevent the concrete from contacting the siding.
Stacking the boards, according to size, will make them easier to find when needed. Do Not
discard any material until your building is complete.
Before you begin construction, be sure to study this assembly manual.Also, obtain a building
permit and check all pertinent building code regulations for your area.
Thank you for your purchase.

1. Place trusses over the 'X' marks and secure
trusses to 2x4 truss plate using 2x4 hangers and
10d sinkers.
2. Locate 65-1/4" long soffit boards that have a
beveled edge. Install one of these boards flush
with the top of the siding and butting against
the rear gable trim. Secure soffit boards to the
top wall plate with 3" long screws spaced 8"
apart. Cut to fit and install a 48" soffit board
to fit behind 2x3 boards on the front gable.
Step 20 Install Trusses & Soffit Boards
Step 21A Install Roof Sheathing
1. Install a 42" x 72" OSB roof panel flush with
the face of the rear gable trim. Use a straight
edge to align the top of the sheathing with the
top of the truss. Continue adding sheathing
following the layout on the next page. OSB
will extend past front gable. Use 6d common
nails, spaced 6" apart.
2. Repeat step for opposite side.
