Step 1
Step 2
Affix your wallplate (no countersinks, batten at the
bottom) in the desired location, making sure that the area
directly in front of it is flat, level and able to support the
structure. Attach the wall plate using suitable fixings for
the wall construction. Measure in 400mm from each end
and use sufficient fixings so that the minimum distance
between them is 500mm, distributed evenly and vertically
centred across the wall. Ensure it is horizontal with a laser
or spirit level.
Layout the Base frame assembly and 2 x Edge joists (pencil
marks on top) in a rectangle and then place the remaining
cross joists roughly in place as shown here.
Step 3
Step 4
Attach the edge joists to the base frame assemblies using
2 x 75mm screws in the pre-drilled holes, making sure that
the ends are flush and everything is square.
Butt the end of the joist closest to the wall up to the end
of the side frame, make sure everything is flush and
aligned and then screw through the pre-drilled holes in
the side frame into the joist end using 2 x 75 woodscrews.
Repeat for the other side.

Line up the ends of each infill joist end with the markings
on the edge joists, making sure the top faces are also
flush, before screwing each end into place with 2 x 75mm
woodscrews. Add the remaining joists to complete the
frame for the decking.
With the base assembly complete, slide it into place
against the wall. To ensure it is central on the wall plate,
mark the centre of the wall plate and the base and drop a
plumb line from the wall plate - adjust the base position
until the line and centre mark coincide.

Step 8
Get an assistant to hold the first post in place, housing it
in the pocket formed where the base frame assembly and
edge pieces meet.
Have an assistant (or even two) help you lift one of the
runners, batten at the lower edge and facing the wall,
countersinks facing outwards into place against the post
tops.
